A leak indicates a new crossover at Fortnite.
Apparently it should be scary in Battle Royale – through a cooperation with Dead By Daylight.
Cary, North Carolina - Crossover content is the bread and butter of Fortnite's item shop at the moment.
Season 3 of the Battle Royale only started a few weeks ago and so far there has already been Star Wars and Naruto content available for purchase.
Things could get spooky next in Fortnite though.
As a leak shows, there will soon be a crossover with another game.
As reported by IPPEN.MEDIA ingame.de, it should be about nothing less than the horror hit Dead By Daylight.

Fortnite: Leak for crossover with Dead By Daylight – new outfit expected
Where is the leak coming from?
In the Fortnite community, especially on Twitter, there is often a lot of activity when it comes to news and leaks.
Several respected accounts regularly share battle royale updates, and one of the most famous of them is ShiinaBR.
As a partner of Epic Games and a verified Twitter account, ShiinaBR often has very reliable inside information about Fortnite to offer.
So now for a new possible crossover between Fortnite and the horror multiplayer game Dead By Daylight.
What is this crossover?
Dead By Daylight has been a staple of multiplayer games for years.
The horror hit has seen numerous crossovers of its own with well-known horror franchises since 2016, but this time it's set to serve as a crossover itself.
As ShiinaBR reports, he is said to have evidence from an anonymous source that Meg Thomas, one of the characters from Dead By Daylight, is coming to Fortnite as an outfit.

In exchange for Meg as an outfit, Fortnite should also have an appearance in Dead By Daylight.
According to ShiinaBR, the Loot Llama should come into the horror game as a pendant in return.
No other cosmetic items are known, but it could be that other items will be added in addition to the outfit.
Such crossover outfits are often available in the item shop as a bundle with other items, as are the current Naruto Rivals skins in Fortnite.

How reliable is the information?
In principle, the ShiinaBR leak, as with many other insider information, should be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism.
However, Shiina has a good reputation in the Fortnite community, and another account called iFireMonkey has made the same claims independent of ShiinaBR.
So the information about the crossover with Dead By Daylight seems to be leaking in several places.
Another leak doing the rounds right now says Luke Skywalker could be coming to Fortnite soon.
