From his gaming chair to his gaming monitor to his gaming PC to so much more, Ninja’s Fortnite gaming setup is a digital warrior’s dream come true. And just who is Ninja, you might ask? Born Richard Tyler Blevins—but better known by his trusty alias—Ninja is currently the most popular gamer on Twitch (to the tune of about 13 million followers). Along with all those followers, there’s come a slew of peripheral perks, including sponsorship deals, a recording contract, a Super Bowl spot, and an ESPN magazine cover shoot. It’s therefore only natural that Ninja spends at least some of those hard-earned dollars on more gaming gear.
Consequently, Ninja’s Fortnite gaming setup is as extensive as his skill set. But what exactly does the veritable Twitch sensation keep in his tech-laden arsenal? Today, you’re going to find out, with what might be the most comprehensive list we’ve compiled since Casey Neistat (meanwhile, our rundown of PewDiePie‘s gear might need its own separate website soon). Without further ado, we present Ninja’s Fortnite gaming setup, settings, and gear.
