FULL STORY
======================================================================

 Fortnite might be packed with exciting collaborations, but according to 
current Doctor Who showrunner and executive producer Russell T Davies, the 
rumors of the British sci-fi series crossing over with the eternally popular 
battle royale game are totally false. 

As spotted by Eurogamer , Davies was asked by a fan on Instagram yesterday 
(February 11) about the supposed collaboration, to which he replied: There 
isnt one! Its a complete myth, Im afraid. 

Given how many crossovers Fortnite has, there are constantly loads of rumors 
circulating regarding the potential TV shows, movies, anime series, and 
characters that are speculated to be on the way. As youd expect, however, not 
all of these end up materializing in the game, and if Davies statement holds 
true, it doesnt sound like players can expect to run around the battle royale 
island as The Doctor any time soon, if ever. 

With that said, its worth noting that last year, BBC Studios revealed a 
Doctor Who -themed Creative Mode island, which players could visit to 
complete challenges and repair the TARDIS. This wasnt created or sponsored by 
Fortnite developer Epic Games, however, and there were no in-game rewards 
such as emotes, skins, or back blings to go along with it, which is certainly 
what most fans would be keen to see. 

Right now, in Fortnite , the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles -themed event, 
Cowabunga, is in full swing. As well as all of the TMNT skins (Leonardo, 
Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo, as well as April ONeil and Splinter) 
being back in the item shop, players can complete Cowabunga quests for 
rewards, such as the free Turtle Blimp Glider. There are also four new TMNT 
-themed mythic weapons - Raphaels Sai, Leonardo's Katanas, Donatello's Staff, 
and Michelangelo's Nunchaku - available to find and use in the game.
