Sonic; Mega Man; Spyro; Crash and more to join Fortnite

While Fortnite is well known for embracing pretty much any and all crossovers which it can get its hands on, the next Season appears to be its most ambitious in this regard. Following on from previous leaks, it appears as though Chapter 7 Season 4 of Fortnite will feature a plethora of ‘gaming legends’ including but not limited to Sonic the Hedgehog; Mega Man; Spyro and many more.

Releasing a brief trailer in anticipation of the upcoming update, Epic Games officially unveiled Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4: Override. Going live on the 20th of August, Season 4 will of course bring with it the expected suite of changes and additions, including new weapons, gadgets, map alterations and more.

Based on the trailer released however, Epic seems to be going all-in on the crossovers, with the map being entirely transformed with different regions – inspired by the included IPs.

Speaking of, while we will likely have to wait a bit for the entire line-up of characters, some of the franchises teased so far include:

• Sonic the Hedgehog
• Mega Man
• Spyro the Dragon
• Crash Bandicoot
• Persona
• Kingdom Hearts

Of course, this is far from the first time in which we’ve gotten ‘gaming legends’ in Fortnite, with past Chapters / Seasons bringing in characters from The Witcher; Pac-Man; Tomb Raider; Street Fighter; Mortal Kombat; Halo and more.

It will be interesting to see how Chapter 7 Season 4 is received when it officially arrives on the 20th of August.
