Fallout invades Fortnite: Prepare for power armor and vault boys

Fortnite's latest crossover will bring Bethesda's post-apocalyptic RPG series, Fallout, to the popular battle royale.

Fortnite is no stranger to crossovers, and the latest one is sure to excite fans of Bethesda's Fallout series. The official Fortnite Twitter account teased the upcoming collaboration with an image of the iconic Brotherhood of Steel power armor helmet and Vault Boy-inspired emojis.

While details about the Fallout content are scarce, the possibilities are endless. Players can likely expect to see power armor outfits, Vault jumpsuits, and maybe even a Vault Boy skin. Post-nuclear map features and music from the series, like The Ink Spots' "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire," could also make an appearance.
 

The timing of the crossover is particularly interesting, given the recent success of the Fallout TV series on Amazon. The show has become one of the most-watched series on the platform and has reignited interest in the Fallout franchise. This could lead to some show-specific items in Fortnite, like a Ghoul skin based on Walton Goggins' character.

Fortnite players won't have to wait long to find out what the Fallout crossover has in store. According to IGN, the in-game news feed has confirmed that Chapter 5 Season 3 will launch "courtesy of the Brotherhood of Steel" on May 24th.

This collaboration is sure to be a hit with fans of both Fortnite and Fallout, offering a unique blend of post-apocalyptic survival and battle royale action. Prepare to gear up in power armor, explore Vault-inspired locations, and maybe even do a little jig to some classic Ink Spots tunes.
