Fortnite Wreck-It Ralph Crossover Coming Soon

In 2012, Disney released an animated film called Wreck-It Ralph. It focused on the life of the antagonist from the 1982 arcade game, Fix-It Felix, Jr. Now there’s a sequel coming out, aptly named Wreck-It Ralph 2. It launches this week, in fact. Eagle eyed Fortnite players have actually found Wreck-It Ralph inside Fortnite. Guess where he appears? On the enormous outdoor cinema screen at Risky Reels, of course.

Reddit user /u/MozzzyyTwitch landed in a game and was looting around Risky Reels when he emerged from one of the buildings, just in time to see Wreck-It Ralph appear on the screen, wave, then walk off again. “Wait what the f*ck?!” he said to his teammate. “Yo, look at the screen! What the f*ck?! Wreck-It Ralph j-” he finished before the clip cut out.

It’s not the first time we’ve seen a film tie-in with Fortnite. Back in May, Epic Games partnered with Marvel to introduce an Avengers: Infinity War crossover mode where players could become Thanos. The Infinity Gauntlet would crash land on the Fortnite map and whoever reached it first would turn into the Mad Titan and inherit all of his infamous powers.

Could we see a Wreck-It Ralph limited time mode soon? It’s looking likely. Either a new mode or themed skins, but we doubt it’s the latter as Epic didn’t release themed skins with their Marvel partnership. It makes sense that it’s appeared this week though as the film launched in US movie theaters yesterday, November 21.

In other Fortnite news, the Mounted Turret has been the recipient of some minor nerfs as players worldwide have complained about how powerful it is. In the upcoming v6.31 patch, Epic has confirmed they’ll be altering it further, along with giving the Pump Shotgun a major buff to eliminate the infamous nine-damage shots.
