initial launch and the project from Epic Games continues to be a multimedia cash cow. The battle royale game has seen crossovers from all over the pop culture, with everything from

debuting in game last fall, to
a digital concert
featuring hip-hop star Travis Scott. There seems to be no rules for the cartoony shooter-builder and no places that the Epic Games team is not willing to go.

just concluded its fourth season of chapter two, which tied into the Marvel comic universe, and
ended in a world altering battle between players and the planet consuming villain Galactus
. While rumors have been swirling for a while as to where
Fortnite
will go, fans finally have at least some answers.

It has been confirmed in a new trailer that debuted on
Fortnite’s
official YouTube
channel
that characters from
The Mandalorian
will be making their way into the ever popular battle royale as a part of the
Fortnite Chapter Two S
eason 5 Battle Pass. The trailer shows off skins of “heroes from all realities” that include Mando himself, a Baby Yoda (or Grogu) companion, as well as a Gladiator named Menace, a pancake cowboy named Mancake, Mave a shape shifting barbarian warrior, and a few others.

WHAT THIS MEANS
This is very exciting news for those who are still hopping on the battle bus, looking for those sweet victory royales. Epic Games does not seem to be slowing down on their uber popular game, and why would they? It is bigger than it has ever been.
Now, if past seasons of
Fortnite
are to be any indication, this is only the start. The game has dipped its toe in the
Star Wars
water before and now it is time for them to go all in. We have just seen what they can do with a true tie in with this past
Marvel season
, the potential for a full-on season centered around a galaxy far far away could be something special.

It may be early to think about with this season’s end already, with
Chapter Two
Season 5 capping off on March 15th, 2021, but could fans get an epic Star Wars themed season-ending event. Perhaps a Death Star showing up in the sky, a trench run and a giant explosion to finish things off. Really, the possibilities are endless. Last year we got a taste of what
Star Wars x Fortnite
could look like, this next season is time for Epic to realize a full scale crossover could and should be.
