**Epic Games’ popular battle royale game, Fortnite, recently added the comic book version of Negan to its Item Shop, prompting fan speculation about the inclusion of the TV show version played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan.** The Walking Dead has already made its mark on Fortnite, with skins of Daryl Dixon, Michonne, and Rick Grimes previously released. However, these were based on the AMC television series. Negan’s addition marks the first time a character from the comics has been included in the game.
Morgan, responding to fan inquiries, expressed his excitement at the possibility of his Negan joining the Fortnite roster alongside the comic book version. He playfully noted that it would give him a chance to “hang out” virtually with Andrew Lincoln (Rick Grimes) again.
While the possibility of adding Morgan’s Negan to Fortnite exists, the details of the licensing agreements with AMC and Robert Kirkman (the creator of The Walking Dead comics) remain undisclosed. This raises questions about potential conflicts or competition in selling different versions of the same character.
Nevertheless, the inclusion of the comic book Negan, available in the Item Shop until April 11th as part of the “Survivor in Arms” set, has reignited fan hopes for future collaborations and the addition of Morgan’s portrayal of the iconic villain. The set also includes Negan’s signature weapon, Lucille, as a pickaxe, and other themed cosmetics.
