A Fallout Crossover is Coming to Fortnite
The recent success of the Prime Video series “Fallout” has reignited fan fervour for the post-nuclear wasteland franchise. While Microsoft and Bethesda, the owners of the Fallout IP, haven’t capitalized fully with a new game announcement (the next Fallout title is still years away), another gaming giant is seizing the opportunity: Epic Games and its wildly popular battle royale, Fortnite. We can safely say that a Fallout crossover is coming to Fortnite.
The “Fallout” TV series garnered critical acclaim and strong audience viewership. This resurgence of interest translated into a surge in sales for the 2015 game, Fallout 4. Bethesda even released a current-gen console update for the title, demonstrating the enduring popularity of the franchise.
A Fallout Crossover is Coming to Fortnite
However, fans yearning for a brand new Fallout game might have to wait a while longer. Bethesda’s development resources are currently focused on completing The Elder Scrolls 6, another major franchise under their umbrella. This means a new Fallout title won’t be actively worked on until after The Elder Scrolls 6 is finished.
While Bethesda waits in the wings, Epic Games is ready to capitalize on the Fallout hype. Their official Fortnite Twitter account, known as “Fortnite X,” recently teased a collaboration with the post-apocalyptic franchise ahead of the upcoming Fortnite season, Chapter 5 Season 3, aptly titled “Wrecked.”

The exact details of the Fallout x Fortnite crossover remain under wraps, but Epic has subtly hinted at the direction it might take. The teaser image shared on Twitter features a recognizable symbol from the Fallout universe: the imposing power armour worn by the Brotherhood of Steel, a powerful faction in the games.
The possibilities for the Fallout x Fortnite crossover are numerous. We might see the introduction of iconic Fallout weaponry like mini-nukes or the signature Pip-Boy wrist computers. Perhaps players will even be able to take refuge in makeshift Fallout-inspired shelters scattered across the map, adding a whole new dimension to the term “vaulting” in Fortnite (currently used to describe the removal of items from the game).
This Fallout collaboration showcases Epic Games’ ability to stay ahead of the curve and capitalize on current trends. Their keen awareness of what excites gamers allows them to integrate popular themes and franchises into Fortnite, keeping the battle royale experience fresh and engaging.
The coming weeks will reveal the full extent of the Fallout x Fortnite collaboration. Whether it’s a cosmetic overhaul of the map, the introduction of new weapons and items, or even a narrative-driven limited-time mode, this crossover event is sure to generate excitement among gamers.
