One of the most successful live-service games is Fortnite, a title that has been active for almost seven years and has become much more than just a game. Epic Games’ metaverse is trying to make players experience all kinds of variations of what this IP can do.
New rumored leaks have revealed the entire game’s roadmap for this year, revealing a wealth of upcoming content, such as Pirates of the Caribbean, additional Marvel and Disney properties, and even the themes of the upcoming seasons. A well-known insider shared this information on X.
Fortnite and Epic Games Have Big Plans to Make This Universe Even Bigger
Since Epic Games made Save the World in Fortnite Battle Royale, the gaming industry has changed forever. This game produced some of the greatest collaborations ever, involving almost every pop culture icon. Every year, the studio looks to make a new addition to the game universe to change it for the better, bringing the total gaming experience closer to a metaverse. The game will evolve into this.
Marvel, Nike, LEGO, DC, Lady Gaga, and almost every kind of character imaginable were already part of the Fortnite world. Epic Games also owns Unreal Engine, one of the world’s most used graphic engines. The company tries to make everything part of the same universe, so players can attempt to design their own game. This part of the IP has added a lot of new features recently.
New Leaks Confirm a Lot of Content for the Upcoming Months
According to the X account Shiina, there was a giant leak showing all the 2024 roadmap for Fortnite. The game will have collaborations with Pirates of the Caribbean, Billie Eilish, Metallica, more Marvel, and many other things.
My take: At first I didn't believe this roadmap was real, and even now I still have my doubts.

But after many hours of research yesterday and again over the last 2 hours, it seems impossible to confirm or debunk this for now.
We'll know once we see Season 3 or Metallica skins
The insider also shows that it will be some kind of post-apocalyptic season with new vehicles. It also showed that Fortnite OG Chapter 2 would happen sometime in the year.
Shiina clarified that they have some doubts about whether this will be real or not, but after checking the information, this could probably happen. The insider said that players will have to prove this once any of the collaborations get confirmation. In the past, Fortnite has consistently featured leaks, with most of them confirmed to be accurate. Epic Games has a lot of plans for this franchise to keep expanding.
Many users responded to this post by being skeptical about the veracity of the leaks; they even shared other leaks that aligned with these rumors but went over the top with some things that make no sense. Fortnite’s next season is a little distant, but an upcoming Star Wars event will be in May. According to rumors, this will change key gameplay features. This will be released on May 4, to celebrate the official day of this franchise.
