The Simpsons Fortnite in-game teasers
If you go in Fortnite Battle Royale and visit Creepy Camps, you will find a countdown clock ticking down to the event start time. It’s next to Bart’s Treehouse, which is completely cel-shaded, as is the area around it. You can jump up into the treehouse to find a TV.
Besides the treehouse and the countdown, you’ll also see Kang and Kodos flying in along with the battle bus at the start of a battle. They are in Fortnite art style, so it is possible that they will be available as gliders later.
That’s all that has been officially confirmed for the upcoming one Fortnite x The Simpsons live event. As more information is revealed I will be sure to add it here. There have been some Fortnite The Simpsons leak does reveal some of the Battle Pass characters and an early version of the new map.
