Summary

  • Players will soon be able to get their hands on a new Godzilla-themed Mythic item in Fortnite.
  • The Godzilla Mythic will allow players to transform into the Kaiju himself, granting them his powers and his size.
  • King Kong is also expected to be coming to the game soon.

A new Fortnite leak reveals what players can expect out of the game's Godzilla-themed update, including an exciting new Mythic. This new Mythic item will grant players powerful abilities, likely changing the way fights and battles play out during matches. The Godzilla update comes as Fortnite also receives another highly-requested character, Hatsune Miku, with both new additions fitting into the game's Japanese-inspired battle pass and chapter cycle.

Fortnite has received countless updates since its release in 2017, with developer Epic Games seeing the game as more of a platform on which to build rather than a static title. This approach can be seen throughout the game's history, but rings especially true when looking at Fortnite's more recent updates. Not only has Fortnite received new weapons, events, crossovers, and collaborations over the past few years, but the game itself has changed in significant ways. Perhaps one of Fortnite's biggest changes lies with Ballistic, a new first-person game mode that flips the game on its head, placing two teams of five against each other in a tactical showdown evocative of Counter-Strike. Big changes are practically always around the corner, with Fortnite set to introduce its latest overhaul to its ever-changing weapon pool.

First revealed by prominent Fortnite leaker HYPEX, players will soon be able to get their hands on a new Godzilla-themed Mythic item. The Godzilla Mythic will allow players to transform into the Kaiju himself, granting them his powers and his size. Players will be able to acquire the new Mythic and turn into Godzilla, which will give them different abilities like a stomp, a beam, a roar, and more. The Godzilla Mythic joins a long line of others from past Fortnite seasons, all of which have granted players an incredible amount of power.

New Godzilla Fortnite Mythic Revealed

This new Mythic item arrives following weeks of teases and hints pointing toward a Godzilla-inspired event, with the character even being shown Fortnite's official Chapter 6 key art. It's also been speculated that King Kong would be a part of Fortnite's new Godzilla update, playing off the infamous rivalry between the two monsters. Last year saw the release of Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, which prompted a lot of speculation about a possible Fortnite collaboration, with at least one of these monsters finally making his way into the game.

As stated earlier, players are currently in the middle of Fortnite's Chapter 6 Season 1 update, which made several changes to the map, weapon pool, and storyline. Not only do players have access to a number of new guns, but they can also acquire new swords and elemental Oni masks, each of which grants them a specific power. New points of interest have also been added, with Fortnite's new Seaport City bridge rumored to play a part in the game's Godzilla update. In addition, players will be able to add two Godzilla skins to their Fortnite locker starting on January 17.
