    ‘Fortnite’ Leaks Reveal Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Green Arrow & More

    Looks like the current season is taking skins from all over the multiverse, as recent leaks for Fornite have revealed a variety of new skins joining this season. During the Game Awards, they revealed Halo‘s Master Chief and two characters from The Walking Dead were joining. Many wondered if we would also see more skins from Marvel after they took over the last season. Well, it looks like they weren’t quite done yet, as a group of well-known Fortnite hackers took to Twitter to share a variety of new skins showing off Black Panther, Captain Marvel, and even a comic-accurate Taskmaster.

    That is not all, as we also got the reveal for a DC skin based on the popular CW show Arrow will be included in the game based on Stephen Amell‘s iconic rendition. We also get a good look at the entire set, which reveals the character’s iconic punching arrow and a quiver.

    Fornite has been turning into a center for pop culture. This season also saw the addition of Kratos and The Mandalorian‘s Din. So, we can expect a lot more appearances throughout this season. Nintendo fans are hoping for the potential addition of Samus Aran from Metroid. She would make complete sense within the wacky Battle Royale world, and it seems there are no limits on who they might include at this point. So, whoever had their fantasy of having Stephen Amell‘s Green Arrow take on Deadpool can do so now. Now that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate announced Sephiroth as their next DLC character, could we see Sora end up on Fornite?

    ‘Fortnite’ Reveals ‘Halo’ and ‘The Walking Dead’ Skins

    Well, we kind of knew this was going to happen. Halo‘s Master Chief was officially unveiled for Fortnite. The big surprise however is that they are also adding Blood Gulch as a brand new map with the gaming type. It was even presented in a nice tribute to the iconic web series Red vs. Blue.

    That is not all, as they also revealed that popular The Walking Dead characters Daryll and Michonne are joining the popular battle royale series. Not much was said about them but it looks like this season will be inspired by many different corners of popular culture.

  • ‘Fortnite’: Leak Reveals First Look at ‘God of War’ Kratos Skin

    ‘Fortnite’: Leak Reveals First Look at ‘God of War’ Kratos Skin

    Looks like we have a brand new leak for Fortnite‘s latest season. Just a week ago, it was revealed that our favorite Mandalorian would be joining the latest season once Galactus tried to eat the planet. The Marvel event has come to a major turning point, as everyone faced the Celestial down with an army of Battle Buses. Before his defeat, he did manage to pull out the planet’s core which has thrown everything into chaos. It’s the perfect set-up for a brand new season of the popular Battle Royale game. Now that the new season has started, we are about to get one more legendary addition. @HYPEX, who is a well-known Fortnite leaker, has revealed the first look at Kratos skin for the game.

    He looks fantastic and showcases how Fortnite’s aesthetic really works for almost any kind of franchise. I do wonder if we also get variations of his skin that pay tribute to the original trilogy, or they’ll stick with his iconic beard. Funny enough, he leaked it mere minutes after PlayStation prepared an entire audio presentation that teased his upcoming inclusion in the game.

    It is uncertain if he might be an exclusive skin for the PlayStation. We could see each console get one exclusive character to join from their respective franchises. I am not sure though if we get Mario with some guns. There is also a good chance that the “Join the Hunt” tagline might be used to include a variety of characters from any kind of medium. Hunt could be a perfect way to add a skin for the Predator. They might just add Alien so everyone can replay the iconic showdown between the two. There is a lot of potentials, so who knows which direction this season might be heading.

  • ‘Fortnite’: Leak Reveals First Look at ‘The Mandalorian’ Skin

    ‘Fortnite’: Leak Reveals First Look at ‘The Mandalorian’ Skin

    It looks like we have some more Fortnite news. The recent season focused on a variety of Marvel characters, which included Iron Man, Wolverine, Venom, and many more. Now, it looks like we are getting one more addition from Disney, as the creators behind the game Epic have accidentally released a promo for the inclusion of The Mandalorian characters alongside its new subscription-based model. User @FortTory, who is known for sharing leaks from the game, shared the visuals that revealed the main character from the Disney+ show.

    His inclusion makes a lot of sense, especially now as the season is slowly nearing its end. Ironically, this isn’t the first time that they revealed a new character during the promotion of Fortnite Crew, which will offer people brand new characters, and will kick-off with the upcoming fifth season. There is a good chance that the overalls season might continue the deal with Disney and see the addition of other iconic characters from the franchise.

    It isn’t the first time that the galaxy far far away was included in the game, as they had an event last year that gave people access to Kylo Ren as a skin. There are also some Stormtrooper variants already in the game. Fortnite has developed into a hub for various pop culture properties at this point. It includes characters from a wide variety of franchises with DC, Marvel, John Wick, and so many more. It isn’t a surprise if you consider Fortnite‘s popularity on streaming services. We will see what other iconic franchises will be joining the game in the future as it continues to grow.

  • Data Leaks Reveal Spider-Man & Black Panther Coming to ‘Fortnite’

    Data Leaks Reveal Spider-Man & Black Panther Coming to ‘Fortnite’

    Once again we are diving into the world of data leaks. To add some variety, we are going to explore a different game. Today’s focus will be one of Twitch’s most popular games, Fortnite. Yes, even Epic’s game isn’t safe from data miners. They just entered their fourth chapter that was titled Nexus War. It is a massive crossover with Marvel that features characters like Thor, Iron Man, Galactus, and many more. The iconic Battle Royale map has also been completely overhauled for the event. Looks like there is still more to come, as a few data miners have uncovered achievements that hint at the addition of Spider-Man at some point.

    It all started when it was uncovered that a variety of costumes are included in the game from Marvel that has yet to be confirmed. Not too long ago, it was leaked that a potential Silver Surfer outfit would be added at some point. Most of the design already seemed ready to launch.

    These were confirmed by data miners ShiinaBR and HYPEX, who then also shared the visuals of the in-game bundle in action. These users have been actively sharing details on the massive crossover event. It doesn’t end there, as they also found unique sounds that would also confirm the appearance of a Black Panther skin.

    Now, let’s get to the big reveal with the least evidence so far. The inclusion of Silver Surfer and Black Panther does confirm some credibility to what they found within the game’s data. In addition to these reveals, there was a curious inclusion of achievements for Spider-Man. Most notably, one that includes his iconic logo. There is also data that suggests that Carnage is also a potential skin within the game’s code.

    Unlike Silver Surfer, we have no idea what designs these characters will have. Still, Fortnite art design is great in translating these characters into 3D models. Iron Man, She-Hulk, and Doom look great in-game already. So, these additions are going to fit right in. This season has been a massive event with countless new characters being added to the game. It will be interesting to see just how big this will end by the time Marvel and Epic have revealed all their plans.

  • Thor Confirmed for ‘Fortnite’ Season 4

    Thor Confirmed for ‘Fortnite’ Season 4

    Fortnite somehow has become the center of all pop culture. The game has just ended it’s fourth season Splash Down. Players got the chance to unlock Aquaman as a skin in the game. He isn’t the first hero to join the free-to-play giant. The game already includes various pop culture icons like Joker, Batman, Catwoman, Deadpool, Captain America and many more.

    They had an event where one person got to play as Thanos. If a player found the Infinity Gauntlet on the map, he would become the mad titan. Just recently, anyone who plays through Marvel’s Avengers beta even can unlock unique weapons from Hulk and the Hulkbuster. Looks like Marvel isn’t quite done yet as they revealed that the God of Thunder will arrive for the game with an announcement coming later this month.

    No matter how one feels about Fortnite, the game has grown at an astounding rate. Personally, never got into it but did love the way it handled world building. Every season leads into the next and is teased throughout the previous one. This announcement also confirms the leaks that Galactus will show up at one point. It is uncertain if he will be a skin or just part of that seasons’ storyline. The reveal of Thor also confirms that he will be wearing his latest design. Will point out though, that there is a still a chance that we get his more iconic costume. Still, this might be a way for Marvel to get more people interested in checking out his latest series. Also, it may have some tie-ins to the upcoming release of Avengers.
