Wizards of the Coast, a subsidiary of Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS), today announced a collab with Chartis and Teravision Games, two of the leading community creators of Fortnite Islands including Zombie Escape Tag and Havoc Hotel. These creators have launched a special series of fan-made islands inspired by DUNGEONS & DRAGONS, the World’s Greatest Role-Playing Game.
These custom Fortnite Islands are built by long-time D&D fans at both Chartis and Teravision, using Epic’s UEFN toolset, and designed as part of a “launch and learn” initiative to explore how D&D can connect with a diverse range of Fortnite players in fun and meaningful ways. The five islands include a PvP arena, a social hub, a platformer, a co-op boss fight, and the largest co-op roguelike in Fortnite history.
Fortnite and D&D players both new and old will now have the chance to enjoy the action and creativity of Fortnite with D&D-inspired twists. They will visit familiar D&D locations in the Forgotten Realms including the Yawning Portal tavern, the Spine of the World mountains, Mount Hotenow, and many more, and will battle some of the legends of D&D including Klauth the ancient red dragon and feared necromancer Valindra Shadowmantle.
“We’re bringing the spirit of D&D homebrew to Fortnite – supporting creators, experimenting in new mediums, and learning how we can introduce D&D to new players,” said Nick Strann, Franchise Strategy Director for DUNGEONS & DRAGONS at Wizards of the Coast. “D&D already means so much to all those who have joined us at the table, and we hope that we can make it just as meaningful for millions of Fortnite fans. We very much look forward to hearing player feedback on these creator-made islands and using that feedback to shape future adventures wherever people love D&D.”
