Fortnite Leak Reveals Big New Game of Thrones Crossover

A new leak suggests that Game of Thrones could debut in Fortnite in an upcoming collaborative event. The crossover with Epic Games’ battle royale comes several years after the show’s divisive 2019 final season, which was widely regarded as a letdown by longtime viewers. The world of Westeros will join many other popular fantasy IPs in Fortnite, such as The Witcher and Dungeons & Dragons.

Fortnite is known as one of the most collaborative video games, popularizing gaming trends like the Battle Pass, limited-time Item Shop, and crossovers with popular characters from other media. A recent popular crossover was Fortnite‘s island overhaul of The Simpsons‘ Springfield in Chapter 6: Mini Season 2. Similarly, South Park recently dropped skins, in-game items, and its own mini battle pass. Collaborations aren’t limited to fictional characters though, as the game’s modernized Guitar Hero clone Fortnite Festival has seen Festival Icons like Sabrina Carpenter, The Weeknd, and most recently, Chappell Roan crossing over to Fortnite.

Fortnite x Game of Thrones Leaks Suggest Collaboration is Under Development

According to a new leak circulating on Twitter, Fortnite appears to be getting ready for a Game of Thrones collaboration that will be arriving “soon.” Well-known Fortnite leakers HYPEX and AdiraFNInfo shared early indications that a Game of Thrones collab is under development, with no additional known information on a release date or the contents of the crossover itself. Epic Games hasn’t officially confirmed any details or hinted at Game of Thrones heading to Fortnite at this stage, meaning this remains a teaser for fans to speculate on. This arrives shortly after a similar event online, as leaks of a Fortnite and Kingdom Hearts collaboration sent gamers into a frenzy.

Fan reaction has been divided on a Fortnite crossover with Game of Thrones due to the fantasy series’ fall from grace in the 2010s, with some gamers wondering if this has come too late from GoT‘s cultural peak. Despite this, the community has debated on what content could arrive, with requests for Jon Snow, Daenerys Targaryen, and Tyrion Lannister Fortnite skins, and others are speculating about dragon gliders dropping from the Battle Bus. Considering Epic’s pattern for previous collabs, it’s likely that gamers may see event-specific gameplay features like Fortnite‘s South Park Stick of Truth mythic item, widely considered to be one of Fortnite‘s most OP items ever.

The prospect of Game of Thrones entering Epic’s battle royale is exciting, but not without questions about its inclusion. Since the gritty fantasy show’s finale, which was widely considered by viewers to be one of the worst endings in television history, its cultural relevance has somewhat faded. The recent spinoff series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms was warmly received by many, but the second season of prequel show House of the Dragon suffered from more mixed reactions from Westeros enthusiasts. As these shows have screened in recent years, Epic Games may even choose to collaborate with House of the Dragon and A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms in Fortnite, rather than the original Game of Thrones series.

In spite of the reservations about the Fortnite x Game of Thrones leaks, the IP deserves a worthy inclusion in the world of gaming. There have been a few adaptations of the series in the 2010s, but none have achieved the reaction expected of one of the most culturally important pieces of media. Game of Thrones: A Telltale Game Series received mixed reviews as it failed to keep up the momentum from its Red Wedding opening, and Cyanide’s Game of Thrones was panned by critics and fans alike following its 2012 release due to clunky mechanics and visuals. Even recent gaming reworks have failed to capture players, like Game of Thrones: Kingsroad and its aggressive microtransactions. Due to this, fans are hoping that Epic Games can do the IP justice, and finally create a suitable space for Game of Thrones to occupy in the gaming landscape.
