and Borderlands have collided as Claptrap, Psycho, Pandora Rift Zones, and more have entered the world of Fortnite in its Fortnite X Mayhem event in celebration of the upcoming release of Borderlands 3.Announced by Fortnite, the Fortnite X Mayhem even runs from today through September 10 and allows players to “shoot and loot your way through the Pandora Rift Zone, take on themed Challenges for free rewards, and pick up the Psycho Bundle from the shop.”

The Pandora Rift Zone now also appears on the map and brings Borderlands’ iconic look to Fortnite. In addition, players in the Rift Zone who do not take damage for a certain time will even begin to generate Shield. There are also other surprises to be found.

This crossover was teased just a few hours ago with an image that featured a Borderlands psycho hidden in it.
