In the early seasons of Fortnite , the game would give not-so-subtle nods to licensed characters by creating skins with similar appearances and names that indirectly point to the character. For example, in season 3 there was a skin in the battle pass called “The Reaper” that was obviously supposed to be John Wi
One can’t imagine there’s a whole lot of overlap between fans of Fortnite and fans of the NFL, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any. And it’s hardly the most striking crossover Fortnite has taken on. The game makes a lot of money off its crossovers and cross-promotions, and it shows no sign of slowing down.
