Fortnite is currently apparently in rapid succession. After the start of Season 5 in Chapter 2, there were already rumors yesterday about a cross-over with God of War. Xbox fans are apparently also supposed to be served.
Epic Games apparently doesn’t want to leave any console fan behind with Fortnite. After there was speculation yesterday about a cross-over with God of War including the Kratos skin, Xbox fans may now also get their money’s worth. Because with Halo, Microsoft’s premium franchise could also play a role in the long-running battle royale in the future.
I’ve tracked the source of this original image to 4Chan.
Guy who anonymously posted it claims he has a friend who works at epic who was right about Salty Towers and Mandalorian Mythics.

Dataminer and leaker have now apparently shared the first pictures via 4chan that were found in the Fortnite files. You can see that the Master Chief is apparently already in the skin selection screen. There is also a small Warthog and a Pelican, two vehicles from the Halo universe. In short: In addition to the Master Chief, several Halo content could find its way into Fortnite as part of a cross-over action.
This would make Epic Games happy both Sony fans (with God of War) and Microsoft supporters (with Halo). An official confirmation of the story is still pending.

Before that, Fortnite had already brought immensely successful crossovers with Marvel, for example. In season 5 there is such an action in the context of the Star Wars series “The Mandalorian” on Disney +, after all, Baby Yoda also found its way into the title. We will keep you up to date.
