Summary

- Godzilla is now playable in the Fortnite Battle Royale with various abilities.
- Gameplay as Godzilla is thrilling, with unique moves and a focus on fun, making it a blast for gamers.
From the sounds of it, players are really enjoying the Fortnite x Godzilla collaboration. This season of Fortnite has kept the amount of powerful event-based weapons relatively slim, seemingly in response to some of the backlash that other events like the recent Avengers season received. Although many gamers are not opposed to the fun of powerful abilities in Fortnite, making sure they're balanced could help keep the experience from getting old too quickly. So far, players are loving the Godzilla event and its blend of challenge and fun.
Godzilla had been rumored for a Fortnite collaboration for a long time, and players are finally getting the chance to drop into Battle Royale and play rounds with the iconic character now that the event is active. In addition to Godzilla's presence as a playable event character during Battle Royale matches, fans can also grab Godzilla skins, embracing all aspects of the collab.
Fortnite: How to Get Godzilla
The King of the Monsters himself, Godzilla, stomps his way into Fortnite Battle Royale and here's exactly how players can get him in their lockers.
Players on Reddit are starting to share videos of their experiences playing as and against Godzilla in Fortnite now that the character has dropped, and the consensus so far is that it's a blast. PixelThatsMeXD shared footage of them running around the map while Godzilla is active, showing the way the terrain shakes in response to Godzilla's movement and how minuscule other players are made to feel in comparison. Even when hiding behind surfaces, Godzilla can be seen looming in the background. It looks like Fortnite's developers went out of their way to make experiencing Godzilla feel accurate to the movies.
Fortnite Players Are Loving Godzilla
Other players like Reddit user xyz_x shared footage of their gameplay as Godzilla, rampaging across the map and racking up eliminations while other Fortnite players tried to find the right weapons to take Godzilla down. Godzilla has three main moves while the player has transformed into the character. Roar reveals the locations of other players, Stomp is a slow but powerful melee option that can also destroy buildings, and Atomic Breath has players firing off a powerful blast that can take out nearly anyone it comes into contact with. A fearsome toolkit like this appears to make the task of earning the transformation worth it to many fans.
Players like Jabroni5092 have pointed out the ways the Godzilla encounter appears to focus on just making the experience fun for everyone involved. If other players manage to defeat whoever is transformed into Godzilla, the change reverts, but the defeated player stays alive. This makes playing as Godzilla a less high-stakes event than previous Fortnite power-ups, allowing gamers to enjoy feeling what it's like to take Godzilla out for a spin without forcing them to focus on what strategies to apply in the situation. All of the aspects surrounding Godzilla's gameplay seem to be prioritizing the fun of this collaboration.
