The dataminer who leaked the release of the Bleach collab this season has said that Fortnite is working on a Chainsaw Man collaboration. Fortnite has collaborated with many franchises over the past few years, including several anime. There is no doubt that many players are fans of the cell-shaded anime skins in Fortnite, as Epic continues to bring on new collabs and has even created some anime-like cosmetics of their own, such as the Anime Legends Pack. Some of the most well-known anime characters have made their way to Fortnite as skins, such as Naruto, Goku, and One Punch Man.
Players can get anime skins in Fortnite from shows such as Dragon Ball, Naruto, Jujutsu Kaisen, Attack on Titan, One Punch Man, My Hero Academia, and more. The list of anime cosmetics in Fortnite is huge, as each of these franchises features not only characters as skins but also other iconic items as their back blings, gliders, and pickaxes. And fans don’t want it to end here; they want more shows to join the roster of skins available in Fortnite. Some of the most recurrent anime crossover requests are One Piece and Chainsaw Man. While there have been rumors over the years, and fans have never lost hope that it would happen, they are still waiting for these collabs to materialize.
Fortnite Reveals Every Update and Season Launch in 2026
Players can look forward to plenty of patches and updates this year, as Fortnite has revealed its entire release schedule for 2026.
Leaker Teases Chainsaw Man Collab in Fortnite
Thankfully, it seems that they might be in luck, as Chainsaw Man might be coming to Fortnite. SamLeakks has come forward to announce that Fortnite is working on a Chainsaw Man collab. This is just a rumor, and the leaker did not disclose their sources, so players should take this information with a grain of salt. However, SamLeakks is also the leaker who revealed the release of the Bleach skins. In his tweet about the Bleach cosmetic, he said that the collab would take place this season, and not long after, the skins were available for sale in the Item Shop. Therefore, it is safe to say that this is a reliable source, so players might want to start thinking about saving up some V-Bucks in case it becomes a reality.
It is unknown how long it will take for Epic Games to release this potential collaboration. Based on SamLeakss’s wording, it seems that the collab is still in the works and not a finished product. Therefore, it is possible that the items and skins are still nothing but ideas and drafts and that the developers might be discussing which Chainsaw Man cosmetics they’d like to put in Fortnite. This is expected to be a big collaboration, as players have been requesting it for a while now, so it could take some time for it to be ready. If these are Item Shop skins, there will most likely be a tournament a few days prior to their release to allow players to compete for these skins, unlocking them early. This is what has happened with recent major releases, such as Kim Kardashian and Bleach.
Chainsaw Man Has Potential for an Entire Crossover Event in Fortnite
However, it is entirely possible that this will be a much bigger collab. Fortnite has hosted special crossover events, featuring mini-Battle Passes, and Chainsaw Man might get this treatment. This happened in the crossover events with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Wars, and Dragon Ball. If this were the case, then besides cosmetics, players could expect there to be themed Chainsaw Man weapons, NPCs, named locations, and quests. These rumors will keep players’ hopes alive for this collaboration, but for now, there is nothing that they can do besides wait for more news. Leakers will be on top of this as well, so players who are eager to know more should keep an eye out for more information.
