Leaks behind the next collaboration on Fortnite hint Avatar: The Last Airbender coming to the battle royale as part of the next season update of the game. This centers on a massive partnership between Epic Games and Nickelodeon, the media company best known for owning the rights to the famed franchise, also recently collaborating with Netflix for the live-action adaptation.
This massive speculation ignites what to expect on the next season's drop, with Epic Games going big on what it has to bring for the platform.

What to Expect from Fortnite's New Collaboration with Avatar
It was revealed by iFireMonkey that there would be a mid-season event pass for this where gamers have to complete challenges and collect all of the six books (about the Avatar story) to get an Appa Glider. The only character revealed to be joining as skin is none other than the Avatar himself, Aang, with a Fortnite Style design, and another AANG LEGO Style.
Epic and Nickelodeon previously collaborated on the recent Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover on Fortnite in the past weeks.
Fortnite's Collabs and the Avatar Franchise
There is no doubt that Fortnite is massive on collaborations, and the game has proved this to be true in past releases for the world to enjoy, centering on the massive partners and content it delivered. One of the largest crossovers of Fortnite is with Marvel, featuring the famed heroes from the comics and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, dedicating an entire Season to this experience.
There are also other collaborations including DC Comics, Dragon Ball, Naruto, Rick and Morty, Family Guy, and more.
While not an official crossover, Animal Crossing: New Horizons on the Nintendo Switch also brought Avatar: The Last Airbender to the simulation island, allowing residents to experience the four elements in-game.
Nickelodeon's famed animated cartoon franchise is best known for its massive fanbase and popularity in the world, more so now because of the recent Netflix series that adapted it into a successful live-action.
However, Avatar fans may continue the experience in the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 release, with leakers pointing out this new collaboration coming to the battle royale shortly.
