Fortnite
This morning we saw the official announcement of the crossover between Fortnite and Naruto. Between a trailer and a series of more detailed information on skins and aesthetic objects, fans of the Epic Games title were able to spend a morning analyzing the next news coming in the title. In addition to this, however, some dataminers are already releasing some images relating to the end of Chapter 2.Among the most active dataminers there is the usual ShiinaBR which, as with every big update coming to Fortnite, releases on his Twitter account a whole series of discoveries that he manages to make in the game files. One of the most interesting news is a screenshot that marks the end of Chapter 2 of Epic Games' battle royale. This means that we are getting closer and closer to the beginning of Chapter 3.
For the moment it is very difficult to understand what the main theme of the next chapter of Fortnite will be, but we are sure that over the next few days the same dataminers they will be able to find in the game files.

Fans are ready to sum up Chapter 2, therefore, with many players who have never been able to fully enjoy the various contents proposed . The Fortnite fanbase, in fact, split in two very often with each new season that was proposed and who knows if Chapter 3 will be able to convince everyone from the first moments.

Here Are All Fortnite’s ‘Naruto: Shippuden’ Crossover Skins, Live Now
Naruto
EpicIt’s been rumored for months, but as of this morning, it’s finally here. Fortnite is doing a massive crossover with Naruto: Shippûden, one of the most beloved animes of all time. The announcement of the crossover was one of Fortnite’s most-liked tweets in history, and this is far, far more than just a new skin of Naruto himself. We have Naruto Uzumaki, Kakashi Hatake, Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno, along with additional cosmetics.
In total, there are four Naruto anime skins in this crossover, rendered as close as they can be to their original animated style, rather than being 3D-ified for Fortnite like we sometimes see. Fortnite has done this a few times now (Rick and Morty) but these look especially good.
Here are the skins, where each of them have at least two styles:

EpicThere is also a Naruto Creative Hub you can visit based on the show, that is quite elaborate. I don’t think we’ve seen a crossover quite this large drop all at once since we had an entire Marvel-based season a while back. Most fans were expecting 1-2 Naruto skins at max, not four with different style variants and additional cosmetics. So this is above and beyond.
Now that Fortnite has opened the door to anime crossovers, the request are going to come pouring in. One Piece, Dragonball Z, Demon Slayer (which has a new season coming soon). It seems like Call of Duty is about to do an Attack on Titan crossover, so that may preclude that series from coming to Epic. I’m half surprised they didn’t do Cowboy Bebop, now that the Netflix show is here.
I expect this to be a huge crossover for them, given the amount of Naruto fans out there. This will no doubt re-run a few times, but pick your bundles up now if you want to be some of the first people with the skins.
Fortnite continues to be a master of IP collection like no one else in the business. At this point it’s hard to be surprised anymore, but this is an especially big get that has been cool to see realized.
