Epic Games recently released the v21.20 update for Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 3. The update rolled out several changes to the island apart from teasing several items. Following the release of the recent update, data miners got hold of significant proof that teases a probable Fortnite x Dragon Ball Z collaboration event. Anime characters have already been released on the island with Naruto and his squad. Therefore, a collaboration with Dragon Ball Z seems to be very much on the cards. Recently, gamers have been trying to understand when the event will come to Fortnite. For more Fortnite collaboration updates, follow InsideSport.IN.
Fortnite has already featured several popular culture characters. However, Son Goku and his team are yet to be featured in the game. Since Fortnite lore features travel within several realities and the resurgence of several beast-like creatures, the addition of Dragon Ball Z elements will be quite interesting.

Hypex pointed out that a new Dragon Ball Z movie is scheduled for release on August 19 in the US and Canada. Therefore, Epic Games can release the collaboration during the first week of August or just before the movie releases.
Dragon Ball Z has some of the most memorable characters in the Anime Kingdom. Those who have followed the series will recall the valor of Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Gohan. Cell and Freiza are two evil characters who go neck to neck with the heroes. Therefore, Epic Games has a lot of options to develop the skins for the Fortnite x Dragon Ball Z collaboration.
Fans have high hopes from the Goku skin since Epic Games can release a selectable style version. The community will be elated to get the various Super Saiyan styles. Epic Games can also add the legendary Kamehameha attack in the form of an emote.
