However, as with most releases these days, there\u2019s a little more to the update than meets the eye. As it turns out, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FNBRintel\/status\/1540000049463181312\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"FNBRintel\">FNBRintel<\/a> spotted a <strong>singular clue<\/strong> in the updated game\u2019s code. As told by their recent Twitter post:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018There&#8217;s currently an encrypted set called &#8220;WaffleWarrior&#8221; and in the series, the character &#8220;Eleven&#8221; only eats waffles. Could be a <strong>stretch <\/strong>but if it is a Stranger Things collab we will see the skins on July 1st with S4 VOL 2!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Theory: Stranger Things Collab No. 2 ?<br><br>There&#39;s currently an encrypted set called &quot;WaffleWarrior&quot; and in the series the character &quot;Eleven&quot; only eats waffles. Could be a stretch but if it is a Stranger Things collab we will see the skins on July 1st with S4 VOL 2! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Fortnite?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Fortnite<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/KZKf1z5SCE\">pic.twitter.com\/KZKf1z5SCE<\/a><\/p>&mdash; FNBRintel (@FNBRintel) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FNBRintel\/status\/1540000049463181312?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 23, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As they added, this could be a little bit of a stretch, however, they are completely correct when they highlight waffles as Eleven\u2019s favorite food. This is a character trait that even the show has highlighted by having it be one of the<strong> character\u2019s quirks since season 1<\/strong>. On the other hand, there\u2019s already a character in Fortnite named Mancake whose entire face is made of pancakes. It could stand to reason then that WaffleWarrior may be a clever reference to either him or a new character based on him.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we previously mentioned, the 2019 Fortnite X Stranger Things collaboration didn\u2019t live up to expectations or the hype generated by one of the most popular games on every platform teaming up with one of the <strong>most popular shows on Netflix<\/strong>. Epic added only two skins &#8211; a Demogorgon and a strange-looking Hopper. Therefore, there\u2019s definitely a demand for a proper collaboration.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">None of this is set in stone though. We\u2019ll have to wait and see if any other clues drop in the coming updates, media releases, or in-game assets. It would be cool to have a collab like that drop soon though, given that <strong>Stranger Things season four is dropping this Friday<\/strong>. In the meantime, there\u2019s a rumor that Fortnite is teaming up with Dead by Daylight!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Fortnite and Dead by Daylight collaboration\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/f_auto,t_article_cover_xl\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/06\/Fortnite-and-Dead-by-Daylight-be-teaming-up.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Fortnite and Dead by Daylight collaboration<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/fortnite.en.softonic.com\/articles\/fortnite-dead-by-daylight-collaboration\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">READ MORE<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/fortnite.en.softonic.com\/articles\/fortnite-dead-by-daylight-collaboration\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite has become somewhat synonymous with collabs.
