Epic Games has revealed a sneak peek at the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 6 and its battle pass skins. The new season, called “Hunters,” features a Japanese-themed aesthetic with Japanese text in the promotional materials. Notable inclusions for this season are Godzilla and Baymax from Big Hero 6.

Despite some crossovers, the season seems to have a largely original roster of battle pass skins, with at least five original skins. Speculation is high whether Godzilla will feature as an event monster or a shrunken skin. Reportedly, a Demon Slayer crossover is coming later this season, which will introduce various elements from the popular Japanese show, including Demons on the map, Demon Hunter skins, and an actual Demon island.

Fortnite is popular in Japan, and this season may be reaching out to the Asian market while also embracing a cool theme. The aesthetics are impressive, and Epic Games seems to shine when focusing on original skins rather than relying solely on crossovers. All this will be seen in action on Sunday when Fortnite Chapter 6 launches.
Moving away from the previous “Remix” season, this new chapter promises exciting new elements and adventures. Fans are eager to see what else is in store on the map as the season unfolds.

Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1: Hunters will begin on Sunday, December 1, 2024. The new season is scheduled to go live soon after the event, which takes place on November 30, 2024, at 2 pm and 10 pm (repeat telecast) ET. Assuming a server downtime of around eight hours, Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1: Hunters should go live at various times around the world.
Rumors are swirling about an upcoming collaboration between Fortnite and the popular anime series Demon Slayer. Leakers are confident that this highly anticipated crossover is on the horizon, despite the lack of official confirmation from Epic Games. According to Shiina, a credible reporter known for numerous Fortnite leaks, Epic Games is working with the creators of Demon Slayer to bring new content to Fortnite.
If these leaks are accurate, fans can look forward to purchasing outfits themed after the main characters of the anime, such as Tanjiro, Inosuke, Nezuko, and Zenitsu. Potential in-game items might include Tanjiro’s water-breathing sword effects, Nezuko’s bamboo muzzle, Zenitsu’s lightning aura, and Inosuke’s boar mask. The exact release date for the Fortnite and Demon Slayer collaboration remains unknown.
However, leaks suggest that the crossover could debut as early as December 1, coinciding with the launch of Chapter 6, Season 1. While we await official confirmation from Epic Games, the excitement continues to build around the potential Demon Slayer collaboration. If the leaks are true, this crossover could become one of Fortnite’s biggest anime-themed events to date.
