Summary
A recentFortniteleak suggests that fans could soon see Godzilla stomping across the island. Coming hot off the heels of the battle royale’s Marvel-themed season,Fortniteappears to be leaning into collaborations more and more. A number of Disney villains were recently added to the game’s shop, as well as characters from Pixar’sThe Incredibles.
Fortniteis currently in the middle of its short Chapter 2 Remix season. Once the season comes to a close, the game will introduce players to a whole new island in Chapter 6. Epic Games is also taking this moment tointroduce changes to its Fortnite Crew subscription benefitsand the price of the battle pass. The changes seek to add benefits to players who engage with more than just the battle royale side of the game. All of this has been done in an effort to expandFortnite’s presence with modes likeLEGO Fortnite,Fortnite Festival, Rocket Racing, and the upcomingFortnite OG.
Prominent leaker Samleakss, whorecently teased an upcoming crossover withCyberpunk 2077, stated on Twitter that fans could soon see Godzilla appear in bothFortniteandRocket League. In addition to hearing about the potential for a Monsterverse crossover, Samleakss spotted the Monarch logo on an arcade machine in the teaser for season 17 ofRocket League. Monarch is a scientific organization within the Monsterverse, leading many fans to believe the symbol confirms the collaboration could be coming very soon.
Fortnite Could Include More Monsters Than Just Godzilla
It’s important to note that, while the Monarch symbol could indicate a crossover with the Monsterverse, it doesn’t necessarily guarantee the presence of Godzilla. Fans could see any number of monsters make their debut inFortniteorRocket League. This latest leak seems to be in line with theories that the battle royale’s newest chapter will include traditional Japanese themes. It was recently leaked thatDemon/Oni masks could appear on the island soon.
While many fans are excited by the prospect of seeing Godzilla, it’s unclear how the collaboration might manifest. Epic Games has a fondness for bringing a wide variety of skins to the battle royale, but the design of the monster itself may not translate into an outfit easily. However, Godzilla and other monsters could appear on the island as part of an event. Seeing the colossal titan wreak havoc around the map would make for quite a spectacle.
Fortnitehas been on quite a roll with collaborations lately. Its Chapter 2 Remix has been full of crossovers with famous rappers,including the late artist Juice WRLD. It would seem that Epic Games has no plans of slowing down, which is good news for fans who enjoy these partnerships.
