It looks like Fortnite fans might be in for an epic showdown as leaks suggest a crossover with the popular anime series Kaiju No. 8 could be on the horizon. Considering the massive popularity of Kaiju No. 8, this collaboration seems like a no-brainer. And that’s not all—rumors also hint that Demon Slayer might make its way into the Fortnite universe soon.
Recently, a noted Fortnite leaker shared that Epic Games might be planning to feature characters from Kaiju No. 8 in its battle royale landscape. Monster enthusiasts already have something to get excited about with Godzilla joining Fortnite on January 17. But players eager to embody this legendary beast will need to grab the battle pass for Chapter 6, Season 1, since his items won’t be in the Item Shop.
The gaming world of Fortnite has been buzzing with excitement as they wrapped up their Winterfest festivities and rolled out a significant update for 2025. This update wasn’t just about new cosmetics; it brought some intriguing tweaks too. Players now have the option to accessorize with instruments from the Fortnite Festival, using them as back blings and pickaxes. These instruments, once exclusive to the battle royale mode, can now be enjoyed in the music-themed segment of the game. Plus, the new local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival adds a refreshing way to dive into the game, all amid whispers of upcoming features and crossovers.
HYPEX, a respected voice among Fortnite leakers, recently hinted on Twitter that Kaiju No. 8 is set to collaborate with Fortnite. The anime centers around Kafka Hibino, who gains the power to transform into a kaiju after an odd encounter with a parasitic creature. His journey grows more complicated as he becomes involved with an organization determined to hunt these creatures. Starting as a manga, Kaiju No. 8 transitioned to anime in 2024 and is expected to delight fans with a second season in 2025. Should these rumors bear fruit, Kaiju No. 8 would join the likes of Dragon Ball Z in Fortnite’s anime crossover portfolio.
Adding to the speculation, various insiders suggest that Demon Slayer could also make an entrance into Fortnite. As these anime collaborations gain steam, details on what players might discover remain under wraps. While many anticipate seeing a fresh array of cosmetics in the Item Shop, some hope these celebrated characters will be playably woven into the map.
Meanwhile, chatter about more MonsterVerse icons joining Fortnite builds excitement. If these whispers hold water, fans might soon grab King Kong and Mechagodzilla cosmetics. With such enticing content potentially on the way, Fortnite gamers are eager to see Epic Games’ plans for the rest of the year unfold.
