Marvel Comics superhero, Deadpool, will be hijacking The Yacht in Fortnite starting from Friday, April 3rd.
Since the beginning of Fortnite Season 2, we have known that Deadpool would feature in some way. His weekly challenges led fans to believe that he would be the “secret skin” that is usually unlocked at the end of a Fortnite season. However, we now know he will play a much bigger part in the story.
Confirming the leaks that surfaced following the recent v12.30 patch, Deadpool himself has announced that he will be taking over the new POI, The Yacht. A post from the official @Deadpool Twitter account, claimed “Starting tomorrow, I’M crashing this party”.
Starting tomorrow, I’M crashing this party. There’ll be music, tacos, and a whole lotta Deadpool.

The post included an image of The Yacht, which Deadpool has graffitied, establishing his territory. The tweet also added, “There’ll be music, tacos, and a whole lotta Deadpool”. Exciting stuff!
So, from what we have seen, it seems like Deadpool will become the new boss at this Mythic location. He will probably be guarding the ship with his Dual Wield Hand Cannons, which were discovered in the game files by Fortnite leaker @Hypex.
There have also been images of a potential Deadpool themed Battle Bus, as well as supply drops rocking his red and black colourway. What else this huge crossover will entail we will have to wait and see, but one thing is for sure, you won’t want to miss it!
