The latest season of Fortnite Battle Royale, Myths & Mortals, drops players onto a map filled with new Mythics, weapons, items, and more. Given the highly fascinating season wrapped in Greek mythos, it may be easy to assume that the season by default is going to draw a lot of players in. But, an upcoming collaboration is going to shift things up a gear.
Like the battle pass (and Korra being in it) suggests, a collaboration with the superhit show Avatar: The Last Airbender is going to be something extraordinary. The trailer may have just given us a little glimpse of it, but there’s more to the season than you might expect.
The collab is going to last for a short while, so gather up some V-Bucks
You may have heard of limited-time game modes and events, but Fortnite has a tradition of introducing limited-time passes each season. These are different from your regular battle pass, and this season will introduce new unlockables for a show a lot of you may be familiar with.
Popular Fortnite leaker HYPEX has already shown off some details about the upcoming collab, and it seems like the event should arrive around the time Korra in the battle pass becomes unlockable. This is around April 2nd, so players can expect the first week of April as a time frame for the collaboration.
According to the leaks, Aang from Avatar: The Last Airbender will also make his way to the game and will bring alongside 4 brand new Mythic items. These are likely going to be similar to how ‘bending’ works in the show. In the past, events like Star Wars have done something similar, and in the case of the sci-fi phenomenon, lightsabers were added to the game.
Fortnite fans are seriously looking forward to this one
It’s no surprise that Avatar: The Last Airbender has been a beloved franchise throughout many people’s childhood, and watching the series arrive in Fortnite Battle Royale is nothing short of fantastic. Especially for the fans.
The online community is responding pretty well to this, and looking forward to all that the collab will bring in. Imagine gliding down onto the island with Appa as your glider, roaring adorably as you do so.
The game’s current season is all about the supernatural and myths from the past. Between the realms of Greek gods and new map changes, the addition of this collab somehow feels right at home and is something fans of both the game and the show have been waiting for.
