Fortnite Rumored to Crossover with Popular Anime Kaiju No. 8
Recent leaks suggest a potential crossover between the wildly 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 anticipation, rumors also circulate about a possible Demon Slayer crossover.
The upcoming Godzilla collaboration, launching January 17th (exclusive to the Chapter 6 Season 1 Battle Pass), has already generated considerable hype among monster-loving players. This follows Fortnite's recent Winterfest event and the first major 2025 update, which included new cosmetics, instrument back blings and pickaxes, and a local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival.
Prominent Fortnite leaker HYPEX fueled the Kaiju No. 8 speculation on Twitter. The anime, based on a popular manga, follows Kafka Hibino, who gains kaiju-transforming abilities after encountering a parasitic creature. His subsequent involvement with a monster-eliminating organization forms the core of the engaging storyline. With Season 2 slated for 2025, a Fortnite crossover would further amplify the anime's reach. If confirmed, Kaiju No. 8 would join other notable anime franchises like Dragon Ball Z in the Fortnite universe.
More Crossovers on the Horizon?
Beyond Kaiju No. 8, multiple sources point towards a potential Demon Slayer crossover. While details remain scarce, many fans anticipate new cosmetics in the Item Shop, and some even hope for map representation of characters from both anime.
Further leaks hint at the addition of more MonsterVerse characters to join Godzilla, potentially including King Kong and Mechagodzilla.
With a flurry of new content and crossovers on the horizon, the Fortnite community eagerly awaits Epic Games' next announcements for 2025.
