Alleged details of an upcoming Doctor Who Fortnite crossover continue to leak — including the suggestion you'll be able to play as incumbent Fourteenth Doctor David Tennant, as well as upcoming Fifteenth Doctor Ncuti Gatwa.
Screenshots and file details suggest a major in-game event is planned ahead of Doctor Who's upcoming 60th anniversary later this year.
Initial details shared last week by prolific Fortnite leaker iFireMonkey included word of a two-week event with free cosmetic rewards, and additional items available to buy.
Now, a TARDIS interior-sized dump of further information has gone into more detail, including plans to sell Fortnite skins for the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Doctors, as well as a TARDIS glider, and an emote which uses the Doctor's handy Psychic Paper.
Free rewards are planned to include a Time Vortex contrail and an emote where you can wield the Doctor's Sonic Screwdriver. In-game, there are plans for outposts manned by UNIT personel, armed with sci-fi weapons. It also sounds like there will be a plotline linked to upcoming TV episodes which feature Baby Yoda-like creature Beep the Meep.
