SSBU Fortnite DLC fighter crossover rumoured for December announcement

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate fans might be wondering what the next crossover or collaboration will bring to the game. We saw Minecraft's Steve enter the fight In October, and now, rumours are pointing towards a Fortnite DLC fighter possibly coming to SSBU. Here's what we know so far.

SSBU Fortnite DLC fighter rumours

As always, remember to take rumours such as this one with a grain of salt until such time as Epic Games or Nintendo announces the SSBU Fortnite DLC fighter.

With the disclaimer out of the way, The Game Awards host Geoff Keighley recently had a Zoom call with Fortnite creative director Donald Mustard, and several select fans. 

On 28th October, known Fortnite leaker and dataminer FireMonkey explained how "a few hints had been revealed about the future of Fortnite" during the Zoom call.

According to FireMonkey, the next major reveal will take place during The Game Awards on 10th December. 

FireMonkey explains his source is credible but would like to remain anonymous. Check out the image below showcasing rumoured highlights from the Zoom call, including a question about a possible SSBU Fortnite DLC/crossover.

Instead of saying no, Donald Mustard said he couldn't comment on a Fortnite x SSBU crossover. This is leading many to believe we could see a SSBU Fortnite DLC announcement on 10th December.

After all, both Fortnite and Smash Ultimate are no strangers to crossovers.

If SSBU gets a Fortnite fighter DLC of some kind, it could very well be voiced by Troy Baker, according to rumours. We will just have to wait and see what happens on 10th December.
