Stardew Valley creator Eric 'ConcernedApe' Barone has revealed that he is keen to see the game's characters crossover into Fortnite.
The revelation was spotted during a conversation on Discord, shared on social media by @Panedwards_YT, and relayed by our friends over at Eurogamer.
In the exchange, Barone was specifically asked whether he'd be willing to do a crossover with Fortnite, to which he replied "Yeah I've been trying to, I want Pam in Fortnite, I'm open to doing a collab".
He then clarified that the crossover doesn't have to be Pam (the alcoholic bus driver), and that he's open to seeing characters like Abigail and Sebastian make the jump, along with a few other choice suggestions.
Granted, we don't personally share in Barone's excitement with this, but a collab such as this would no doubt shine a light on Stardew Valley and showcase the game to even more potential players. And for that, we support the idea.
Barone recently pledged to never charge money for additional content or DLC for his games. Indeed, Stardew Valley continues to receive free updates to this day, and is showing no sign of slowing down.

Fortnite x Godfather. It's inevitable now.
...I didn't realize I wanted Pam Stardew Valley in Fortnite until just this minute. That would be hilarious and incredible, I love it.
I mean, Pam would certainly make the most sense.
Pam should be the bus driver.
Pam with the battle bus and a beer boost.
How about a crossover between the latest update of the game and the Nintendo Switch
Pam would totally drive the Battle Bus... into the ground. Because she's drunk.
I never played Fortnite, so I don't care. But I understand from a marketing standpoint that it would be help Fortnite to sell a few more copies.
I dont hate it. Would be pretty funny to see, especially if we get Abigail with a rock munching emote. It would also likely give Stardew a shot in the arm, community wise.
Fortnite collabs are basically the modern gaming equivalent of a small band opening for a juggernaut band like Motley Crue, Rush, etc.
I think Fortnite crossing over with more indie stuff regardless would be amazing!
I absolutely love that you just straight up called Pam "alcoholic bus driver." It's 100% true, it just tickled me to see it put so baldly like that. XD
I think this is the first Stardew thing I don't want. Nothing particular against Stardew Valley, but I'd like for every indie game to stop crossing over with things! It's just lost its lustre.
I'd love to see a Stardew Valley x Fortnite crossover and even more so if Pam were part of it as that would be absolutely hilarious!
