Fortnite players, assemble! Season 3 is glowing strong with some serious DC vibes. With the teaser out, the word of the hour is “S-Tier,” which seems like obvious confirmation that Superman may be descending onto the battle royale. You heard it here! The Man of Steel might very well suit up in Fortnite!
HYPEX, the infamous Fortnite leaker, has sent the community into a full frenzy with one tweet. The teaser image with the words “S-Tier” sparked much speculation, wherein some claim it´s a direct nod to Superman; others are positive it´s all about a One Punch Man crossover. Both would be bonkers.
Let’s get this clear: The wording in the teaser is “Super-Man,” and some players seem to be side-eyeing the ignorant spelling. Are we talking typo? Stylistic? Or are the folks over at Epic Games trotting us before an even bigger announcement drops? Reactions have ranged everywhere. User @minitanou said, literally, “Super-Man is crazy.” Then again, there’s @FrostwingGaming wondering if it’s actually a One Punch Man-reference teaser. Real chaos, that.
Now for the “S-Tier” talk: S-Tier, generally speaking, means just that—the top-tier, best of the best. So is Fortnite suggesting that Superman is going to be the best skin ever? Or is every single S-Tier collab featured on Season 3 battle pass? The likes of @Racager_ endorse the latter theory saying, “S tier because the battle pass collabs are S tier.” @CHEWIE_______ seemingly offered a little harsher take by jokingly saying the “S stands for Shit” on the basis of some questionable hero designs. Ouch.
And lurking in the corner are all the fan theories. One faction of players is certain that Robin from Teen Titans (@UnhingedFN) is the secret skin, while another is screaming for Saitama from One Punch Man (@canihavburgers1). All the while, there’s an ambient shout-out for Nightwing (@il0vemet4llic4). The DC fan-clan is well established. Correct me if I’m wrong.
On the brighter side, Fortnite collaborations of late have been fantastic, with Marvel, Star Wars, and Dragon Ball collaborations keeping the player community glued to their screens. If Superman is indeed coming, then such a huge win for DC fans! One Punch Man arriving as well? That is just icing on the cake.
Wrapping up with some info on the leaks, it is expected that new season rollout begins after the live event on June 8th. With some downtime on ~ticking up, boom, Season 3~ soon after. Be it Superman, Saitama, or some other surprise; what is clear is this: Fortnite is not slowing down.
Now eyes must remain glued, as this teaser can only mean straight upward. So, if you are still holding out for that Teen Titans battle pass… maybe next time.
