ORIGINAL ARTICLE:
Fortnite’s become the Smash Bros. of battle royales, but instead of iconic video game characters, it’s mashing up everything you’ve ever seen on a TV screen, including, apparently, your childhood fever dreams. According to Fortnite leaker and Twitter (now X) user FNBRintel (and shared by ShiinaBR), Adventure Time is finally making its long-awaited debut in Fortnite’s next update. So, if you’ve ever wanted to drop into battle as Finn, Jake, Princess Bubblegum, or Marceline the Vampire Queen, you’re about to live that surreal crossover life.

And it doesn’t stop there. Because Epic Games isn’t content with just turning their battle royale into a Cartoon Network fanfic, they’re also bringing vehicle cosmetics themed around Adventure Time to Rocket League. That’s right — the game where you can already slap an octane with a Batman logo is about to let you zip around with skins inspired by the Land of Ooo. Which, let’s be honest, feels like it should’ve happened ages ago.
Oh, and if you thought Epic Games was done with its Walking Dead crossovers, think again. Negan’s comic-accurate design is allegedly making his way to the island, complete with his trusty barbed-wire bat, Lucille. And here’s the wild part: Rumors suggest the Lucille pickaxe might not just be a harvesting tool but an actual in-game weapon.

We wonder if the reason Epic went with the comic style over the Jeffrey Dean Morgan version is due to some sort of legal rights, considering the other Walking Dead character skins mirror their television counterparts. If we’re lucky, he will get an edit style or a JDM skin soon enough, as that would be dope. This should have already happened, considering the spinoff with Negan and Maggie, but whatever. We will take it.
At this point, Epic Games hasn’t confirmed any of this yet, but we’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for more leaks — because that’s the only reliable way anyone learns about Fortnite’s next insane crossover these days.
