A prominent Fortnite leaker has recently hinted that the battle royale game could soon collaborate with the anime series Kaiju No. 8. This news comes as a treat for fans of giant monsters, especially with Godzilla set to make his debut in Fortnite on January 17. To unlock Godzilla's cosmetics, players must purchase the battle pass for Chapter 6 Season 1, as these items will not be available in the Item Shop.
Following the conclusion of Fortnite's annual Winterfest event and the release of its first major update for 2025, Epic Games has introduced several new features. Among these are the ability to use instruments from Fortnite Festival as back blings and pickaxes, and the expansion of some battle royale-exclusive instruments to the music-driven mode. Additionally, Epic Games has launched a local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival, enhancing the gaming experience. Alongside these updates, rumors about potential future crossovers have been circulating.
In a recent Twitter post, the well-known leaker HYPEX suggested that Epic Games might be planning a collaboration with Kaiju No. 8. The series follows Kafka Hibino, who gains the ability to transform into a kaiju after ingesting a parasitic creature. As a member of an organization tasked with eliminating these monsters, Kafka's life becomes increasingly complex. Originally a manga, Kaiju No. 8 was adapted into an anime in 2024, with a second season slated for 2025. If the leaks are accurate, 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 Kaiju No. 8, leaks have also pointed to a possible collaboration with Demon Slayer. While details about what players can expect from these crossovers are scarce, fans speculate that new cosmetics related to both anime series could soon appear in the Item Shop. Some enthusiasts are also hopeful for in-game representations of characters from both franchises on the map.
Moreover, leakers have hinted at the addition of more MonsterVerse characters to Fortnite, including King Kong and Mechagodzilla, to complement Godzilla's arrival. With these exciting prospects on the horizon, the Fortnite community is eagerly anticipating what Epic Games has in store for the remainder of 2025.
