Dragon Ball Super characters are coming to Fortnite
On Tuesday, Epic Games announced that characters from beloved anime and manga series Dragon Ball Super are coming to battle royale sensation, Fortnite. Abilities and items from the series will also be available for players to snag during this event.
The four Dragon Ball Super characters coming to Fortnite are Son Goku, Vegeta, Bulma, and Beerus. Alongside them, the game has a new Tournament of Power tab where all players can complete seven sets of quests to earn Dragon Balls and other in-game rewards. After a set is completed players will earn a Dragon Ball for it. Raising your power level will unlock battle pass levels and cosmetics like Back Bling and sprays.
Those who complete the quest tracker and find all seven magic orbs will receive the Shenron Glider, which looks like the green dragon it’s named for. These DB-themed quests and the corresponding rewards tracker will be available until August 30 at 4 a.m. ET. Fans should note, though, that items like the Shenron Glider and Dragon Radar Back Bling aren’t exclusive to this event and may appear in the Item Shop for purchase at a later date.
Those looking to equip abilities from the iconic series are in luck as well. Items that bestow players with the Kamehameha power will fall from the sky during matches, allowing them to shoot a massive energy blast across the map. Players will also have access to the Nimbus Cloud (Kintoun) item that will allow them to fly across the map. These items aren’t available in any competitive playlists aside from the Tournament of Power.
Fortnite’s Dragon Ball event is also introducing a new system called Versus Boards. By choosing to participate and interacting with boards placed around the island, players can opt into a rivalry where they and an opponent get five minutes to find and eliminate the other. Versus Boards are temporarily taking the place of Bounty Boards and will be located in the same areas.
