Boba Fett Is Coming To Fortnite Next Month

Fortnite will be home to Boba Fett, the famed bounty hunter. 

These are the latest news from official Fortnite Twitter accountThe announcement was made by, last week as part Disney Plus Day. Boba Fett is a Christmas present that will likely be a surprise for many who love the holiday. It will appear to be available as a skin to purchase in Fortnite’s Item Shop on December 24. 

It’s excellent timing, too, because Disney’s upcoming Disney Plus show about the bounty hunter, The Book of Boba Fett, launches five days later on December 29. 

The Tweet shows Boba Fett sitting on the throne beside Fennec Shand. This is Ming-Na Wen’s character in The Mandalorian. It’s unclear if Fennec Shand will be joining the Fortnite roster, and while it would be cool, the actual words that accompany the image in the tweet suggest that just Boba Fett is joining the game. 

Only time will tell for now – you only have to wait about six more weeks to find out. You can also see the trailer for The Book of Boba Fett, and read more about Dark Phoenix (X-Men) being added to Fortnite. You can read about the arrival of something from Naruto shippuden to Fortnite shortly after. Then, check out Game Informer’s list of all the Marvel and DC superheroes and supervillains in Fortnite.
