Fortnite's Potential Kaiju No. 8 Crossover: Leaks Suggest a Monster Mashup
Recent leaks suggest a thrilling crossover between the popular battle royale game Fortnite and the hit anime series, Kaiju No. 8. Given Kaiju No. 8's current global popularity, this collaboration seems highly plausible. Adding to the excitement, rumors also point towards a potential Demon Slayer crossover.
The buzz began with a prominent Fortnite leaker's claim. This follows the upcoming arrival of Godzilla on January 17th, obtainable via the Chapter 6 Season 1 battle pass. This isn't the only exciting news; Fortnite recently concluded its Winterfest event and launched its first major 2025 update. This update introduced new cosmetics and gameplay changes, including the ability to use Fortnite Festival instruments as back blings and pickaxes, expanding their use beyond the battle royale mode. A new local co-op mode for Fortnite Festival has also been added.
These updates coincide with a flurry of speculation about future features and crossovers. A well-known leaker, HYPEX, tweeted about a possible Kaiju No. 8 collaboration. For those unfamiliar, Kaiju No. 8 follows Kafka Hibino, a young man who gains kaiju-transforming abilities after an unusual encounter. The series, initially a manga, received an anime adaptation in 2024, with a second season slated for 2025. A Kaiju No. 8 crossover would place it alongside other popular anime franchises like Dragon Ball Z in Fortnite.
Fortnite Rumored to Feature Kaiju No. 8 and Demon Slayer Crossovers
Beyond Kaiju No. 8, multiple sources suggest a Demon Slayer crossover is also on the cards. While both collaborations remain unconfirmed, speculation is rife. Many fans anticipate new cosmetics in the Item Shop, while others hope to see characters from both anime integrated into the game's map.
Further leaks hint at additional MonsterVerse characters joining Godzilla, potentially including King Kong and Mechagodzilla. With this wave of new content on the horizon, the Fortnite community eagerly awaits Epic Games' next moves in 2025.
