Released today, "Sugar High" follows Homer as he continues to "improve" reality using an all-powerful Zero Point shard. The short begins with Homer being given some useful exposition from resident [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/fortnite']The Simpsons[/URL] scientist Professor Frink, until Homer turns the scientist into new version of Fortnite banana Peely (soon to be available as a skin to battle pass holders). As Homer causes a rain of giant donuts to fall down from the sky — something players will experience this coming week in-game — Springfield's residents turn against Homer. The second half of the short then seemingly sets up [I]next [/I]week's Fortnite theme, where Homer manages to clone himself and somehow create a form of zombie army. Fortnite plans to release a further two Simpsons shorts which will be available online or via Disney+ across the latter half of its Springfield mini-season, which is due to culminate in a big in-game live event on November 29. Reaction to the crossover has been positive from fans, and [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/epic-games-celebrates-fortnite-player-spike-as-the-simpsons-season-launches']developer Epic Games has celebrated a notable uptick in players[/URL] when compared to the game's previous battle royale season. Fans of Fortnite's in-game story have also had cause for celebration, as [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/fortnite-chapter-seven-teases-kill-bill-crossover-points-to-usa-setting']repeated teases have signalled the imminent return of The Seven[/URL] — the game's much-missed band of heroes who once drove Fortnite's storyline forwards, and who were played by a starry cast that included Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Brie Larsen, Joel McHale and Rahul Kohli. While the characters are not expected to return before the end of the current The Simpsons season, Fortnite fan and loremaster [URL='https://x.com/Rezztro/status/1987890648943398979']Rezztro[/URL] has pointed out that today's short film references the "Omniverse" — in Fortnite lore, essentially the game's term for its multiverse of multiverses. It's a term introduced in previous Fortnite comics starring The Seven, and last mentioned by Dwayne Johnson's in-game character The Foundation back in 2022.
