The season launched with
Star Wars’ The Mandalorian joining the battle
, and has since been followed with gaming and film icons from a variety of franchises, the biggest of which have included
God of War
’s Kratos
, DC’s
Green Arrow,
and even the Predator.

WHAT THIS MEANS
Epic Games are clearly aiming to turn
Fortnite
into the
Super Smash Bros
of pop culture, pulling in characters from across a variety of worlds. This is something that has always existed with
Fortnite,
dating back to the original ‘Thanos Mode’ crossover which was released alongside
Avengers: Infinity War
in 2018. However, the crossover-oriented nature of
Fortnite
has been more prominent than ever with the latest season, as almost every new skin has pulled from a totally different world.
Some leaks have suggested a Lara Croft
skin from the
Tomb Raider
franchise may also be on its way based on data-mined information. Speculation such as this seems to indicate the crossover trend is showing no signs of slowing down — something which is sure to anger many classic
Fortnite
fans who often prefer when the franchise focuses on original designs.
