I do be hating this with a burning passion.

Sooooo yet another update. Kratos can be used on the Xbox & I presume Switch versions of Fortnite. Once Chief comes, he’ll have a non-Minecraft appearance on a Nintendo console.

I really don't know how much this counts, seeing as crossplay is in a legal grey area. It's no wonder why Sony was initially reluctant on allowing it for Fortnite, tho.

Well there’s been system exclusive costumes in the past. Sony is allowing people to buy Kratos on Switch & Xbox. That’s a pretty big deal.

Still, Chief is more likely than Kratos because of history of close relationships aka Switch ports and two Smash inclusions.

That, and his series impact on the genre of FPS as a whole.

If Chief was revealed next year, the circumstances would be interesting... The 20th anniversary of both Xbox and Halo..

It would be arguably the best time to do so

Oh of course. I was just talking about how crazy it is that the supposed “Nintendo appearance” rule doesn’t apply to him anymore. & it soon won’t apply to our boy.

CP 6 (Min Min): Late June 2020
CP 7 (Steve): Early October 2020
CP 8: January-Early February/ Winter 2021
CP 9: April-May/Spring 2021
CP 10: Revealed at E3, released in Summer 2021
CP 11 (Master Chief???): Possible reveal at E3, otherwise announced and released in Winter 2021
I imagine this is what we could possibly see. At this point a Microsoft character was announced for E3 twice now (sort of, Why not go for 3. Also I accept no head cannon where Master Chief is not finishing the fight...er's pass... Vol 2.

Chief being teased as coming to Smash Bros to end Microsoft's E3 press conference would be interesting

Chief being the final character would be amazing. But I’m betting on a Nintendo character being the finale.

I still don't see Chief as likely until the Master Chief Collection port is confirmed to exist. That would be more substantial than skins.
If the Slayer is in this pass, it would have been due to a deal having been done before the Bethesda acquisition, so nothing would be affected really.

Could've sworn the acquisition was well into it when the fighters for the second fighter pass were being decided, but okay then
SpectreJordan

Microsoft doesn’t officially own Bethesda until next summer when the deal is done. Also, I think MS would absolutely double dip. The question is whether or not Nintendo wants to or if they want to work with other companies.
& here’s more proof of Microsoft putting Chief everywhere they can. They’re really pushing him as an icon again.

The Scorpion Punch armor reminds me of Commander Shepard's N7 armor.

I have an idea for Master Chief's stage
Installation 04: "The legendary Forerunner artifiact awaits"
The platform is located on the Pillar of Autumn during the events of Halo: Combat Evolved. Occasionally, Wraiths will fire upon the stage causing a bit of damage to anyone caught in the line of fire.. A Hunter appears as a stage boss..
Also throughout the scene in the background, we'll see cameos from Tartarus, the Grunts, Fireteam Raven, etc.

I think stage gimmick can include teleportation grid like in Halo multiplayer. That would be fun.

If it looks good & has a good amount of content at launch, then I’m fine with the wait. This means I can wait a bit longer to buy a Series X too lolWe be waiting quite a while

Hm I don’t know how to feel about Chief in fortnight. Is it good or bad :/
IanTheGamer

Chief's in Fortnite, now time to finish the fight in Smash, please Sakurai

Is it just me or does a fortnight inclusion just feel oddly disrespectful of the character. (Probably just me tho)

It means Microsoft is pushing Chief hard, so a good thing

He's there alongside Kratos, Mando, Thanos, Venom and a whole bunch of Marvel characters among others
"Disrespectful" is the last word I'd use to describe it
IanTheGamer
Smash Champion
Exactly, it means Microsoft is pushing him hard.. Thus, this also means they likely asked for Chief in Smash when Nintendo was negotiating for Banjo
MagnesD3
Smash Master
I hope your right.
To me that makes it worst since it’s just whoring out popular thing (smash feels more respectful), idk it’s probably just because I don’t respect fortnight.

I mean why wouldn't they? Chief has a game coming and they're pushing him as an icon

It’s less on Microsoft I’m more worried Nintendo will be the barrier since he is extremely gun focused and doesn’t have a Japanese audience. I think he should be in but he’s more in the possibility camp more than the likely camp.
IanTheGamer

Thing is, Joker has a realistic gun, plus Microsoft may have insisted on it as a package in exchange for Banjo

Master Chief’s officially on a Nintendo console boys. That fan rule can’t apply to him anymore.

I feel like Chief has weirdly good odds, even with Steve

Seriously, does anyone have proof of Chief being available on Switch for Fortnite

My friend who plays on switch has him and played as him.
