Fortnite Override is here, and it's all about video games. The island has been hacked. The Zero Point has been stolen. Nevertheless, all is well because a bunch of video game characters have appeared on the island. The Chapter 7 Season 4 Battle Pass only features one character from an existing video game, Sonic, but the item shop rotation looks promising.

Epic Games announced that cosmetics from dozens of franchises would soon be added as part of the Gaming Legends series, namely Kingdom Hearts, Pac-Man, Mega Man, Persona 5 Royal, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, 99 Nights in the Forest, Crash Bandicoot, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Spyro. While these are great additions, I think that there are key characters that are still missing, and putting them in Chapter 7 Season 4 would turn it from a good gaming season to an excellent gaming season.

In this article, I've listed some crucial video game characters that would look great as in-game cosmetics, but that would make sense in the world of Fortnite. This means that I didn't include some fan-favorite Nintendo characters like Link, Tom Nook, or Mario because I simply don't think in their nature to appear in a video game where they can hold AKs as they work to get that Victory Royale. The worst I can see them doing is face-kicking their opponents in Super Smash Bros., using animated laser guns in Mario Rabbids, or running a real estate monopoly on a deserted island.

Cosmetic ideas: Joel (skin), Ellie (skin), Ellie's guitar (back bling or pickaxe)

Ellie and Joel are one of the best duos in video game history, and they're zombie-killing machines — or fungus-infested-human-killing machines. Either way, they would certainly fit right into Fortnite. They would be great additions for Save the World, as players' main objective in this game mode is to protect their home........
