Eric ‘ConcernedApe’ Barone, the creator of Stardew Valley, has expressed interest in a potential crossover between his game and Fortnite. He revealed in a Discord conversation that he has been trying to collaborate with Epic Games to bring Stardew Valley content into Fortnite. Despite Barone’s enthusiasm, Epic Games has not publicly or privately responded to his request, but this hasn’t deterred Barone from sharing a few ideas for how the crossover could work.
Barone mentioned that he would like to see Stardew Valley characters, such as Pam, in Fortnite. He’s open to collaborating in various ways and is eager to see Stardew Valley’s elements integrated into Fortnite. Barone’s openness to different possibilities suggests he is flexible in how this crossover could be executed, showing his excitement to make the collaboration a reality.
The idea of a Fortnite x Stardew Valley crossover is significant due to the popularity of both games. A collaboration between the two would likely generate a lot of excitement and attention online. Barone seems particularly interested in bringing Stardew Valley content into Fortnite, rather than incorporating Fortnite elements into Stardew Valley, but he is generally enthusiastic about any potential collaboration.
Given Fortnite’s history of crossovers with various popular IPs, including characters and items from different media, a Stardew Valley collaboration would be in line with Epic Games’ past endeavors. While it would be a noteworthy addition to Fortnite’s extensive list of crossovers, it is not something outside of Epic’s typical scope. Fans of both games would likely find such a crossover intriguing and exciting.
