For quite some time, reports have hinted at Blizzard’s Overwatch being one of the next major collaborations to arrive in Fortnite. Yet, unlike many other crossovers, no in-game assets or definitive leaks have surfaced, leaving many to wonder about its true status despite months of persistent rumors. What’s truly happening behind the scenes?
ShiinaBR, a well-known Fortnite leaker, recently took to X (formerly Twitter) to share an update on the anticipated collaboration. According to ShiinaBR, the crossover is reportedly still in the works but has likely been pushed back due to a broader wave of project delays.
The leaker also mentioned knowing which specific skins are expected to be part of the collaboration. However, the exact method of their release remains uncertain. While there were supposedly previous plans to integrate a Tracer skin into an upcoming Battle Pass, this particular inclusion is now less of a certainty, suggesting a potential shift in strategy or timeline.
ShiinaBR concluded by stating, “I don’t believe this collab would be canceled because of leaks, but it rather seems to have been pushed back or was never intended for Battle Pass integration (or was *taken* for a Battle Pass collab, as it could play another role later in the season).”
In essence, it appears that fans will need to wait a little longer for official news and concrete details from Blizzard and Epic Games regarding this much-anticipated crossover event.
