Here is what we expect from the confirmed Fallout x Fortnite collaboration.
Fortnite has dropped a significant teaser, some would call it a bombshell, ahead of the Chapter 5 Season 3 launch. The game's official social media accounts have confirmed a Fallout x Fortnite collaboration will occur next season. Although the expectations are unclear, the season's supposed 'apocalypse' theme paints a perfect backdrop for this crossover. Here's everything we know so far about this teaser.
What to expect with the Fallout x Fortnite collaboration
It's pretty early to accurately predict what Epic Games and Bethesda have planned for this collaboration. At the very least, fans can expect in-game cosmetic items. Based on the gas mask character depicted in the image, it's possible this could be a Fallout x Fortnite skin.
Additionally, Epic Games could have plans for a Fallout point of interest (POI) on the Chapter 5 Season 3 map. However, that would depend on the level of this crossover. We expect to learn more as leaks surface over the coming weeks. For reference, Chapter 5 Season 3 is slated to begin on Friday, May 24.
A massive Fallout x Fortnite teaser dropped on May 21, depicting what players can expect. The clip showcases the Brotherhood of Steel, presumably a Fortnite skin in the upcoming season. Additionally, you can spot a new healing item, potentially Nuka-Cola, and a Harpoon Gun.
