Fortnite players think that one of Chapter 5's new gameplay mechanics, the Medallions you get from defeating bosses, aren't even worth the trouble of picking up.

Epic Games just sent out the latest Fortnite player survey and it hints at possible collaborations with some highly-requested series like Five Nights at Freddy's, The Boys, and even some Nintendo properties.
Considering 2023 is the year that Fortnite managed to get characters like Family Guy's Peter Griffin, Metal Gear Solid's Solid Snake, and even real-life celebrities like The Weeknd and Eminem, you might think that there's surely not many other properties that it has left to get in the game. As the latest player survey proves, though, you'd be wrong.
For those who don't know, Epic Games regularly sends out surveys to Fortnite players that ask them questions about the game, like which skins they'd be interested in. The most interesting thing to come from these surveys, however, is a big list of media franchises that could potentially be added to Fortnite if there's enough interest.
These player surveys have proven to give a good indication of what skins are being worked on for Fortnite right now, so it's worth paying attention to what's in them. As shown by reliable Fortnite insider ShiinaBR, there are a whole bunch of different properties in there this year, but there are a few that particularly stand out. The biggest of these is Chica from Five Nights at Freddy's being in the video game characters section, implying that long-awaited crossover is possible.
Another big one is the mention of Link from the Legend of Zelda in the same category, which suggests Epic is still trying its hardest to get Nintendo characters in the game, something that was previously said to be as hard as "making diamonds". On the much simpler side, there's also the mention of The Last of Us in the gaming series section, which seems like a very obvious choice and something that would make sense with Part 2 Remastered coming out next month.
Some of the characters from previous surveys who have ended up coming to Fortnite include Goku, Peter Griffin, Geralt, and more.
It's worth noting that not all of the survey picks are definitely things that are going to be put into action, as some of them don't make much sense - why put TMNT: Shredder's Revenge in there if TMNT is already a collaboration? Similarly, there are some repeated characters on there, like Peter Griffin being in the pop culture characters bit after having just been added to the game.

Vaults in Fortnite have always been a great way to get access to copious amounts of weapons, ammo, and loot. Now, if only they were out in the open.

Fortnite fans are calling for Epic Games to give the infamous Goku skin a long-awaited redesign, especially since the rest of the game's anime skins look so great.

Fortnite is the surprise hit of the winter gaming season. Although the battle royale game has maintained popularity for several years, it’s now seeing yet another massive surge in interest. Last week, Epic Games released several new modes that bring entirely different kinds of games to Fortnite. Among the additions is a rhythm game called Fortnite Festival. In it, players can form bands with others while playing as Fortnite characters. Now, players are using it to create the most absurd bands possible and share clips online as characters like Goku, Peter Griffin, Kratos, and Gojo hit the stage.
Fortnite Festival — the game's new rhythm-based mode developed by Rock Band studio Harmonix — will let you use your plastic guitars and drums in the future.
Wanting a piece of the Minecraft pie, Epic has teamed up with some iconic Danish toymakers to create their own flavour of a blocky open-world survival game and to help you jump in, we’ve got how to play LEGO Fortnite and if it is a separate game explained.
Fortnite’s long-awaited Chapter 5 will revamp the release’s traversal gameplay, while adding some headline new features, including a train and the ability to customise your weapon.

Gone are the days of scrounging up loot at dilapidated taco joints and rusty playgrounds in Fortnite. Epic Games released a massive new update to the battle royale game this week as part of Chapter 5 Season 1. The patch literally blew up the OG map with a meteor, replacing it with an entirely new, much fancier map. Instead of rough locales like Greasy Groves or Tomato Temple, players now explore palatial manors like Lavish Lair or the manicured vineyards of Pleasant Piazza. Fortnite is basically a fancy European vacation now, and it feels a bit outside my personal budget.
Epic Games wasn't resting on its laurels, it would seem, as following on from the dizzying heights of Fortnite OG, it has given us what we all wanted and put Peter Griffin in Fortnite — and we’ve got where to find him and how to get the skin explained.
Fortnite's big Chapter 5 update has strangely made a lot of its characters look a lot angrier, as it's removed smiling faces for anyone with default animations.
