‘The Walking Dead’ Comes to Fortnite

by Rob Caprilozzi

The Walkers have arrived in Fortnite.

Gamers will be elated to know that you can now create islands with assets and content from The Walking Dead Universe using Unreal Editor for Fortnite and Fortnite Creative.

The preview below gives a glimpse of the action gamers can expect.

Start a new project using one of the new “The Walking Dead Universe” templates to access unique Walking Dead Universe-themed weapons, Prefabs, Galleries, and Walker NPCs.

Terrified of taking on the Walkers alone? Fear not: help is on the way! Starting in v34.30 on April 8, you’ll have back-up as the iconic character Negan becomes available to use as an NPC. When TWDU islands are live, players will have a chance to get the full immersive experience since Negan arrives in the Fortnite Shop on April 4 as a fully playable character!

The spine-tingling Walking Dead Universe assets can be used to build role-playing survival RPGs, prison escape roguelikes, chaotic free-for-all shoot ‘em ups, and much more — providing creative opportunities that range from hair-raising horror to fast and furious action.

You’ll be able to publish your The Walking Dead Universe islands starting May 16 via the Creator Portal.
