Great news for Fortnite enthusiasts: It looks like legendary fighters from Mortal Kombat might be dropping into the Fortnite universe soon. If the buzz is to be believed, characters like Raiden, Kitana, and the ever-intense Scorpion could make their debut in the popular battle royale on March 28 of next year. Add to that, there’s chatter about a potential crossover with Dragon Ball Daima, which might see alternate versions of Goku and Vegeta joining the game.
Currently, as Fortnite rolls through Chapter 6 Season 2, insiders are abuzz with talk of a mini-season landing in May. This special season might just be waving a lightsaber, considering its rumored alignment with Star Wars’ May 4 celebrations. Though there’s radio silence on which characters might jet in for this crossover, fans are crossing fingers for the likes of Cal Kestis and Andor to appear on the island.
In a flurry of tweets, Fortnite leaker SpushFNBR spilled the beans on more characters from Mortal Kombat possibly arriving at the end of March. Expect some slick outfits for Kitana, Scorpion, and Raiden—plus a treasure trove of accessories to boot, ranging from back blings to harvesters and emotes. With perhaps 15 cosmetics up for grabs, this partnership could become one of Epic Games’ grandest yet. HYPEX, another trusty leaker, estimates the entire bundle at 3,300 V-Bucks.
The skins set to hit the store are each pegged at 1,500 V-Bucks. Raiden’s contemplative Amulet back bling goes for 400 V-Bucks, while his Staff pickaxe commands 800 V-Bucks. Scorpion’s vibrant Flame Skull back bling and his Katana Duo pickaxe round out the arsenal, with Kitana’s Steel Fan pickaxe and Fan Fado emote both adding flair to any battle.
Already, the Chapter 6 Season 2 battle pass has introduced Sub-Zero, complete with Mortal Kombat-themed accessories, promising players icy powers to match their cunning. While there’s speculation that Scorpion might soon stamp his fiery mark with his own item, Epic Games has yet to confirm any whispers from the grapevine.
As if that’s not enticing enough, we’ve got more notes from leaks suggesting that Sabrina Carpenter could soon belt out tunes as a major artist at the next Fortnite Festival, slated for kickoff on April 8. However, we’re all well aware that in the gaming world, rumors can shift, and projects might stall or transform without notice. Still, with such tantalizing crossovers brewing and fresh content just around the digital corner, Fortnite fans have every reason to look forward to upcoming adventures on the horizon.
