Fortnite and Marvel's best and brightest characters are teaming up in a new comic series to take on a mysterious, multiversal threat!
Video game franchise Fortnite and Marvel Comics are teaming up for a new series featuring the likes of Spider-Man, Wolverine and Iron Man fighting for the fate of the multiverse alongside the video game series' heroes. As the second comics crossover for the franchises, and the first full series, Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War is set to be a major moment for both universes.
In a statement released Friday, Feb. 25, Marvel announced that a brand new five-part series, Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War, by Marvel's Christos Gage, Epic Games' Donald Mustard, and Sergio Davíla, will be debuting in June of this year. Taking place in the Marvel Universe, heroes from both sides are tasked with tracking down a Zero Shard, a piece of the reality-bending force in Fortnite's world, while trying to stave of Fortnite antagonists the Imagined Order.
A notable facet of the DC comics crossovers, Batman/Fortnite: Zero Point Reilly Brown and Gage, and Batman/Fortnite: Foundation, by Donald Mustard, Gage and DC's Scott Snyder, was the worldbuilding they did for the Fortnite franchise. It establishes how central functions of the"Battle Royale" mode affect characters, making Batman experience reality-bouncing and memory wipes that give context and depth to one of the most played video games ever.
With Marvel and Fortnite teaming up again, one thing is assured: Both companies are set to make a lot of money. Unlike their Thor digital one-shot, this series is hitting store shelves, and the two names lined up next to one another are sure to sell. More importantly for fans, though, it's another chance for fans to explore the lore of a beloved franchise.
