Leaks and rumors surrounding the next big Fortnite collaboration are a huge part of the game’s community, and the newest claim to hit the internet is that Rambo is going to be coming to the battle royale. Fortnite is no stranger to adding classic film franchises to the game’s crossover roster, but Rambo is an intriguing choice.
The first Rambo movie hit theaters in 1982 with First Blood, and it has since spawned an entire series filled with high-octane action. Over the years, the titular character, John Rambo, has become one of actor Sylvester Stallone’s most notable roles. The Rambo series is one of the most iconic 80s movie franchises, and it could find a surprising new home in the Fortnite universe.

New Leaks Claim That Rambo Is Coming to Fortnite
These claims come from leakers Wenso and DrCacahuette. All leaks and rumors should be taken with a grain of salt, but John Rambo potentially being the next Fortnite crossover would be an exciting addition, especially for action movie lovers. As is expected with in-game collaborations, these leaks claim that new Fortnite skins and items will be coming to the Item Shop that are based on the beloved action hero.

According to the leaks, the Rambo crossover is expected to include three different outfits, an arrow quiver Backbling, a Pickaxe that resembles John Rambo’s knife, a helicopter Glider, and a special emote and wrap. If these rumors turn out to be true, it wouldn’t be the character’s first time in a video game. There has been a Call of Duty John Rambo skin, and he was even added as a character in Mortal Kombat 11. The Rambo franchise has even spawned its own video game spin-offs before.
Right now, the leak has yet to reveal if there is a launch date for the rumored Rambo crossover. Bringing the character to Fortnite would add another major movie character into the mix. John Rambo would help round out the line of action hero skins that have been included over the years, like how Fortnite‘s Terminator crossover introduced the T-800 and Sarah Connor. Other franchises like Alien, Ghostbusters, and Predator brought even more classic franchises into the spotlight. Some of these 80s blockbusters may not be as popular as they once were, but they are a great way to introduce such iconic series to a brand-new audience that may not be familiar with them.

This rumored crossover could also start to lay the groundwork to get people hyped about the Rambo series again, as there is currently a new movie in the works. The Rambo prequel is expected to come out next summer, and a Fortnite collaboration could be a great way to build some early excitement about the upcoming film. Fortnite has become one of the most popular ways for Hollywood to advertise projects that are coming out. Whether it’s a movie or a musician’s brand-new album, the game has grown beyond its gaming roots and has become a huge marketing tool. Only time will tell if the Rambo crossover rumors are true.
