The Simpsons Just Had A Bananas Fortnite Couch Gag, And Poor Peely Didn’t Fare Well

The Battle Bus dropped off Peely, Jonesy, Meowscles, and a couple of other Fortnite characters on to The Simpsons for the long-running show’s opening couch gag. The crossover starts harmless enough. But then, things go awry for the Fortnite clan–especially the cute-looking banana.

Peely slips trying to run away from the Simpsons, who pull out weapons to get the Fortnite characters to leave their couch. That misstep leads to a terrible fate for poor Peely. The Simpsons turn the character into a banana split, bringing a horrifying new meaning to Fortnite skin. The official Simpsons account on X shared a clip of the opening sequence from last night, November 2.

The crossover is a reciprocation of Fortnite’s recently launched Simpsons season. This is a huge collaboration that has replaced the game’s normal island with a Springfield-inspired map that’s cel-shadded and features locations like Moe’s Tavern as well as the Qwik-E-Mart. There’s even a Simpsons-specific Battle Pass. Players can earn skins based on Homer, Marge, and even Flounders.

The start of The Simpsons season in Fortnite has seen a spike in player counts, as spotlighted by Shiina on X. The battle-royale game almost hit 2.7 million concurrent players, per Fortnite.gg. To put that number in perspective, that would put Fortnite at No. 2 all time for Steam concurrents–though the big caveat here is Fortnite is available across PC, consoles, and mobile devices. The player count also comes nowhere close to Fortnite’s all-time recorded high, which was over 14 million concurrent players roughly a year ago.

Looking ahead, Fortnite dataminers believe they’ve found evidence pointing to future collaborations with SpongeBob SquarePants and Harry Potter.
