Summary

  • A leaker has revealed that a Demon Slayer collaboration is potentially coming to Fortnite.
  • Demon Slayer's traditional Japanese themes could align with Fortnite's upcoming season.
  • Fortnite Chapter 6 is expected to arrive in December.

A prominent Fortnite leaker has announced that a collaboration with the popular anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba could be coming to the game soon. Demon Slayer is about a boy who sets out to become a demon slayer after his family is slaughtered, and his sister is transformed into a demon. The anime is based on a manga of the same name created by Koyoharu Gotouge. This would be one of many anime collaborations for Fortnite, as the battle royale has already orchestrated crossovers with Dragon Ball Super, Attack on Titan, Jujutsu Kaisen, My Hero Academia, and more.

Collaborations have become a staple for Fortnite. The game is currently in the middle of a short season titled Chapter 2 Remix and features crossovers with Snoop Dogg, Ice Spice, Eminem, and the late artist Juice WRLD. Players will even have the opportunity to claim free Juice WRLD cosmetics before the end of November. The current season is a celebration of everything from Fortnite's second chapter. Old locations have returned, items and weapons have been unvaulted, and the miniature battle pass features remixes of iconic characters from Chapter 2. This season is a bridge between the end of Chapter 5 and the upcoming release of Chapter 6 in December.

ShiinaBR revealed on Twitter that a collaboration with the iconic anime Demon Slayer could be coming to Fortnite in the near future. The leaker was unable to provide specifics, but it's reasonable to expect that this crossover will likely see a number of new skins come to the battle royale. Fans have been treated to new skins with all of the game's previous anime partnerships. This news comes amid a flurry of leaks involving potential collaborations, including a rumor that more Into the Spider-Verse skins are on the way.

Demon Slayer Could Pair Well With Fortnite's Upcoming Chapter 6

Fortnite has been forging a lot of partnerships lately, so the announcement of a collaboration with Demon Slayer makes sense. The setting of the game's upcoming season is rumored to feature traditional Japanese themes, even going so far as to bring Demon and Oni masks into Fortnite. It seems possible that Demon Slayer characters could make their debut during the newest season. Fans may even see a special item or weapon inspired by the popular anime.

Epic Games seems to shake things up the most with the introduction of new chapters. This is when players are typically introduced to new mechanics and a whole new map. This time, fans are seeing even more changes than usual. Epic Games recently announced that it will be increasing the price of Fortnite's battle pass for the first time and altering its Fortnite Crew subscription. With all of the changes and rumors swirling around the game's newest season, especially a number of new collaborations, it seems like fans have a lot to look forward to.
