The seasons may follow each other and bring new things, but the pattern repeats itself every time: Epic Games can’t help but pull a whole bunch of collaborations out of its hat for players to snap up the latest skins in vogue.

Naruto, Star Wars, … Pop culture celebrates on Fortnite
Decidedly, with the iconic battle royale of Epic Games, we will have seen everything in terms of collaborations. We’re not going to go over all the crossovers that we’ve seen since the start of the game, but there are! And Fortnite is not regarding to slow down because there are already beautiful people who will land on the island where the players shoot each other. Recently, the Naruto manga universe has expanded through new characters to pick up from the in-game store and one of pop-culture’s greatest antagonists, namely Darth Vader, has packed his bags there even though another member of the Skywalker family might come and steal the show!
However, if you thought that would be all, that’s pretty bad knowledge regarding Epic Games. Recently, dataminers have taken a dip in the depths of the game’s code to unearth new nuggets regarding the game’s next cosmetic additions. Once once more, they did not return empty-handed, as evidenced by the message posted by user ShiinaBR on Twitter!
A Chapter 3 that wants to terrorize us?
Always as eager to perpetuate collaborations with certain licenses while approaching new ones, Epic Games would have contacted the studios behind the famous Dead by Daylight to set up a crossover between the two games. At least, that’s what the recent discoveries of dataminers who have put forward one of the survivors of Dead by Daylightnamely Meg Thomas, as the next skin. In return, the horror game would see adding a small reference to Fortnite in his universe through a keychain representing one of the piñata llamas from the battle royale.

For the moment, no declaration of one of the two actors of the collaboration is to be announced. Faced with this, the dataminer iFireMonkey offered an explanation: it might be that it is not a future collaboration, but the remains of an unfinished proposal between the two parties since all this dates from March 2022. Nevertheless, the diffusion of this leak is not insignificant since it might have the aim of waking up the two communities of the game so that the idea of this collaboration is re-examined! The case remains to be taken with a grain of salt, but it has the merit of intriguing us: therefore, to be continued!
