Here's Our First Look at Dwayne Johnson and Bugs Bunny in Fortnite's Next Season
Epic Games has released key artwork for the next season of Fortnite, confirming the return of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and the inclusion of Bugs Bunny.
Showdown, which goes live later this week, features the highly-anticipated return of Johnson’s Fortnite hero The Foundation — something that followers of Fortnite lore have been awaiting for years, and Epic Games has been teasing for some time.
The next season will also see Looney Tunes characters join Fortnite, with the suggestion here that Bugs Bunny (and all the other skins seen in the image) will be included within the next battle royale battle pass. (Separately, leakers have suggested that Daffy Duck and Lola Bunny will land in the item shop for purchase separately.)
Fortnite is back fully leaning into its storyline, which is set to see The Foundation lead the game’s remaining heroes into battle against a similarly-returned Ice King. The battle pass character line-up also includes a new version of fellow Seven member The Order, and a new version of the ever-popular Chapter 2 character Jules.
With four returning favorites, the next battle pass holds the most familiar faces seen in a single pass ever — though this seems fitting for a season which seems set to return to Fortnite’s older story roots. What looks to be a cute ice troll Sidekick pet is also included.
Epic Games may hope that this big ticket line-up will calm some of the fans still seething over last week’s eye-opening changes to V-Bucks, Fortnite’s lucrative in-game currency. In short, V-Bucks will now cost more and be doled out more sparingly within battle passes, with Fortnite Crew subscribers also taking a hit to their membership’s value.
