We previously informed you about Fortnite partnering with Naughty Dog to bring a Last Of Us collab into the game. However, the news has turned false, as the informant itself has apologized for misleading fans. Epic Games partner and Fortnite news informant Shiiina previously tweeted about the partnership between Fortnite and Last Of Us.

They claimed the franchises shaking hands to release a Joel and Ellie-inspired skin in the game. But now, a recent tweet has surfaced on the internet, where they confirmed no such thing. The tweet came in right after Naughty Dog’s President put out a post mentioning it.

However, the news has turned fake as Naughty Dog President has denied it. Hours after Shiiina’s first tweet, Neil Druckmann posted a tweet talking about this. He said, “Love me some Fortnite… but there are no plans for this. False rumor.” Apart from this, Neil also added Shiiina’s post in the caption, which seems to be deleted by now.

But that does not mean the Fortnite informant discarded the issue entirely. In fact, they uploaded a detailed letter explaining the reason behind putting the tweet. Shiiina started the letter by apologizing to the community, as they had no intention to mislead fans. After that, they listed each of the reasons behind this statement while mentioning its source. 

Towards the end of the letter, Shiiina once again apologized to their fans and asked for forgiveness. 

Shiiina thanks the community for all the support

Apart from going through this mental turmoil, the Epic Games partner put out a tweet talking about their journey. They mentioned the time when they started to post Fortnite leaks and went on to thank fans for their support.

Here’s what they said, “On this day 4 years ago, I started posting Fortnite leaks and haven’t stopped since. I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for your support over the past few years. This experience has been truly life-changing, and I’m not planning to stop anytime soon. Thank you.”
