Get ready to crack open a cold Steveweiser, drink a swig of beer for the working man, and unleash a can of whoop ass in Fortnite with Stone Cold Steve Austin starting on April 16.
Fortnite has confirmed that a Steve Austin skin will be joining the game this Thursday. WWE WrestleMania takes place this weekend, and Austin’s inclusion in the popular Battle Royale is all part of the celebration for the biggest WWE event of the year.
Will Liv Morgan Join Stone Cold in Fortnite?
When it was first rumored that Steve Austin was coming to the game, it was also stated that Liv Morgan, a current WWE Superstar and the challenger for the WWE Women’s World Championship this weekend, would also be joining the game. She has not been confirmed yet.
Morgan, by virtue of winning the WWE Royal Rumble in January, earned the right to challenge Stephanie Vaquer at WrestleMania. That match will take place on the first night of WrestleMania, Saturday, April 18.
Stone Cold Steve Austin’s Greatest Rival Is Part of Fortnite Lore
In the days of the WWE Attitude Era, Austin was best known for his feud with The Rock. Dwayne Johnson is in Fortnite, but he’s part of the deeper game lore as he portrays The Foundation. Other WWE Superstars featured in the game as skins include The Undertaker, John Cena, and Bianca Belair. Cena will also be part of this weekend’s WrestleMania, hosting the event.
Steve Austin made his video game debut in WCW Main Event on the Nintendo Game Boy in 1994. He has been in nearly every WWE game since WWF War Zone in 1998. Now, he becomes even more of a legendary video game character by joining the Battle Royale which may put him as an ally or rival to Marvel characters such as Spider-Man, legendary cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny or SpongeBob SquarePants, and other crazy crossovers.
