Rumor has it that Fortnite might soon collide with the legendary Mortal Kombat universe, adding more spice to its already eclectic mix of collaborations. Over the years, Fortnite has welcomed characters from every corner of pop culture—from the pages of Marvel and Star Wars to the realms of iconic video games like Tomb Raider and Halo. This potential crossover with Mortal Kombat could introduce a new dynamic to the battle royale, featuring beloved fighters Scorpion and Sub-Zero.
Fortnite’s island has previously played host to figures like Kratos from God of War, inspiring players to indulge in fantasy matchups. Leakers are swirling with mentions of potential future tie-ins with Devil May Cry and Like a Dragon, not to mention whispers about a revisitation with the espionage favorite, Metal Gear Solid. With such an impressive track record of team-ups, it’s no stretch to imagine Mortal Kombat’s ninjas jumping into the fray soon.
Recently, a Fortnite tipster, ShiinaBR, hinted on a Reddit forum that Scorpion and Sub-Zero might make their way into Fortnite with Chapter 6 Season 2. The gossip suggests that these new skins could each brandish unique Mythic weapons or powers, adding further excitement to the battle challenges.
As fans anticipate the February 21 launch of Chapter 6, Season 2, Fortnite’s teaser campaign promises a heist-inspired season, potentially complementing Scorpion and Sub-Zero’s stealthy traits quite nicely. Moreover, the familiar face of Fortnite’s Midas is set for a comeback in this new chapter, alongside some possible quirky additions like a pickle-themed skin—could it be Pickle Rick?
While the thought of Mortal Kombat warriors battling it out on Fortnite’s vibrant landscape is exhilarating, it’s worth taking these rumors with a pinch of skepticism until Epic Games or NetherRealm Studios gives their nod of confirmation. But with the new season just around the corner, official news might not be distant.
And for those who haven’t yet delved into Fortnite’s multifaceted world, it offers more than just a battle royale—it’s an arena of creative dreamscapes. One can band together with friends, explore diverse gameplay options, or simply enjoy the myriad experiences on offer, all bolstered by the versatile Unreal Engine 5. With cross-platform play and a rich variety of modes, Fortnite keeps finding ways to keep its vast community engaged and entertained.
