Rumors of a Fortnite x Devil May Cry collaboration are heating up, with several leakers suggesting an imminent announcement. While Fortnite leaks are common, and not all pan out, the persistence of this particular rumor, coupled with corroboration from multiple sources, is generating significant buzz.
The potential crossover follows years of fan speculation. Given Fortnite's past collaborations with Capcom (including Resident Evil), a Devil May Cry partnership seems increasingly plausible. Leakers ShiinaBR, Loolo_WRLD, and Wensoing have all pointed towards a likely near-future release, with Wensoing noting that XboxEra's Nick Baker initially mentioned the rumor in 2023. The consistent reiteration from multiple insiders lends credence to the claim.
Timing and Character Speculation:
The sheer volume of anticipated content in Fortnite's upcoming weeks leads some to believe the Devil May Cry collab might launch after Chapter 6 Season 1 concludes. While the delay in confirmation has raised some skepticism, Nick Baker's past accuracy regarding the Doom and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collaborations bolsters confidence in this leak.
The most likely candidates for inclusion are the iconic Dante and Vergil. However, the recent Cyberpunk 2077 collaboration, which unexpectedly featured Female V, suggests Fortnite's approach to character selection is not always predictable. Following the pattern of offering male and female options, and considering past Capcom collaborations, characters like Lady, Trish, or Nico could also appear. Nero (Devil May Cry 4) and V (Devil May Cry 5) remain other strong contenders.
The resurgence of this leak has ignited anticipation for an official announcement, with fans eagerly awaiting further details.
