Leakers are reporting an upcoming appearance of League of Legends champion Jinx in Fortnite. Timed to coincide with the launch of the Netflix series Arcane.
Fortnite leaker ShiinaBr on Saturday teased a crossover of the Battle Royale with MOBA League of Legends. Reportedly, one of the main characters will also appear in Fortnite in the wake of Riot Games’ new Netflix series Arcane: The maniacal, blue-haired gun lover Jinx.
According to ShiibaBR, the collaboration should be coming this week. However, there has been no official confirmation from Riot Games and Epic Games themselves as of yet. The animated series Arcane starts next Saturday on Netflix. There may then also be more information about the crossover with Fortnite.

What exactly the Jinx skin will look like in the game is still unknown. Artist:in Shanyshdw already shared his own concept on Friday, featuring Jinx dancing to various Fortnite emotes.
Epic Games has collaborated with various development studios for crossovers several times in the past. For example, there are skins for Street Fighter characters, Lara Croft from Tomb Raider or the God of War Kratos. Whether Jinx will actually jump off the Battle Bus soon remains to be seen. Maybe she will bring her sister Vi with her, who will also play a leading role in Arcane.
