Epic Games has a long history of crossovers, especially with musical artists. In recent seasons, it has coordinated collaborations betweenFortniteand Eminem, Metallica, Ice Spice, Billie Eilish, and more. While all of these performers have been featured at one point or another, the size and scope of collaborations can vary wildly. Some are limited to an emote, while others involve an entire Festival Pass with new locations on the map. Either way, many gamers have been waiting to see which artist will come toFortnitenext, and it seems as if they now have their answer.
In a recent post on Twitter, Epic Games shared footage of T-Pain collaborating with thenewFortnitecharacter Big Dill. After drinking too much pickle juice, the famous rapper gets up to use the restroom, giving Dill the opportunity to swipe all the music they’d worked on. This act sparks a fictional rap beef, in which T-Pain claims that his own beats were used in diss tracks created by Big Dill. It’s a very unexpected and creative way to announce a crossover, and it’s likely fans will see more of this feud throughout the season.
T-Pain Is Coming to Fortnite
Big Dill will be included in the battle pass forChapter 6 Season 2 ofFortnite, which will give players the opportunity to claim seven skins in total. While there are numerous original concepts within the pass, many fans are excited to see Sub-Zero fromMortal Kombatcome to the island. It has also been rumored that Epic Games will release cosmetics for Scorpion in the near future.
Along with the debut of Big Dill and Sub-Zero, many fans are excited to seeMidas return toFortnite. While he’s typically seen sporting short hair and fancy clothing, this version of the iconic character is a bit scruffy. Wearing his hair long and covered in casual street wear, fans are getting their first look at a grittier version of Midas, who is primed to play a big part in the heist-themed season. Some fans have humorously noted that a person who can turn items to gold with a single touch shouldn’t need to resort to crime, but that’s also part of the fun ofFortnite. With a new season just around the corner, many gamers are excited about the future of the battle royale.
