Fortnite’s latest season has been live for less than a day, but already there’s confirmation that more than just Star Wars’ Mandalorian and Baby Yoda will showing up to do a turn in Epic’s cross-media marketing juggernaut (and battle royale game), starting with God of War’s Kratos.
The teases started over on the official PlayStation Twitter feed, which posted a short clip in which Fortnite’s in-game overseer Agent Jonesy discusses doing some research on the next character he’s bringing into the game – a mystery man who’s “literally vanquished multiple gods with his bare hands in a fit of uncontrollable rage”.
If that rather heavy handed clue wasn’t enough to tip you off to the character’s identity, it wasn’t long before Fortnite poster Hypex shared a number of images, one displaying the new Kratos skin in all its majestically bearded glory, and another of the skin being used in-game.
