- Fortnite is soon collaborating with the Cars franchise, introducing Lightning McQueen and Mater and real cars like Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat and Nissan Silvia.
- With a lot of real-life cars in the game already, Fortnite could add vehicles like the Batmobile or John Wick's Mustang to complement the existing NPCs.
- From my wishlist, I feel cars like Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo, Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters, or Mach 5 from Speed Racer could be the perfect fit too.
Fortnite never disappoints when it comes to featuring popular culture. Whether it is adding pop stars like Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, or even Eminem or just introducing the entire Marvel universe, Epic Games has done it all. While Fortnite currently lacks diverse vehicle options, an upcoming collaboration with the Cars franchise may introduce new car models to the game.
According to a known leaker on X, Fortnite is currently working on adding more vehicles to the game. The major highlight for this update will be the addition of Lightning McQueen & Mater. For those who don’t know, Lightning McQueen & Mater are two of the most popular characters from the Disney Pixar franchise ‘Cars’. While these are the only cars from the franchise, Fortnite will not stop there.
In addition to McQueen and Mater, we’ll see vehicles from other popular franchises. Here is a list of all the cars coming with the upcoming collab:
- Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat
- Lamborghini Countach LPI
- Volkswagen Golf GTI
- Ferrari 296 GTB
- Battle Bus SUV
- McLaren 570s
- Nissan Silvia
The list combines cars from the real-life world and other popular franchises. These include vehicles from the Fast and Furious, Rocket League, and the other car series Fortnite already had in the game.
Fortnite Should Add More Goofy Cars to the Game
While cars inspired by real life are always fun, there’s something to be said about extravagant design. When it comes to goofy cars, the Batmobile is a classic choice. Given Batman’s presence in the game, it would be an amazing addition.
Sadly this is unlikely due to Disney’s partnership with Epic Games. Nevertheless, other characters could have their own unique vehicles. For instance, John Wick’s Mustang would be a great fit. Additionally, more lighthearted options like the Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo could add a playful element to the game.
While these are common suggestions, I have a few of my own on my wishlist. One easily implementable car could be the iconic Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters. We could see the futuristic Mach 5 from Speed Racer, the whimsical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, the rugged Warthog from Halo, or even Doc Brown’s time-traveling DeLorean from Back to the Future. Ultimately, the decision of which vehicles to add to Fortnite rests with the Epic Games team but I sure hope they listen.
