How does Peter Griffin arrive in Fortnite?

In the blog post, the dev team provided a short clip explaining how Peter Griffin ends up in the popular Battle Royale title. The video shows him failing at a Meowscles Physical, with the muscular cat offering both "How to Get Swole in 30 Days" and "How to Get Swole in 1 Hour" books.

Peter Griffin denies both options, finally settling on drinking a liquid called "Slurp Juice" that had expired in 2021. He is instantly transformed and has a Dwayne Johnson-esque figure. A rift appears in the room, and Peter dashes forward.

Peter starts falling from the sky towards the Fortnite island before hitching a ride on a helicopter. The clip ends with the character looking at the ground beneath.
