Although, there is no confirmation on any of the collabs featured in the survey,. However, what could be the reason for sending out a variety of names to players, if not a potential collaboration? Given the history, it might be possible Fortnite will go for the top picks for their upcoming crossover.

While this isn’t a confirmation of any upcoming collabs, this could be a hint at collabs to come in the future if Epic Games sees enough interest in specific characters/brands,” says iFireMonkey, the user who brought the information to light.

Users were excited to see the list. A user said,

Joining Hands with these Properties Could Open Up New Possibilities for Creators

If the list is actually Pandora’s box of upcoming collaborations, then it’s an amazing treat for anime fans. There has always been tough competition between Fortnite and Roblox in terms of active users and collaborations. As far as activity is concerned, Roblox sees more monthly active users than Fortnite. Someone even created a Call of Duty clone in the game.

However, Fortnite gets a lot of attention from viewers when a celebrity steps up on the platform. Travis Scott’s concert in 2020 garnered over 45 million views, while Ariana Grande’s in the year that followed raked in 27 million. It is uncertain if there will be a concert, but the list suggests names of celebrities.

Whatever the purpose this list serves, fans can speculate that something big is about to enter the popular online video game. For now, they can play Chapter 5 Season 2 which will give them a punch of Greek mythology.

Do you think the list has to do with future collaborations in the game? Let us know in the comments.
