Fortnitehas had many recent events to bring players back to the game and entertain them during these hard times, such as theTravis Scott concert inFortnite. Now according to a leaked icon for the upcoming season,Fortnitewill have a crossover event with the king of Krabby Patties, SpongeBob Squarepants himself for its Season 3 update.
A Twitter account by the name of “ShiinaBR” has leaked a high definition image for the possible icon of Season 3, claiming that the accidentalupdate forFortnitewas uploaded to the PlayStation Store early. The picture prominently features the iconic battle bus over a beautiful ocean landscape, and to the right of the bus, there is the island with three palm trees that many fans of Spongebob can recognize from the show’s opening montage.
ShinnaBR also made another tweet stating that Season 3 will reintroduce theHeroes VS Villains themeonce again. Shinna BR also includes a picture of “The International Justice League of Super Acquaintances,” and “Every Villain is Lemons (EVIL)” who originally appeared in the episode titled “Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy V,” possibly hinting at how the team composition would look. It isn’t mentioned how this update would affect the gameplay mechanics, but it is believed that the map will have a considerable implementation of functions surrounding the use of water.
With Nickelodeon recently coming out with aSpongeBobcooking mobile game, it would make sense that it would try to make a partnership withFortniteto attract younger audiences. Sadly, the Season 3 update was pushed back another week from June 4th to June 11th, so players won’t know until then if this leak is credible. Luckily, that still isn’t too far away and if theSpongebobcrossover doesn’t happen,Fortnitefans can still be excited to cause mayhem all across the sea.
Fortniteis free-to-play on Mobile, PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
