The long-awaited Godzilla skin is set to make its debut in Fortnite on January 17, but the excitement doesn't stop there. A treasure trove of information about the Fortnite and Monsterverse collaboration has leaked online, stirring up the community with anticipation. Epic Games has already rolled out an update containing the content that will go live on January 17, and dataminers have been quick to unearth the details. Alongside the standard Godzilla skin available through the battle pass, players will have the opportunity to acquire images of Mechagodzilla and Kong as part of a set in the store. This set will also feature unique jet packs and pickaxes tailored to both skins, enhancing the player's customization options.
Adding to the thrill, Fortnite is set to launch a new boss event on the same day. One lucky player on the map will transform into an oversized Godzilla, wielding its iconic atomic breath ability. The challenge for other players will be to band together to take down this giant. The player who inflicts the most damage on Godzilla throughout the battle will be rewarded with a medallion that grants a unique ability, adding a competitive edge to the event.
The Mechagodzilla and Kong set will be available in the Fortnite store at the usual time, with the following pricing:
- Kong: 1500 V-bucks
- Mecha Godzilla: 1,800 V-bucks
- Two pickaxes for 800 V-bucks each
- One Emote for 400 V-bucks
- Two Wraps for 500 V-bucks each
- Complete Set: 2800 V-bucks
Fortnite is no stranger to high-profile collaborations, and it seems another exciting partnership is on the horizon. Rumors are swirling about a potential collaboration with the virtual singer Hatsune Miku. Social media exchanges between the Hatsune Miku account and the Fortnite Festival account have sparked speculation. The Hatsune Miku account mentioned a missing backpack, and the Fortnite Festival account responded by confirming they had it. This has led to speculation that players might soon see a stylized pickaxe, a variant of the "Miku the Catgirl" skin, alongside the basic Vocaloid skin, and perhaps even a virtual Hatsune Miku concert within the game.
