Fortnite Rumored to Crossover with Popular Anime Kaiju No. 8
Recent leaks suggest a potential crossover between the hugely popular battle royale game, Fortnite, and the acclaimed anime series, Kaiju No. 8. Given Kaiju No. 8's current global popularity, such a collaboration would be a significant event. Further fueling speculation, leaks also point to a possible Demon Slayer crossover.
The addition of Godzilla to Fortnite on January 17th, accessible via the Chapter 6 Season 1 battle pass, has already generated considerable excitement among monster-enthusiast players. This follows Fortnite's recent Winterfest event and the first major 2025 update, which included new cosmetics, gameplay adjustments, and the introduction of a local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival.
Prominent Fortnite leaker, HYPEX, ignited the Kaiju No. 8 speculation on Twitter. The anime, based on a popular manga, follows Kafka Hibino, who gains kaiju-transforming abilities after an unusual encounter. His subsequent involvement with a monster-eliminating organization forms the core of the compelling narrative. With a second season slated for 2025, the timing of a Fortnite crossover aligns perfectly. If confirmed, Kaiju No. 8 would join other notable anime franchises like Dragon Ball Z in Fortnite's roster of collaborations.
Fortnite's Potential Kaiju No. 8 & Demon Slayer Crossovers
Beyond Kaiju No. 8, multiple sources suggest a Demon Slayer crossover is also in the works. While details remain scarce, many anticipate new cosmetics in the Item Shop, with some hoping for in-game map representation of characters from both anime.
Further leaks hint at the arrival of additional MonsterVerse characters, potentially including King Kong and Mechagodzilla, to join Godzilla in Fortnite. With a wealth of new content on the horizon, the Fortnite community eagerly awaits Epic Games' next announcements for 2025.
