One of the biggest Fortnite leaks this week has been a new anime collaboration, coming during Chapter 6 of the game. Fortnite X Demon Slayer has the potential to be one of the most exciting anime collabs we’ve ever seen. According to some recent Fortnite leaks, this could be one of our next major crossovers.
Every season brings new Fortnite collabs. Even the current Chapter 2 throwback included numerous rapper collabs. However, some crossovers go a bit harder than others. Some collabs go past just skins and get items in game and more. Demon Slayer definitely has the potential to be one of these bigger collabs. With the content leaked so far or Chapter 6 Season 1, it would definitely be a great fit. This is what we know so far:

Fortnite X Demon Slayer Leaks
Over the next few weeks, we’re going to be moving from Fortnite Remix into Chapter 6. The leaks for this change so far have indicated we’re getting a Japanese themed map and seasons, Samurai swords, skins, and more recently Oni masks might be making an appearance. With demons on the map and traditional combat like swords, another anime collab looks likely for the event pass next season. Leakers have said Fortnite X Demon Slayer might be coming.
This would be a perfect fit for the next event pass. These bigger collabs tend to get items in-game, and Demon Slayer styled items would make a perfect fit with the other leaked content. At the moment, the possibility of Fortnite X Demon Slayer is all that’s been leaked though. So, we don’t know how big of a collab it will be. However, it could be as big as last year’s Jjutsu Kaisen Fortnite collab.
Epic has an ongoing relationship with Shonen Jump publishers Shueisha, so collabs like this with one of their properties aren’t too rare. The past anime collabs in this vein were all pretty big events in-game. Hopefully, Fortnite X Demon Slayer is a bigger one, since this has the potential be one of the most exciting collabs.
