In the spirit of October spooky games, the gaming community is eagerly awaiting a series of chilling releases. At the forefront is Remedy’s highly anticipated “Alan Wake 2.” The central character, Alan Wake, is not just restricted to his game; he’s making a grand entry into the Fortnite universe. Given Epic Games is the publisher for both Fortnite and “Alan Wake 2”, this intriguing collaboration was predictable.
In the promotional materials, Alan Wake is depicted in a sharp black suit, tactfully maneuvering and confronting foes. However, the Fortnitemares 2023 event isn’t just spotlighting him. Notable characters like the iconic Michael Myers from “Halloween” and Jack Skellington from “The Nightmare Before Christmas” are set to spook players in Fortnite.
This year’s Fortnitemares offers a trove of exciting additions. Players can arm themselves with new weapons such as the Wood Stake Shotgun, Thorne’s Vampiric Blade, and not to forget, the Pumpkin Launcher. For those keen on unique traversal methods, the Witch Broom awaits, propelling users into the skies.
The fan-favorite Horde Rushes return, available throughout the event’s duration. Players can delve into these challenges to earn XP and a range of Locker items:
- Secure 1 Horde Rush Quest to snag The Murk Wrap.
- Complete 4 Horde Rush Quests for the Heart-o-Lantern Emoticon.
- Master 7 Horde Rush Quests to lay hands on the Batwing Bonespike Pickaxe.
Fortnitemares also presents a host of quests, each promising rewarding XP and collectibles:
- Accomplish 5 Fortnitemares Quests to add the Bat Royale Back Bling and a Cat Banner Icon to your collection.
- Complete 15 Fortnitemares Quests to get the Sweet! Emote, Phantasmic Fall Contrail, and Hypno-Bat Spray.
- Conquer 25 Fortnitemares Quests and claim the Revenant Rider Glider, Within the Sanctum Loading Screen, and Rise of the Revenant Lobby Track.
Although the launch date for the Alan Wake skin in Fortnite is still under wraps, players can enjoy Fortnitemares until its conclusion on November 3 at 2 AM ET.
