Fortnite is game that has become majorly popular for crossovers and collaborations. The first name that comes to people’s minds is Marvel, when they think about Fortnite characters, a ton of them have been added to game and its storyline. Fortnite has also ventured into other universes for character crossovers too.
In one of the previous seasons, where bounty hunting was a part of the theme of the season, famous Bounty Hunters from the Sony Exclusives Universe were added to Fortnite’s line of characters, such as; Kratos, Aloy, Drake and more. They have also ventured into the Anime section have brought on characters from the Naruto TV series.
According to a recent leak it seems like Fortnite is having a crossover from another fan favourite Anime, Attack on Titan. A post on Reddit by user, u/Heavyduty35, consists of a theory that talks about a possible Fortnite crossover with AoT. He first talks about how many crossovers have had the menu screens altered when they have arrived, examples being Deadpool, when he invaded the Item Store and also ,when the loading screen changed when Luke Skywalker arrived.
He then talks about recent leak from a renowned Fortnite leaker, ShiinaBR, which was a post on Twitter, that consisted of an image of a black background with grey anime style lines painted on the right-top corner and the left-bottom corner. The caption read, ‘New shop background for encrypted skins with the codename “Rumble”‘. Check out the Twitter post below:

According to the redditor’s theory, the codename ‘Rumble’ could be traced back to the ‘Rumbling’ event on Aot. He also states that the background is very similar to the the opening credit scene of Aot. Due to this peculiar resemblance, he believes that the next crossover in Fortnite is for sure going to be with AoT.
Many players agree with the theory and many don’t, some feel that this background could also be from Person 5, Youngboy or even Moon Knight. Other reasons such as COD having a recent collaboration with AOT by releasing character bundles in the game, also leads the people to believe that a Fortntie crossover with AoT may not be a possibility. Players will just have to wait for an official announcement from Fortnite to know for sure, check out the Reddit post below:
