At this point, learning that Fortnite is adding another IP to its massive collection isn’t exactly ground-shaking news. That said, the latest arrival unveiled by the battle royale/UGC platform has apparently gotten a lot of positive response from fans: Five Nights at Freddy’s.
The video announcement confirms that character skins from the horror game series will be arriving as part of the shooter’s Fortnitemares Halloween event starting on Thursday, October 1st. Beyond that reveal and date, there isn’t a whole lot of other information to glean, though a recent <a href="https://comicvibe.com/white-sky-6-preview-violets-dad-quest-gets-complicated/” title=”White Sky #6 Preview: Violet's Dad Quest Gets Complicated”>preview image highlights more potential reveals likely to come over the next couple of days.
Even so, judging by the number of likes and views on both the announcement tweet and the YouTube video, there are a lot of folks who are extremely excited to see FNAF get added to Fortnite’s frappe, with the YouTube upload already cresting 1.8M views and datamining pointing out that the tweet is the game’s most-liked post ever. So even if you’re well and truly unplugged from this shooter’s ecosystem, it can still very clearly capture some lightning in a bottle.
