There are rumours that Giannis Antetokounmpo is coming to Fortnite, but are they true? With the recent launch of Fortnite’s Chapter 4 Season 1 coming to our screens on December 4th, we have been gladly exposed to incredible graphics, new maps, lots of new weapons and loot options but also, even better skins. Here's everything we know about whether Giannis Antetokounmpo is coming to Fortnite Chapter 4.

  • Here's how to get the Doom Slayer skin in Fortnite Chapter 4.

Fortnite Chapter 4: Giannis Antetokounmpo

As we have seen, Battle Pass holders can gain access to Doom Slayer, Geralt of Rivia, Massai and so many more. Recently revealed by Fortnite leaker, ShiinaBR, gamers will soon be able to access professional basketball player, Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Epic Games' collaboration with one of the best basketball players is just another great partnership that will soon enter the Fortnite world. Previously partnering with the NBA, Epic Games clearly enjoys merging the sports world into gaming.

Fortnite Chapter 4: What Else Is Coming?

But that is not the only announcement Epic Games has disclosed to launch in December. Announced on social media, we will be seeing a trio of crossover updates happening. We will be seeing the likes of a MrBeast skin, the most subscribed YouTuber on the video-sharing platform, and My Hero Academia gang joining Battle Royale. We will also be seeing the likes of Deku and a few special loot options to accompany the new skins that will come with these announcements.

Teased in the Chapter 4 Season 1 trailer, we see Deku charging up for a special move, which looks similar to the Kamehameha ability, which raved reviews across the Fortnite community.

Like Epic Games has done with many famous celebrities such as Ryan Reynolds, MrBeast was spotted in the finale event Fracture being pulled by a tentacle through space. Many Fortnite fans questions whether an actual MrBeast skin will become available.

We are yet to know what these new crossovers are coming with, which skins will be available, and which special weapons and moves will be accessible. We also don't know whether they are included in the Battle Pass or will be able to purchase via the Item Store.

The new launch of these crossovers is likely to be launched in December, but Epic Games is yet to confirm anything officially. We will update this article if anything changes.
