New leaks from Fortnite are hinting at another major Cartoon Network crossover planned to hit the game, with Ben 10 reportedly coming in the near future. The beloved battle royale from Epic Games has continued to expand its array of crossover content farther than ever before with a plethora of unexpected and exciting crossovers. Fortnite's recent crossovers have introduced multiple brand-new collaborations to the game, including The Office, South Park, and even virtual YouTuber Kizuna Ai. Now, a beloved Cartoon Network property looks to be one of the next big collabs.

Gang to Fortnite. Epic Games has even revealed that another beloved Cartoon Network property will be added to the game, with Ed from Ed, Edd, N Eddy receiving an in-game skin.

Fortnite May Be Adding Ben 10 Crossover Content
A recent post shared by prominent Fortnite leaker Adira is teasing the addition of Ben 10 skins to Fortnite later this year. The post does not give many details about the Ben 10 crossover beyond the planned release window for the skins, expected to launch during the summer. The post also specifically does not clarify which branch of the Ben 10 franchise will be featured in Fortnite, with multiple different versions of Ben from the series' many reboots and sequels. Specific skins were not mentioned within the post, though everything from Ben and his alien forms to supporting cast members like Gwen, Uncle Max, and Kevin could be added.
Ben 10's rumored addition to Fortnite could boast a variety of different opportunities for Fortnite to make the event feel special. Ben 10's multiple alien forms could be perfect for different weapons or mechanics, potentially granting powers connected to the various forms. Fortnite's major events often experiment with new types of weapons, ranging from Goku's Kamehameha and Deku's Smash to the ongoing South Park event's Stick of Truth. Many fans have pointed out that Ben's Omnitrix would be a perfect addition to the game as part of the event, likely granting temporary transformations similar to past weapons like the Infinity Gauntlet.
When Could Ben 10 Be Added to Fortnite?
A Ben 10 crossover will likely line up closely with the launch of one of Fortnite's next competitive seasons. Fortnite's current Chapter 7 Season 1 is scheduled to end on March 4, with Chapter 7: Season 2 set to run for a similar length of time with an endpoint of May 19. The release cycle will likely place Fortnite's Chapter 7: Season 4 update arriving sometime during the summer months, though the Ben 10 collaboration's vague "summer" release could also see it launch during Season 3. Fortnite has not officially confirmed any details about its summer updates or the rumored Ben 10 crossover.
Fortnite fans should have plenty to keep them busy throughout the coming months, with lots on the horizon before the summer. Recent leaks have dropped a major bombshell for one of the battle royale's next collaborations, suggesting that Fortnite will be teaming up with Overwatch within the next few months. Rumors have also suggested that another major video game crossover may be in the works, with early information suggesting that Epic Games may be working on a Minecraft event to come. Fortnite's expansive library of crossover content continues to grow with each passing update, still surprising fans with more new and exciting events.
