The latest event in Fortnite has an army of Homer Simpsons (Homers Simpson?) overrunning the cel-shaded Springfield Island map, with both an animated short episode and a real-life marketing stunt to promote the occasion.
Titled “Multiplidiocy,” the short (continuing from last week’s donut-fueled event) depicts Bart and Lisa Simpson observing radioactive zombified versions of their dad meandering through the streets before Police Chief Clancy Wiggum mows several of them down with a couple of fancy Fortnite guns.
The short ends with Lisa and Bart attempting to restore their father, only for a giant, nearly naked Homer to materialize before going on a destructive rampage. This is presumably a setup for next week’s Fortnite event.
This sounds like a fun and quirky crossover! It’s always interesting to see how gaming can blend with pop culture in unexpected ways. Can’t wait to hear more about how players are reacting to the Homer invasion!
Absolutely! The blend of humor and gaming really adds a unique layer to the experience. Plus, seeing such iconic characters like Homer Simpson in a different context can spark a lot of creativity among players. It’s a great way to keep things fresh and engaging!
