Epic Games added their version of Wick to the game for the first time in Season 3 as Battle Pass exclusive content and there’s a chance that a new selection of challenges – associated with the character – could be headed to the battle royale game. 

This opens up the potential opportunity of fans being able to jump into Fortnite Battle Royale and take up bounty style missions to celebrate the arrival of the new John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum movie, which is set to premiere on May 17.

The leaked information has come from two of the most prolific Fortnite Battle Royale leakers, FortTory and Lucas7Yoshi, who have correctly discovered the upcoming arrival of new content on numerous occasions. 

The two dataminers have shared details about the possible upcoming challenge list on Twitter, including the name of the tasks – which will apparently be called ‘Wick’s Bounty” and they have speculated that a brand new limited time mode – shaped around the character – will be added as well.

FortTory revealed the following challenges, which may be available in the near future for players to enjoy and could require players to not only deal damage to opponents with specific weapons, but also collect gold coins as well. 

The leaked challenge list can be found below, but it’s worth noting that it’s still yet to be confirmed: 

    • Win a match of Wick’s Bounty (1)
    • Play matches of Wick’s Bounty (7)
    • Collect Gold Coins (150)
    • Collect Gold Coins in a single match (25)
    • Deal damage with the Combat Shotgun (500)
    • Deal damage with the Tactical Assault Rifle (500)

Eagled eyed Fortnite fans have also spotted what looks like John Wick’s house has been added to Fortnite Battle Royale, too, which could be another indication regarding another potential crossover in Season 9. 

However, nothing has been announced by Epic Games as of yet. Until then, best to take things with a pinch of salt, even if they are interesting.
