One of the most loved features that Fortnite brings to its metaverse community is its collaboration. With each partnership, they are broadening their player base. And subsequently improving the quality of content that is expected from the battle royale game. Among these collaborations, the most popular ones come from movies and animes. The Dragon Ball Z fan wave created by the collaboration is a prime example of this.
Now, the game is back again with an insane collab. This time, it would be Creed who is supposedly joining the Battle Royale Ring.
