Just when you thought Fortnite might have run out of collaborations or crossovers, something leaks, proving that the live Battle Royale meets metaverse service is still nowhere near running out of IPs to present. After key art for the upcoming crossover with The Simpsons leaked online, the next crossover is reportedly another fan-favorite adult animated series, South Park.
As first shared on social media by Sam Leaks, a trusted Fortnite insider, the crew of Kenny, Stan, Kyle and Cartman and presumably Butters will be making their Fortnite debut sometime in the near future.
Of course, given how popular South Park is, it's highly unlikely that the core group of four will be the only characters introduced. Because let's be real, there's no way you're not including Randy in a Fortnite collaboration.
That said, maybe the biggest question is just how Cartman, Kyle, or whoever will work due to them being about 3 feet tall.
There are a few ways South Park could work in Fortnite
Should the South Park collaboration become real, then Epic Games will have some work on their hands in terms of making sure everything works from a gameplay standpoint, given the character's heights plus smaller hitboxes.
Already, one player has come up with a solution, and it's low-key genius — What if the boys are all standing on top of each other in a trench coat, and you just swap out the character you want most visible at the top?
It's probably the most logical way to go about it, but how about this – the skins in Fortnite are based on their anime versions. You still get all four characters, but you don't have to worry about any problems in the game.
Consider that Fortnite has had enough collaborations that the most interesting thing about a potential South Park crossover is not that South Park is coming, but rather how the characters will work.
