Summary
- Leaks suggest an upcoming Fortnite crossover with Kaiju No. 8.
- This popular anime's inclusion makes sense given its widespread appeal.
- Demon Slayer is also rumored to be joining the Fortnite roster.
A prominent Fortnite leaker recently hinted at a potential crossover between the battle royale game and the popular anime, Kaiju No. 8. This news follows the upcoming arrival of Godzilla on January 17th, available via the Chapter 6 Season 1 Battle Pass. Godzilla's cosmetics won't be in the Item Shop.
Fortnite's recent Winterfest event and the first major 2025 update brought new cosmetics and gameplay changes. Players can now use instruments from Fortnite Festival as back blings and pickaxes, and some previously battle royale-exclusive instruments are now usable in the music mode. A new local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival has also been added. These updates coincide with numerous rumors of future features and crossovers.
In a recent Twitter post, the well-known leaker HYPEX suggested a collaboration between Fortnite and Kaiju No. 8. Kaiju No. 8, which started as a manga and received an anime adaptation in 2024 (with a second season planned for 2025), follows Kafka Hibino, a young man who gains kaiju-transforming abilities after an unusual encounter. He joins an organization dedicated to eliminating monsters. If the leaks are accurate, Kaiju No. 8 would join other anime like Dragon Ball Z in Fortnite.
Fortnite Leaker Claims a Crossover With Kaiju No. 8 Is Happening
Beyond Kaiju No. 8, multiple leakers claim Demon Slayer might also be coming to Fortnite. While both anime crossovers are rumored to be imminent, details remain scarce. Many fans anticipate new cosmetics in the Item Shop, while others hope to see characters from both franchises represented on the game map.
Recent leaks also suggest more MonsterVerse characters, potentially including King Kong and Mechagodzilla, could join Godzilla in Fortnite. With a wealth of new content on the horizon, players eagerly await Epic Games' plans for the rest of 2025.
