Epic Games, which is frequently known for its Fortnite and free games, has received a huge investment. Disney, which also owns Marvel, invested 1.5 billion dollars in the company and a new cooperation between them has begun.

Epic Games is on fire with Fortnite.

Fortnite, which has long been at the top of the Battle Royale genre, is one of Epic Games' biggest sources of revenue. In addition to collaborations with different brands, it has become a game that has made a name for itself with in-game events and even concerts. Now, a partnership with Disney is being established and a new universe will be built as a result of this partnership.

The Walt Disney Company invests $1.5 billion in Epic Games.

As a result of this collaboration, a completely new game and entertainment universe will be created within Fortnite. This universe will include Marvel, Pixar, Star Wars and many other worlds. It can be thought of as a kind of 'Metaverse' universe.

We will have more specific announcements very soon.

There was already a partnership between the two companies.

Based on the Marvel characters in Fortnite seasons and Disney characters in some seasons, these two companies have already been in partnership for a while. However, this time they are going into a much different planning. The most revealing example will probably be Lego Fortnite. A Disney universe will be waiting for us, just like Lego content.
