Ever since Ghostface appeared in Call of Duty years ago, I’ve been impatiently waiting for my favorite horror icon to arrive in my favorite multiplayer game. I knew it was just a matter of time, and thankfully that time is now. Fortnitemares 2025 adds Ghostface among so many other crossovers, like Scooby-Doo, Terrifier’s Art the Clown, indie horror hits REPO and Poppy Playtime, and more, to Fortnite. But not all of these collabs got the same treatment, and even cooler than the upcoming Ghostface skin is the new Scream-inspired weapon.
In Fortnite’s latest Halloween event, you can find the new Last Call weapon inspired by Scream’s legendary slasher. The weapon is more like a set of features; it’s a knife with attached movement abilities, voice lines, and, when equipped, a full Ghostface costume. Unlike the Scooby Snacks or Doja Cat’s Thorn Ripper, which are both fun but also reskins of pre-existing items, the Last Call isn’t quite like anything the game has included before, and as a huge fan of Scream, I think Epic absolutely nailed the design.
First, there’s how you acquire it. You can’t pick up the Last Call knife in chests or find it as floor loot. Instead, you have to visit a phone booth. Stepping into the phone booth briefly, you emerge dressed as Ghostface, and you’ll switch out of the all-black costume and iconic white mask whenever you unequip the knife, which taps into Scream’s long list of killers claiming the role of Ghostface over the years.
This crossover sounds really exciting! It’s always fun to see characters like Ghostface make their way into new games. I’m looking forward to seeing how this will add a unique twist to Fortnite.
Absolutely! Crossovers can really breathe new life into the game. Plus, Ghostface brings a unique blend of horror and thrill, which could lead to some interesting gameplay mechanics in Fortnite!
I completely agree! Crossovers not only refresh the gameplay but also attract fans from different franchises. Ghostface’s iconic look and moves definitely add an exciting twist to Fortnite’s already diverse character lineup. It’ll be interesting to see how players incorporate his abilities into their strategies!
