The enthusiasts of Fortnite’s multiplayer universe have lately been absorbed with an imaginative collaboration concept between the battle royale game and the legendary RPG, Final Fantasy VII. With no official word on this from the Epic Games camp, fans have been left to their own devices when pondering over this potential crossover.

Summary

  • While some users, like ‘Nxoxoxnxe’, express excitement and an instant willingness to purchase Final Fantasy featured items, others compare the potential pricing to that of Apex Legends.
  • Users wonder whether the character adaptation in Fortnite would follow a certain styling, à la Disney’s Kingdom Hearts or if they’d witness an entirely different representation.
  • Fans, in several instances express a strong desire for the collaboration, while some question the choice of Final Fantasy VII specifically.

Player Reactions

A palpable wave of anticipation greets the concept of this dream crossover. ‘DahkX’ offers a succinct ‘Need’ while ‘Nxoxoxnxe’ states they would ‘buy one winged angel immediately’, indicating unconditional support for the concept.

The Character Conundrum

A key concern among some fans, as highlighted by ‘OkamiRoxas’, is the character adaptation. Will Tifa Lockhart, a popular character from Final Fantasy VII, undergo a Disneyesque transformation, or will she be presented in a different style altogether?

Cost Considerations

While some players simply ‘Need’ to see this collaboration materialize, others are a bit more pragmatic. Will this be yet another expensive add-on akin to Apex Legends’ $295 package? It’s an aspect to consider, as highlighted by ‘MoConnors’.

As fascinating as the concept of a Fortnite x Final Fantasy VII collaboration is, it is crucial to understand that it is, after all, an idea conceived by the fans, and not an official announcement. However, seeing the intense anticipation and speculative discussion it has been able to generate, one cannot help but wonder if the developers might consider it worthy of exploring.
