Fortnite Season 5 has a plethora of content from other franchises. We’ve seen the presence of The Mandalorian and God Of War in Season 5 alone. Now, there is evidence that The Predator may show up to give players a new challenge.
The fourth season of Fortnite ended its Marvel-centric run with the ultimate battle against Galactus. Now, Chapter 2 Season 5 has begun, and we see some new crossovers. The Mandalorian has headlined the season, and Kratos from God of War has landed on the island.
There are also rumors of other franchises coming into the game during Season 5. Recent leaks hinted at a Halo crossover, along with some Jurassic World content. Now we might see yet another franchise come into play within the world of Fortnite.
Some new leaks, along with in-game evidence, suggest that the alien hunter known as The Predator will be in Fortnite Season 5.
A tweet from T5G presents evidence that The Predator’s arrival will be related to one of the newest additions to the map: Stealthy Stronghold. Exploring this location reveals 3 nods to the franchise. The first is a logo featuring the iconic creature aiming down its laser sight.
This location also has a truck resembling the one in the Predator movie. If you follow the trees along the river, you will also spot a crashed helicopter. This initially seemed like a Jurassic World reference, but it could very well be a nod to the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger classic.

Fortnite’s official Twitter account released an audio transmission from Jones, and you can find another piece of evidence in there.
Ten seconds into the tape you can hear Jones’ say the word “Predators,” and then you hear a roar that sounds like the creature.

The final piece of evidence comes from a leaker, FortTory, who discovered files that hint at a secret boss hidden within Stealthy Strongholds. He thinks that this could be another reference to The Predator or maybe some other mysterious enemy.
There are files referencing to a possible boss at Stealthy Strongholds.
So whoever could this possible boss be? The Predator as some people theorize or someone else?

These all appear to be strong signs of a potential Predator crossover, but keep in mind that none of this has been officially confirmed yet. Until we hear otherwise from Epic Games, these might not amount to anything.
If these rumors do prove true, and we see The Predator show up in Fortnite Season 5, it would be thrilling. Once we hear something official about this, we’ll be sure to update you.
