The Punisher and Daredevil Might Be Coming to Fortnite
This isn’t the first timeFortnitehas collaborated with Marvel, as the two have a long history that has featured battle pass characters and full-season crossovers. Epic Games has crafted skins modeled after Marvel’s heroes from the comics, movies, television shows, and even video games. Since Disney invested over a billion dollars and became a stakeholder in the company, it’s likely their partnership will only grow over time.
