Can You See Him?
John Cena will arrive in Fortnite as part of Epic Game’s Epic Summerslam event, which brings a variety of wrestling and WWE-themed content to many of its games, particularly Fortnite and Rocket League. In fact, in addition to John Cena’s arrival in Fortnite, Epic Games will be bringing John Cena and Roman Reigns-themed Octane decals to Rocket League on July 28 as well at around 9 AM ET.
While Epic Games promised that John Cena’s outfit would not have an invisibility feature in the press, that remains to be seen. Fans will have to wait and see on launch day to verify for themselves.
The update will also bring new items to the Item Shop as part of the John Cena Set, including a WWE Championship Title Belt Bling, an open-hand Five Digit Slapper Pickaxe, and a U Can’t C Me Emote.
The Epic Summerslam event is also set to bring three costume bundles to Fall Guys, each representing a different WWE superstar, according to Epic Games. They are based on Asuka, Xavier Woods, and The Undertaker.
In addition, those who pick up the bundle in-game will receive an additional Xavier Woods Emote and an Undertaker Victory Celebration, both of which will be available in the Epic Games Store at 5 AM ET on July 28.
The WWE superstar is also known outside of wrestling for his respectable career as an actor, appearing most recently as the Peacemaker in DC’s Suicide Squad as well as his own series.
