Fortnite leaves no chance to cash in on some trending shows and movies through impressive collaborations. It seems like the formula has been captured convincingly by the players as well. The gaming world is currently waiting for the Big Bang Event, which is Eminem’s first live concert in the game. But what if we tell you an iconic Eminem performance has already happened in Fortnite? Well, credit to a dedicated fan, the Battle Royale fans got to revisit one of the most celebrated “cinematic masterpieces” and how!
The OG chapter of Fortnite is about to end. But the tactical shooter fever doesn’t seem to be ending anytime soon. Epic Games, through an exhilarating lineup of collaborations and big events planned, has made sure to not slide off the newfound limelight for Fortnite. While the players have been hyped with the Big Bang countdown, which is just days away from the showdown, a creative fan has already started the party with a creative Eminem spin-off. Remember the pop star’s silver screen phenomenon, 8 Mile? Here’s what the movie would look like in Fortnite.

The cinema industry shares a very dependent relationship with the gaming world. From The Last of Us, Super Mario Bros., and Five Nights at Freddy’s, there are never-ending examples of how significantly both industries work together. However, if there’s one game that has constantly brought both communities together through a series of top-tier collaborations, it has to be Fortnite.
In a similar episode, we have a recreation of an unforgettable scene from the 2002 Universal Pictures film 8 Mile. You might have a faded memory of what the movie was like, but you surely can recall the rap battle scene of B-Rabbit (Eminem) vs. Papa Doc (Anthony Mackie). Thanks to a creative Fortnite fanatic, the scene was recreated in the Battle Royale, but with a twist in the end!

It’s hard bidding farewell to the OG season of the game, but a future roadmap that includes Eminem, Lady Gaga, and Lego collaborations would certainly help the fans move on. If not somehow, such wholesome recreations would keep the hype around the Battle Royale hot and running forever. Let’s have a look at how the fans reacted to the recreation.
