Fortnite x Mortal Kombat: Release date and what to expect
This information arrived on Feb. 14 via Fortnite leaker FNBRintel, who said the Fortnite x Mortal Kombat collaboration will drop in Chapter 6 Season 2. For reference, the following season goes live on Friday, Feb. 21. That means we could just be one week away from this seemingly improbable crossover.
FNBRintel reported the collaboration will feature two skins and two in-game Mythic items. While we don't know the specific characters or Mythics, the possibilities are endless. The Mortal Kombat franchise is rich with iconic warriors with equally iconic abilities.
However, we won't know until more details emerge. In any case, this is an exciting time for Fortnite and Mortal Kombat fans, especially since this crossover seemed unlikely.
What MK characters do we expect to see in Fortnite?
The obvious choices are Mortal Kombat's poster boys: Scorpion and Sub-Zero. While Liu Kang is the franchise's primary hero, Scorpion and Sub-Zero are the most recognizable MK characters. We expect to see Scorpion's iconic Spear at the minimum for potential Mythic items.
The other one could be Sub-Zero's freezing ability. However, as we said previously, so many Mortal Kombt characters with unique skills could work in Fortnite. Let's not forget the inevitable Emotes, for which Scorpion's patented "Get over here" would be perfect.
Ultimately, we won't know the finer details until next week as Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 rapidly approaches.
