As part of Fortnite's upcoming crossover with The Simpsons, the iconic Fox animated series will be receiving a special television episode centered around the collaboration. The Epic Games battle royale has not been shy about teasing its next big collaboration, with a mini-season centered around The Simpsons set to launch following the conclusion of Chapter 6 Season 4. Fortnite has already begun to tease the crossover with The Simpsons in the conclusion of Fortnitemares, with fans able to find Bart's treehouse within the in-game map. Now, the TV series is set to feature its own special collaboration.

Fortnite has often teamed up with popular animated series for some of its more notable collaborations, especially with Fox's "Animation Domination" block. The battle royale made waves when it teamed up with Family Guy to add a buff version of Peter Griffin, with Family Guy even creating an animated short for the crossover. Fortnite would later introduce more shows from the Fox lineup to the game as skins, including skins based on Bob's Burgers and King of the Hill. Fortnite is now kicking off arguably its biggest Fox crossover with a special episode.
