Epic Games have finally confirmed that a brand new Borderlands 3 collaboration is coming to Fortnite Battle Royale, bringing a whole host of new cosmetics, free rewards, and huge changes to the desert biome as well.
The developers of the popular free-to-play title had hinted at the arrival of Fortnite X Mayhem content just a day before the v10.20 patch went live in-game and it has now been announced.
This collaboration will be a limited-time addition to the battle royale game mode and is set to end on September 10, bringing some new features in the meantime. A fresh Pandora Rift Zone location has popped up in the spot where players spotted a Rift Beacon, replacing the Truck ‘n’ Oasis Truck Stop.
