Rumor: Aliens next franchise to invade Fortnite

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

So after The Predator joined the popular massively multiplater battle royale game Fortnite to hunt humans and do The Floss, it was only a matter of time before the Alien franchise got in on the fun. Now, Epic games hasn't officially announced Aliens' appearance in the game, but there have been some leaks of Alien/Fortnite art floating around, including from Twitter user @ShiinaBR:

This was also revealed after this transmission from the game's official Twitter account, which mentions a ship “running on tech that seems to be from 1986”, which seems to be an Aliens reference, among other clues:
