The long-awaited Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 is finally here, and with it comes a brand new set of weapons that has sent fans into a frenzy as usual. With many weapons being introduced, one weapon has undoubtedly grabbed the spotlight, the Bomb Flower in Fortnite. Now, you might be wondering why that name sounds familiar, right? We did, too, until we learned that the Bomb Flower was a throwable weapon in Legend of Zelda games. Does this suggest that there may be a collaboration between these two iconic games? Many fans believe this certainly hints at Fortnite having a possible Zelda collab. Let’s see why.

What a pun-tastic title, am I right? Before we get carried away with the puns, let us see why fans believe that the addition of the new weapon: Bomb Flower, possibly means a collab between Fortnite and Legend of Zelda.

Licensing and legal considerations:
- Collaborations between two major franchises, Fortnite and The Legend of Zelda, would require complex negotiations and licensing agreements. Both Epic Games (the developers of Fortnite) and Nintendo would need to agree to use Zelda-themed content in Fortnite. Without official announcements or leaks pointing towards such negotiations, it’s difficult to conclude that a collaboration is in the works.
- We all know Nintendo’s history of trying to sue companies because of copyright. Now as hilarious as it may sound, we don’t think Fortnite will risk it by using a name of a weapon from Nintendo’s biggest hit: The Legend of Zelda.
Limited leaks and information:
- On the contrary, given Nintendo’s stance on collaborations with other games, it’s doubtful that a collaboration between Fortnite and Zelda will happen.
- Many leaks are unavailable at this time, particularly on the Bomb Flower in Fortnite, so it becomes harder to speculate whether this could lead to a collab between Fortnite and Zelda.
- Without reliable leaks supporting the idea of a Zelda collaboration, it’s challenging to validate the claims made by fans.
So Zelda and Fortnite fans, the only thing left for us to do right now is to wait. Our advice? Keep an eye out for any kind of Zelda-themed content once the new season of Fortnite goes live. Not to worry, we will keep you updated with all kinds of news and updates regarding the matter. One thing gamers have realized over the years is that Fortnite is unpredictable when it comes to their collaborations.
