Dressed in their national team kit, the footy aces will be available as Outfits that players can purchase from the in-game store.
Fornite maker Epic Games confirmed the new skins in a blog post on Wednesday.
“On June 11 at 8pm ET, both players’ likeness will be available as separate Outfits or together in the Kane & Reus Bundle,” the gaming behemoth said.
Each character has their own special emote and back bling.

Tottenham Talisman Kane has an emote called “HurriKane” emote, while Dortmund’s Reus is equipped with the “Marcinho” emote.
Keen football fans will note that each emote takes its name from the respective nickname of each player.
It’s not immediately clear how much the outfits will cost.
For the individual skins, which will come packaged with the emotes and back bling, players can expect to fork out a little more than 1,500 V-Bucks.
