Update: It was heavily rumoured towards the tail-end of last month, but now it's official: Autobot leader Optimus Prime will roll out in the latest season of Fortnite, which is set to get underway later this week.
We're still awaiting confirmation of whether or not he'll be able to transform, but we suspect if he can, that may create some balancing issues for Epic Games to address.
Original Story: Everybody's favourite Autobot will debut in the upcoming season of Fortnite, according to a couple of oft reliable sources. Optimus Prime, the Transformers GOAT and an inspiration to us all, is coming in Chapter 4, Season 3, according to both known Fortnite leakers HYPEX and Ambushments.
At this point, it's starting to feel like the well of memorable and nostalgic characters will run dry before Fortnite's stranglehold on our childhood memories is through. Are you looking forward to Prime's inclusion, and are there any other disguised robots you are hoping to make an appearance? Let us know in the comments section below.

Why? Stop doing this, some of these are ***** stupid.
Bumblebee and Megatron are a must.
Im still waiting for the Back to the Future collab with a DeLorean glider.
@BeerIsAwesome they’ll start digging around for less popular IP… Can’t wait for Angry Beavers or cat dog in Fortnite. Maybe an Alice in wonderland Fortnite themed event would be cool.
@Yuyukirby why so angry? Don't like it. Don't play it. Simples.
@BeerIsAwesome I would pay top dollar for Gandhi. At least getting killed by Gandhi will be better than getting killed by goku black #8664
If they do a G1 Megatron skin will buy my first skin in over a year.
Ooh nice, I was getting bored or this season when I thought it ended Friday 6/2 but it still has like another week left after that. Last summer was really fun, hope they can come close to that.
That's a such an odd choice of skin as good old Optimus should be as tall as a couple of houses. I'd have to imagine it will look like a cosplayer running around.
@NinjaNicky trios are back already
Glad to know my memory isn't completely swiss cheese, I actually remembered some of these comments from last month. Took me like 6 to figure it out though. 😂
Not surprising with the latest movie releasing in a few days.
