Three Disney Villains Coming In Next Fortnite Update

Fortnite is about to get quite villainous. According to a new leak, Fortnite is set to receive three new Disney villains relatively soon.

HypeX, who is known to post various Fortnite leaks, posted Tuesday that Captain Hook, Cruella de Vil, and Maleficent will be available when the next update drops.

The additions come as part of the crossover deal between Disney and Epic Games. As far as in what way they’ll be added to the game hasn’t been confirmed. One thing Disney has made known is that not every character added to Fortnite will be able to use guns, which would limit their ability to be used in the classic Fortnite Battle Royale.

“Not every outfit will be able to do everything,” Epic EVP Saxs Persson told The Verge last week. “A [Lego] minifig doesn’t hold a gun. Brands should be able to enforce the brand guidelines to the degree that they’re comfortable with that brand being associated with particular ratings.”

Disney and Fortnite’s collaboration will continue to grow aside from the additions of characters to the game. Epic Games and Disney are also working on new games as well as a full Disney universe within Fortnite.
