Epic Games has done a tremendous job of striking deals with other video game developers and publishers to get their characters added toFortnite. The free-to-play battle royale title has managed to unite PlayStation and Xbox characters in the same game, with Kratos, Aloy, and Nathan Drake all being featured alongside Master Chief and Marcus Fenix.Fortnitehas included characters from some third party titles, too, and hopefully more will be on the way soon.
FromBorderlandsPsychos to Vi and Jinx fromLeague of Legends, gaming icons serve as some of the very best crossover content withinFortnite. Considering that Chapter 4 is beginning with the addition of theDoom Slayer andThe Witcher 3’s version of Geralt, it seems like game crossovers are continuing to be a priority. As such, there is a chance Epic will partner with a few other standout franchises for new content.

Overwatch in Fortnite
If Epic Games is looking for a partnership that could provide content for months,Overwatchis a franchise to keep in mind. Not only could weapons like Tracer’s pulse pistols be added as weapons within matches for players to make use of, but Brigitte’s mace andGenji’s dragonblademake for some perfect Harvesting Tools. Additionally, characters like Cassidy, Soldier 76, and Reaper will not look out of place holding guns, as they are seen doing this within their own universe.
Mass Effect in Fortnite
Much likeOverwatch, BioWare’sMass Effectfranchise is an IP that can provide a massive variety of cosmetics. Female and Male versions of Commander Shepard can be added alongside an Omni-Tool for harvesting materials, and a number of companions would fit intoFortnite’s art stylewell. From Liara and Tali to even a bulkier figure like Grunt or Wrex, there are some excellent options available to Epic Games. Such a pairing could be a perfect way to build hype forMass Effect 4whenever it gets closer to its official release.
The Last of Us in Fortnite
Though Neil Druckmann shut down therumors that suggestedThe Last of Uscontent was coming toFortnite, perhaps it will arrive some time down the road. Characters like Joel, Ellie, and Abby have become iconic, and even Clicker skins could prove to be popular additions. From Abby’s hammer to Ellie’s switchblade, Harvesting Tools are easy to imagine, and a fun emote could see Ellie reading out of her pun book. WithUnchartedcontent already coming toFortnite, it would not be too surprising to see another beloved Naughty Dog series represented on the island.
Elden Ring in Fortnite
Though theleaked survey mentioning Iron Fist Alexander and Melinawent nowhere, it would still be interesting to seeElden Ringrepresented withinFortnite. Malenia’s reputation as a brutally tough boss would make her a great choice for a skin, as many would surely be afraid to see her lurking in Anvil Square. An emote that incorporates her signature Waterfowl Dance would be a nice touch, too. Aside from Malenia and the two previously rumored skins, Radagon’s damaged and glowing body ensures he would look great withinFortnite’s engine.
Though these four franchises would be a lot of fun to see represented, they are far from the only routes that could be used for moreFortnitecrossovers. For instance, aStar Wars Jedi: Survivorskin focused on Cal Kestis could add to the game’s long lineup ofStar Warscosmetics. ADead Spacecrossover featuring Isaacand a plasma cutter would be memorable, as would aCallisto Protocolpartnership that incorporates Jacob and his stun baton. With so many games to pick from,Fortnitewill have crossover material for years to come.
Fortniteis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
