Fortnite has released its first official teaser for Chapter 6 Season 3, sparking speculation about a potential superhero theme. This comes as Epic Games faces legal challenges regarding its use of AI technology in the game's current Star Wars-themed season.

The current Galactic Battle season introduced iconic Star Wars characters like General Grievous and Emperor Palpatine to Fortnite's island. However, the inclusion of an AI-voiced Darth Vader NPC has drawn controversy, leading to legal action from SAG-AFTRA. The actors' union claims this use of AI technology replaces human voice actors' jobs.

LEGO Fortnite Collaboration

In related news, LEGO has released three new Fortnite-themed sets featuring popular in-game characters. These physical sets come with special in-game rewards for players, continuing the successful partnership between Epic Games and the toy manufacturer.

Superhero Theme Speculation

Prominent Fortnite leaker HYPEX recently pointed out potential clues about Chapter 6 Season 3's theme. While Epic Games' official announcement focused on LEGO collaborations, their mention of "super-scale news" has led many to speculate about a superhero season. Additional leaks suggest original superhero skin concepts may appear in the upcoming season.

Potential Superman Crossover

Another leak by ShiinaBR suggests Fortnite might collaborate with James Gunn's Superman movie, scheduled for release on July 11. This timing aligns perfectly with Chapter 6 Season 3's expected launch. Rumors indicate players might gain Superman-like abilities during matches, similar to previous transformations like the Godzilla event in Chapter 6 Season 1.

While Fortnite has a history of Marvel collaborations, there's no confirmation of Marvel characters appearing in the upcoming season. This has disappointed some fans, but others are excited about potential original superhero concepts coming to the battle royale.
