Rumors in the Fortnite scene indicate a collaboration with the Italian brainrot meme Tung Tung Tung Sahur could be in the works.
Few things in the world of Fortnite are genuinely a surprise anymore. We've seen collaborations with everything from the Power Rangers to South Park since the New Year, but leakers recently revealed a rumored crossover unlike anything before. Fortnite might soon collaborate with Tung Tung Tung Sahur, the AI-generated "Italian brainrot" character.
Italian brainrot will soon invade Fortnite with Tung Tung Tung Sahur
Brainrot has become a fixture in Fortnite of late, with the rise of various "Steal the Brainrot" maps that pull as many as 1 million players on peak days. It was only a matter of time before brainrot memes found their way into Fortnite proper.
According to leaker Blortzen, a Tung Tung Tung Sahur crossover is rumored to be in the works.
The leaker revealed in a post that a Tung Tung Tung Sahur Fortnite skin is coming to the game. Although there is no information regarding when, the post merely states that it's a "rumor." Unfortunately, for the Tung Tung Tung Sahur fans, that's all the information available at the moment.
These leaks are usually barebones in terms of information, especially this early. We shall see what further information, if any, comes to light following this report. Still, Tung Tung Tung Sahur joining the likes of South Park and Solo Leveling is on-brand.
What is this character all about?
As mentioned above, Tung Tung Tung Sahur is what many consider a "Italian brainrot" meme. The character is described as an anthropomorphic wooden plank who holds a baseball bat.
It's rooted in Indonesian culture, specifically regarding Ramadan. An Indonesian TikToker named noxaasht created the character and it has since become a viral sensation.
With Fortnite recently launching another iteration of its annual Lantern Fest, which revolves around Ramadan, this collaboration would make sense if it were to launch soon. However, it's unclear if the Fortnite x Tung Tung Tung Sahur crossover is more than just a rumor.
We'll have to wait and see if more details come to light in the coming days or weeks, but this is a Fortnite partnership for the ages.
