An everyday Fortnite dataminer has shared an e-mail from Epic Video games asking for opinions on quite a lot of characters and franchises.

Regardless of the distinction in genres, Fortnite appears to have change into Epic Video games’ personal Super Smash Bros. With each new season, the large query on everybody’s minds is which popular culture icon will likely be added to it subsequent.

Within the 4 years since Fortnite made its debut, we’ve seen Batman, Grasp Chief, LeBron James, and a complete lot extra make appearances within the battle royale. And with what number of crossovers there have already been, and the way insanely fashionable the sport nonetheless is, it’s nearly not possible to foretell who will present up subsequent.

However now now we have a greater thought of who Epic is contemplating including to Fortnite, due to a survey emailed to a choose variety of gamers. One such recipient, ShiinaBR, a distinguished Fortnite dataminer and leaker, has shared a few of its contents.

The survey asks for opinions on an inventory of assorted video games, motion pictures, and TV exhibits, in addition to particular characters, musicians, and influencers. Whereas it doesn’t say what the aim of the survey is, it’s protected to imagine that Epic is gauging curiosity on who it ought to add to Fortnite as an unlockable pores and skin.

A few of the names listed have already been included, similar to Kratos from God Of Conflict and Lara Croft from Tomb Raider. However there may be all kinds of particular characters and normal franchises which have but to be represented.

By way of gaming characters, maybe essentially the most attention-grabbing recommendations are the Nintendo characters. Examples embody Byleth from Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Captain Falcon from F-Zero, and Luigi from the Mario video games.

Whereas it is sensible for Epic to contemplate including Nintendo characters, it’s probably struggling to get approval from Nintendo itself. The corporate is thought for being very protecting of its characters and if Epic ever did handle to get permission Nintendo skins would probably be locked to the Nintendo Swap model of Fortnite.

Different particular picks embody Girl Dimitrescu from Resident Evil Village, in addition to anime characters like Goku from Dragon Ball Z and Naruto. The latter is already rumoured to be making an look in Season 8 alongside Ariana Grande.

The Witcher TV present can also be talked about, which appears an apparent one to incorporate, which might presumably imply the Henry Cavill model of Geralt.

There are many apparent picks however among the franchises included are outright weird. Characters from Star Trek or Grand Theft Auto exhibiting up is one factor, however the record mentions the likes of Caddyshack (a sports activities comedy movie from the 80s), The Wizard Of Oz (think about Dorothy flossing), and the sitcom How I Met Your Mom (as a result of why have Spider-Man or Cloud Strife when you possibly can have Ted bloody Mosby?).

There’s clearly no assure that any of the characters and franchises talked about will likely be included in later seasons however on the very least it highlights that Epic isn’t slowing down with the crossovers and is keen to attempt something so long as it might get permission.
