Epic Games Teases Fans of Fortnite: Chapter 2 References
During Epic Games' current Fortnite season, fans are finding red balloons floating around in street gutters and giggling horribly when you shoot them, like Pennywise's haunted laughs. It: Chapter 2 is in theaters tomorrow and this announcement is likely the first piece of content offered by the Fortnite and It crossover. Fans recently got a glimpse of the Borderlands series during Fortnite X Mayhem, which included a huge overhaul of Fortnite cell shading in Pandora.
Epic Games has held several crossover events with Fortnite. It's one of the ways they've stayed relevant and the smart use of their money. Previous events have included franchises such as Stranger Things, the Avengers, John Wick, and even sports franchises such as the NBA and NFL. These spooky red balloons are likely the first stop in a new cross-over event that will terrorize younger players while encouraging older ones to see the latest Stephen King-inspired horror movie. We don't know whether to expect a drastic map change that will take players to Pennywise's sewer lair or whether we have to jump into a mech to defeat a giant demonic clown that will haunt our screens and our dreams. We hope to see Pennywise the clown skin as Halloween approaches and the game doesn't have enough spooky skins.
With this latest red balloon crossover event, we're interested to see what Epic Games has planned for this unstoppable Battle Royale battle. In case you were wondering, we think Fortnite is a near-perfect storm that constantly evolves with each season while maintaining great gameplay.
