Here's all we know about the John Wick and Fortnite collaboration

In Fortnite, there are many allusions to the upcoming collaboration with John Wick, including changes to the map, reported issues, and so on. Here is what we know.

In the Season 9 update, a few leaked files were added, suggesting a collaboration between John Wick and Fortnite. Some map changes that were made at the beginning of the season also tell us the direction to follow for the collaboration. Here is everything we know so far.

Modifications of the fortuitous map related to John Wick

In the season 9 update, many map changes have been made. The most obvious reference to John Wick is the house that has been added to Paradise Palms. It looks exactly like John Wick's house in the movie.

Another change that you may not have noticed is the Neo Tilted Continental Hotel, which bears the same symbol as the John Wick movie hotel, although it is written Neo Tilted downstairs instead of New York.

Fortnite weapon additions related to John Wick

At the beginning of the season, everyone was shocked by the fact that the Pump Shotgun was used and the Shotgun Combat was introduced instead. According to IMFDB, John Wick used a Benelli M4 Super 90 shotgun in the film and, therefore, to be able to add this weapon to Fortnite, the Pump Shotgun had to be sacrificed. It is possible that the Pump Shotgun will come back after the collaboration, but we will have to wait and see.

Leaks suggest that a tactical assault rifle will be added to the game in the next update, which is yet another weapon used by John Wick. If you look closely at the tactical assault rifle and the assault rifle that John Wick uses, you can see a logo, which looks very similar. We have highlighted the logo in the image below.

LTL leak and John Wick's challenges

The Data Miners have managed to find, in the files added in the Fortnite update, challenges for the Wick's Bounty LTM. These challenges can be seen below. Two of the challenges below are for players who deal damage with the weapons mentioned above. It seems that there will also be exclusive cosmetics for players that complement these challenges, an umbrella and a wrap.
