While some of you appear to be surprised Yeager is the first character to be officially revealed as part of Fortnite’s incoming collab, earlier leaks suggested this would be the case. In fact, Yeager was the only character named in the leaks. Other Fortnite crossovers have introduced a handful of characters at the same time, so it’s likely Attack on Titan’s original protagonist won’t be the only character from the anime to join The Loop in season two.
Confirmation of the crossover continues a trend of Epic going heavy with its anime collaborations in Fortnite, and for good reason. It tested the waters withDragon Balllast year, resulting in the announcement becomingFortnite’s most-liked tweet in just 13 hours. Dragon Ball has crossed over with Fortnite again since then, and elements and characters fromNarutoandMy Hero Academiahave also joined the game.
There was confusion earlier this week overwhen exactly season two will begin. Epic cleared up that confusion, confirming downtime for season two will start during the early hours of Friday morning. We now know the season will be called Mega and that it will feature Attack on Titan elements, plus,if the Shockwave Hammer stays vaulted, the controversial weapon might not be coming with us.
