Deliverance 2 Devs Address Fortnite Crossover Speculation

Warhorse Studios recently addressed some buzz around a potential collaboration between Fortnite and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, expressing surprise at the idea. Fortnite has become known for its massive crossover events and currently boasts tie-ins with popular franchises like Mortal Kombat, Adventure Time, and artist Sabrina Carpenter.

As Fortnite approaches the end of Chapter 6, Season 2, fans are eagerly speculating about what’s next. Informants have hinted that Epic Games might soon drop a Star Wars-themed mini-season, bringing a slew of new characters to the game via the battle pass and Item Shop. The speculation includes a short season in May, aligning conveniently with May 4, a date celebrated by Star Wars enthusiasts, so there might be truth to these whispers.

Warhorse Studios took to Twitter to inquire if Epic Games might be privy to details they weren’t aware of concerning their potential crossover. A hefty leak had suggested that Fortnite might soon partner with titles like Doom: The Dark Ages, Death Stranding, Hitman, and even celebrities like Jack Black. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 was among the rumored collaborations, sparking curiosity about characters like Henry or Sir Hans making their way to the Fortnite island. While crossovers like this are not out of Fortnite’s realm, some fans found the pairing rather intriguing.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is renowned for its immersive RPG experience and historical fidelity, so the thought of its characters suddenly wielding firearms in a battle royale has left fans divided. While the prospect excited some, others found it a bit jarring. With Warhorse Studios’ recent comment, the rumor might not hold much water. Following their tweet, many fans began to doubt the legitimacy of all the leaked crossover announcements, suggesting they might merely be fabrications.

Fortnite often becomes the subject of ambitious rumors due to its reputation for engaging with various franchises, both from the gaming industry and beyond. This latest rumor with Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 shows that it’s always wise to keep a bit of skepticism. While some leaks do see fruition, others fade away unnoticed. Despite any temporary letdowns, many players remain enthusiastic about the future of both franchises, hopeful that each will continue to thrive.
