Fortnite Rumored to Crossover with Popular Anime Kaiju No. 8
Recent leaks suggest a potential crossover between the immensely popular battle royale game, Fortnite, and the hit anime series, Kaiju No. 8. Given Kaiju No. 8's current global popularity, such a collaboration would be a logical and exciting move for Epic Games. Adding to the speculation, rumors also point towards a possible Demon Slayer crossover in the near future.
The buzz follows Fortnite's recent Winterfest event conclusion and the release of its first major 2025 update. This update introduced new cosmetics, gameplay adjustments (including the use of Fortnite Festival instruments as back blings and pickaxes), and a local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival. These additions have fueled anticipation for further updates and crossovers.
Prominent Fortnite leaker, HYPEX, ignited the Kaiju No. 8 speculation on Twitter. Kaiju No. 8, which started as a manga and received its anime adaptation in 2024 (with a second season slated for 2025), follows Kafka Hibino's journey after gaining kaiju-transforming abilities. A crossover would place Kaiju No. 8 alongside other popular anime franchises already featured in Fortnite, such as Dragon Ball Z.
More Than Just Kaiju No. 8?
Beyond Kaiju No. 8, several leakers suggest a Demon Slayer crossover is also in the works. While details remain scarce, many fans anticipate new cosmetics in the Item Shop, and some even hope for map representation from both anime series.
Further fueling excitement, leaks hint at the arrival of additional MonsterVerse characters to join Godzilla (available in the Chapter 6 Season 1 battle pass starting January 17th). King Kong and Mechagodzilla cosmetics are reportedly on the way.
With a plethora of potential new content on the horizon, the Fortnite community eagerly awaits Epic Games' announcements for the remainder of 2025.
