Fortnite Season 6 has just released today with a new selection of characters that will be part of the Battle Pass and story. Among these character is a well know Fortnite character Agent Jones who is now sporting the Arashikage Tattoo it what would seem to be another GIJOE Fortnite crossover.
With Hasbro Pulse Fan Fest scheduled for April 9th, 2021 we should get to see how hasbro will handle the Fortnite toys and get a closer look at new Classified GIJOE action figures. Stay Tuned!
Yesterday, we brought you the news of Hasbro’s latest collaboration between G.I. Joe and World Of Tanks. Today, we have received a massive update from official channels of the game.
Transmission Incoming: Cobra Commander
Greetings from one Commander to another!
You know, Commander, they call me mercilessss. I would say effective… Oh… I managed to get to you before that fool Duke? Then disregard what I said. You see, me and my associates, we’re not just rebels at heart. We’re inventors, industrialists, and armored vehicle enthusiasts. I can see you are into powerful tanks. Look at this specimen we’ve recently assembled in our secret lair… I mean, our skunkworks facility. The Cobra B.O.A. can obliterate your enemies… and finally give ussss a chance to prevail over G.I. Joe. I have some military experience and would like to help you reach your goalssss.
Your decision is now, Commander. COBRA!!!
Transmission Incoming: Duke
Wherever there’s trouble, G.I. Joe is there, Commander!
I’m Duke, a G.I. Joe operative, and I’m honored to make your acquaintance. I’ll cut straight to the chase. Our intel has confirmed that Cobra have recently developed a new secret armored weapon to get an edge over us. So, we’re going to establish a presence in World of Tanks to contain the threat. We could use the help of a seasoned tanker like you, riding in our brand-new G.I. Joe Breakthrough Tank. The B.T.T. is well protected, packs quite a punch, and should be able to deal with that crazy Cobra gizmo, the B.O.A., should you meet on the battlefield. Hey, I would even go to the frontline with you.
Can’t wait to get into action again. YO JOE!!

Batman versus Snake Eyes. That’s it. That’s the solicit. You heard us, BATMAN VERSUS SNAKE EYES! Yes, THAT Snake Eyes! Worlds collide on the Island as G.I.

Hasbro’s 2021 Investor Day is currently on the way and we are hit with a big one.
Hasbro subsidiary Wizards Of The Coast just showcased concept artwork for a brand new G.I. Joe Digital Game.
You can take a look at the art after the jump. We will update this new post with more info and more images soon.
Update – additional concept art pic added.
The next update for Fortnite is about to be deployed and details are already coming in regarding its content.
The patch seems to contain a locked Set titled as ‘Arashikage Clan‘. A ‘Set’ on Fortnite is a bundle of character skins and equipment belonging to a particular theme.
Arashikage Clan Set contains Snake Eyes and a Katana.
The Katana can be utilized as a Backbling; which is an accessory carried on the player character’s back. It can also be equipped as a weapon. In this case, the Katana will fall under the Pickaxe Category of the game. This category usually hosts melee weapons.
The name given to the Set is an interesting one. Instead of using the name ‘Snake Eyes Set’, as used by Kratos and Master Chief, the use of ‘Arashikage Clan’ may indicate a possible future addition to the set. It is likely that Storm Shadow may join his fellow clan member just like T-800 and Sarah Connor; whose set is called ‘Future War Set’ instead of using their individual names.
The new update is rumored to hit tonight.
This is it.
Fortnite character (and Duke lookalike) John “Jonesy” Jones, just sent out his Reality Log #10155 to all players. Surprise, surprise…
“:: Incoming Transmission – Reality Log 10155 :: Target Description: Ninja Master
Sorry. Hearing’s a little shot because, wow, it’s just non-stop laser guns and explosions here. So, this target’s gonna be perfect. Him and his buddies are all the real deal and they have the best code names. Whoever’s unlucky enough to be in his crosshairs, well, they’ll never hear him coming. But if they could, then they would know he means business.
And knowing is half the battle.
-Jonesy”
Reality Logs are tapes recorded by John Jones while he is searching through realities for best hunters. They were initially released as teasers for Chapter 2: Season 5 abut more have released to tease new hunters such as Kratos (God Of War), Master Chief (Halo) and Sarah Connor (The Terminator). The latest, as stated above, is for Snake Eyes.
Mere hours after a hint drop by Donald Mustard, it seems as though Fortnite is finally getting ready for the arrival of G.I. Joes in their universe.
When can we see expect the reveal? Character trailers are usually dropped approximately 2 hours after the Reality Log. So, any minute now.
Back in last October, Epic Games‘ Chief Creative Officer Donald Mustard hinted at a possible G.I. Joe x Fortnite collaboration.
Today, Mr. Mustard posted a new pic via Twitter, with the official G.I. Joe Twitter Account replying immediately with a thinking emoji.
The photo shows Donald Mustard reading Silent Interlude. Adding to that, he has purposely rolled up his left sleeve to reveal an Arashikage tattoo; as seen on Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow.
Recently, the famous battle royale game is revealing quite a lot of collaborations including Marvel, Halo, God Of War, The Terminator Franchise and The Predator.
It is likely that we would see an official announcement soon.
Update: Teasing the fans even more, Donald Mustard has set a new location for his Twitter Profile. His location now reads as ‘Arashikage Clan’.
PC edition of G.I. Joe: Operation Blackout is available now on Steam for just $23.99. This offer is only available until December 21.
