Summary
Details of theFortniteChapter 5 Season 1 battle pass have seemingly leaked ahead of an official reveal, revealing two new crossover characters that are set to join the popular battle royale game.Fortnitehas seen a boom in popularitythanks to the currentFortniteOG chapter, which sees players returning to the very first map of the game.
The OG chapter is set to end on December 2, and by all accounts,Fortnitemight be preparing to remove the original islandwhen the next chapter launches. As the clock counts down to the next season, players may have had a glimpse of what to expect from the Chapter 5 Season 1 battle pass.
PopularFortnitestreamer Ali-A has posted a screenshot to Twitter showing the possible banner image Epic Games will be using for Chapter 5 Season 1. The season is reportedly titled Underground and will feature Solid Snake from theMetal Gearseries, as well asFamily Guy’s loveable father, Peter Griffin, as part of the game’s battle pass.
Fortniteis no stranger to crossovers from multiple forms of entertainment, with Lara Croft, Kratos, and various Marvel superheroes having joined the battle royale in previous years. Peter Griffin won’t be the first iconic cartoon character to enter the fight, as last year sawRick and Morty open a portal intoFortnitein celebration of the annual Halloween event.
It is worth noting that the picture posted by Ali-A has yet to be confirmed by Epic, so it should be treated as unconfirmed until an official post is made. That said,Fortnitehas had several high-profile leaks during the OG Chapter, including fans finding data that showedEminem will be heading toFortniteas the chapter draws to a close. The legendary rapper was later confirmed to be heading to the game as part of The Big Bang event, which is the final event forFortnite’s OG Season beginning on December 2, 2 PM ET.
Not much is known about the event, except thatEpic has said it is using the Big Bang event as an opportunity to redefineFortnite’s future. Many theorize that the launch of Chapter 5 could be the point when the Lego xFortnitecrossover makes its appearance. Whatever the case, if the leaks about Peter Griffin and Solid Snake’s inclusion are accurate, then players will have a lot to look forward to asFortniteenters its seventh year.
