Is Hasbulla coming to Fortnite? While having this social media sensation in-game would be rather amusing, there's nothing to officially confirm his arrival in the metaverse. While that might be sad news for a few players, there's nothing that can be done about it.
Nevertheless, that hasn't stopped netizens from asking the same question over and over again. That said, why is the search term, "Is Hasbulla coming to Fortnite?" trending every now and then? Well, as it turns out, there is a proper reason for the same, but it's hilarious, to say the least.
The weird trend behind "Hasbulla coming to Fortnite?" explored
While fans have been asking for a collaboration with Hasbulla for a long time, Epic Games has been turning a deaf ear towards the same. Given how they carefully pick and choose collaborations that will undoubtedly generate revenue, they can't put everyone in-game on a whim.

For this reason, fans have taken things into their own hands and have decided to put Hasbulla into the game, come hell or high water. While it may not be official, something is better than nothing.
That said, the trend began when a fan account on Twitter with over 942,000 followers posted an image of Hasbulla with the caption, "They’re putting Hasbulla in Fortnite." Although it was a joke, it was enough to give rise to the trend on social media.
Shortly after this occurred, netizens rallied to the fan account on Twitter and began sharing the tweet widely. Thus far, the picture has been retweeted over 2,400 times and the number is steadily growing. Aside from the fan account, several users have even been sharing images independently to keep the trend going.
With netizens able to create images of Hasbulla in Fortnite using a simple AI tool, more are jumping on the bandwagon. By the looks of it, over the weekend, this bizarre trend will continue to grow and perhaps stay relevant even after Chapter 4 begins.
Will Hasbulla ever come to Fortnite?
As mentioned, despite the trending search term "Hasbulla coming to Fortnite" showing up on social media, a collaboration with him is an unlikely scenario.
Perhaps Epic Games can take inspiration from the "How Sweet!" emote, which is inspired by CZN Burak's viral videos where he does his signature smile. However, it all depends on whether or not the developers want to do it.
Even if Epic Games wants to add Hasbulla in-game in some way, the collaboration will not happen unless he's willing to do so. Such being the case, for the time being, he will not be added to the game. Furthermore, based on leaks that have been made public thus far, there is nothing in the works as of now,
With Chapter 4 less than a week away, the developers are busy fine-tuning things. There's no time to work on new collaborations at the moment, with this being the start of the next major stage of the storyline.
