Another major property is headed to Fortnite.
Announced today, Naruto will arrive to the popular battle royale game on November 16. There’s no word on what characters from the popular series will be available in the shop aside from the titular character. This year, Fortnite has seen a slew of collaborations with franchises such as Street Fighter, Predator, and Resident Evil.
Debuting in 1999, the Naruto manga is the fourth best-selling manga of all time with 250 million copies sold worldwide. The anime series was the third most-watched animated kids’ series on Netflix in 2020. Naruto’s last video game appearance was the 2019 fighting game Jump Force, which was nominated for Best Fighting Game at The Game Awards and Game Critics Awards.
