It seems like Epic Games‘ next major collaboration in the battle royale is based on Dragon Ball. At least that’s what Shiina mentioned in the tweet. Adding further, it was also written that this crossover was already making the rounds since last year.
They thought it was canceled until they found a key indication in the game-related files on Wednesday. “Today, Epic has added a logo to the files identical to a logo from Dragon Ball.”
FORTNITE X DRAGON BALL
Last year, I was made aware of a possible Dragon Ball collaboration in Fortnite, but until today, there hasn't been much news about it, so I thought it was canceled.

For those who don’t know much about Dragon Ball, somehow, it’s an iconic Japanese anime franchise. It features the journey of Son Goku, from his childhood to adulthood as he trains himself in martial arts. He spends most of his life away from civilization until he meets a teen girl, Bulma. She inspires him to join her in the quest of searching for the seven orbs, better known as the Dragon Balls.

If the latest news is any indication, then it might be the case that Epic will try to include more characters from the universe of Dragon Ball, because why not? The series consists of some of the best-known figures that fans are crazy about.
Speaking of who could be a part of future collaboration in Fortnite from Dragon Ball, there is Vegeta, Gohan, Krillin, Videl, and Bulma, of course. The latter is the first person to become a friend of Son Goku in the anime’s storyline. Thus, including her might be the best move from the developing team in the battle royale.
