For several years now, crossovers and collaborations of all kinds in Fortnite have been commonplace, and we are no longer really surprised to see a Darth Vader flying on a magic cloud in pursuit of Lara Croft and Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead. This time, it’s once again the Netflix series Stranger Things’ turn to be in the spotlight and to be talked about again if we are to believe one of the most well-known Fortnite leakers, HYPEX. We take stock with you.
Stranger Things soon back in Fortnite?
Remember, a few years ago, in 2019 to be precise, Epic Games Battle Royale players were able to get their hands on some skins straight from the Stranger Things series with Chef Hopper and the Demogorgon . However, since then, nothing more concerning the series, despite the last season to date which has caused a sensation with the fans.
However, it seems that things will change soon, with a resounding return (we hope) of the series in Fortnite. In effect, According to leaker and dataminer HYPEX on Twitter, a clue seems to put players on the path to Stranger Things thanks to a data discovery in the latest Battle Royale update.
Fortnite version 22.1 would have effectively highlighted a rather intriguing element of the decor with a “grandfather clock” (grandfather clock), fatally reminiscent of the famous clock present in the Netflix series. Are we finally going to have the right to the arrival of Vecna in the coming days? Such an arrival would not be really surprising knowing that we will soon begin the Halloween festivities, but for the moment, we will have to take our troubles patiently while waiting for any formalization from Epic Games.
Fortnite is getting ready for Halloween
Like every year now, Fortnite is putting on Halloween colors and offering a special event through the Fortnitemares. For this 2022 edition, the festivities will begin on October 18, and everything should normally last two weeks.
For the occasion, we were treated to a first teaser showing a wolf statue, dodging the usual zombies and ghosts for this year, at least at first sight. We will most certainly have more teasers in the days to come, with we hope, the formalization of the return of Stranger Things with the arrival of Vecna ! As we say so well, patience is a virtue!
