A prominent Fortnite leaker recently suggested that the popular battle royale game might soon feature a crossover with the anime series Kaiju No. 8. This comes at a time when fans are already excited about the addition of Godzilla to the game, scheduled for January 17. To obtain Godzilla's cosmetics, players will need to purchase the Chapter 6 Season 1 battle pass, as these items won't be available in the Item Shop.
Fortnite has just wrapped up its annual Winterfest event and introduced its first major update for 2025. This update brought new cosmetics and several gameplay enhancements. For instance, players can now use instruments from Fortnite Festival as back blings and pickaxes. Additionally, instruments that were previously exclusive to the battle royale mode can now be utilized within the music-driven Fortnite Festival. Epic Games also launched a local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival, providing a fresh way for players to engage with the game. Amidst these updates, the community is buzzing with rumors about upcoming features and potential crossovers.
In a recent Twitter post, the well-known leaker HYPEX hinted at a possible collaboration between Fortnite and the anime Kaiju No. 8. The story of Kaiju No. 8 revolves around Kafka Hibino, a young man who gains the ability to transform into a kaiju after ingesting a parasitic creature. His life becomes even more complex as he joins an organization tasked with eliminating these monsters. Originally a manga, Kaiju No. 8 was adapted into an anime in 2024, with a second season slated for 2025. If these leaks hold true, Kaiju No. 8 will join other iconic anime like Dragon Ball Z in Fortnite.
Fortnite Leaker Claims a Crossover With Kaiju No. 8 Is Happening
In addition to the Kaiju No. 8 rumors, there are whispers that Demon Slayer might also be coming to Fortnite. While both anime crossovers are expected soon, details on what players might experience remain scarce. Many fans speculate that new cosmetics related to these series could be added to the Item Shop, and some hope to see characters from both franchises featured on the game map.
Furthermore, leakers have hinted at the possibility of more MonsterVerse characters joining Godzilla in Fortnite. This could mean players will soon have the chance to acquire cosmetics for King Kong and Mechagodzilla. With such a promising lineup of new content, the Fortnite community is eagerly anticipating what Epic Games has in store for the rest of 2025.
