Fortnite enthusiasts are in for a thrilling addition as the iconic Japanese cinematic monster, Godzilla, is set to join the game's roster of guest characters in Chapter 6 Season 1. Scheduled for release on January 14, 2024, Version 33.20 will introduce Godzilla in his supercharged Evolved form from the recent film, Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire. Battle Pass owners will unlock two exclusive Godzilla skins starting January 17, 2024, sparking excitement and speculation about future Godzilla-themed skins.
Epic Games has a history of integrating giant opponents into Fortnite, from Galactus to Doctor Doom, and now players will face the fury of Godzilla. The anticipation for Godzilla's arrival has led to discussions and humorous takes on how Fortnite is becoming the ultimate crossover platform. The Monsterverse theme will dominate the new content, with Godzilla potentially appearing as an NPC boss, and hints of King Kong's involvement have also surfaced.
The launch of Version 33.20 on January 14 will likely involve server downtime starting at 4 AM PT, 7 AM ET, and 12 PM GMT. A trailer showcasing Godzilla's rampage through the Fortnite world has fueled excitement, and a brief glimpse of a King Kong decal suggests his possible inclusion as a boss in future updates.
As Fortnite continues to evolve, fans can look forward to more exciting crossovers, including potential additions from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and a much-anticipated collaboration with Devil May Cry. With Godzilla's impending debut, players are gearing up for another epic battle on the Island.
