Crossovers have been a huge component toFortnite, helping to take the game to new heights in the past couple of years. Surprisingly, Epic Games has been able to partner with all sorts of companies, IPs, andfranchises over the years from movies like The Matrix, games includingGod of War, and even both major comic labels, DC and Marvel. In fact, previous seasons have even been devoted to particular brands such as when players worked with various Marvel characters to stop the world eating villain, Galactus.
Epic has even used these crossovers to help promote big events, such as The Mandalorian as well as a recent addition to theFortniteshop which adds in Boba Fettin advance of his upcoming show on Disney Plus. Crossovers are big business inFortnite, and as such, remain a big part of the game’s continued success. New rumors indicate that even more Xbox content is likely on the way, joining up with the previously released Master Chief.
