Since the start of the current Fortnite season, we've been anticipating new content for My Hero Academia due to the presence of an axe-wielding All Might. Deku then appears at the end of the Chapter 4 gameplay preview, using his One For All powers to bring down a building onto a group of opponents.
This led players to expect the collaboration to be similar to the Dragon Ball collaboration, but instead of featuring Goku as a playable character, Deku would be the protagonist. On Twitter, this content was confirmed as Fortnite x My Hero Academia. According to the official Twitter confirmation, the new game content will arrive on December 16, 2022.
Fear not…

With all this, Epic Games unfortunately hasn't released the rest of the details or what will happen in My Hero Academia's content, but according to an insider's report, there will be more than just the arrival of Deku and All Might. You can likely expect more information before the event begins next week. This will give us a great taste of what My Hero Academia will be like in-game.
Game developer Epic is facing a class action lawsuit in Canada for allegedly addicting fans to the video game. Three parents have sued the game's publisher and developer for allegedly causing their children to become addicted to it, similar to drug addiction. Epic denied the allegations in the lawsuit, citing Fortnite's "industry-leading parental controls," which allow parents to track their children's playtime and set limits.
