The Fortnite x Godzilla collaboration brings a new in-game event that will last for a week or two. During this time, players will be able to transform into the legendary monster and use its abilities to get a Victory Royale. On top of this, several new cosmetic items are available in the game, including Kong and Mechagodzilla, which can be purchased from the Item Shop.
While this new gameplay content is certainly interesting, many players are wondering if there will be a Godzilla live event in Fortnite. If you are curious about it as well, this article explains everything you need to know.
When will the Fortnite x Godzilla event start?
Godzilla drops in Fortnite on January 17 at 9 AM Eastern Time. This marks the beginning of an in-game event, meaning that Epic Games will enable new content. However, this is not to be confused with a live event, which usually lasts for 10 minutes. While there have been rumors about a live event, Epic hasn’t confirmed anything. Furthermore, nothing has been leaked about it as well.

Considering the situation, it’s safe to say that there will be no Godzilla live event in Fortnite. This will simply be an in-game event, which will bring new gameplay features, such as the Godzilla transformation. This is almost identical to the Doctor Doom event, which allowed players to transform into the Marvel villain by interacting with a cauldron on the floating island.
While Epic Games may announce a Godzilla live event later this season, it’s unlikely to happen. With the season ending on February 21, the game developer will probably focus on wrapping it up and teasing the next one. Due to this, there is a small chance that we will get a live event on the last day of Chapter 6 – Season 1.
