In a groundbreaking move, Epic Games has just announced a thrilling collaboration between the ever-popular game Fortnite and the sensational anime and manga series, Kaiju No. 8. This partnership introduces an exciting array of cosmetic items that fans can scoop up from the Fortnite Item Shop until February 1.

What Makes This Collaboration So Special?

Fortnite has built a reputation as the ultimate destination for pop-culture crossovers, combining elements from films, games, cartoons, and now anime. With previous collaborations featuring characters from Dragon Ball, Avatar, and Family Guy, the addition of Kaiju No. 8 expands its crossover potential even further, much to the delight of fans.

Kaiju No. 8, created by Naoya Matsumoto, centers on Kafka Hibino - a seemingly ordinary guy who gains the extraordinary ability to transform into a powerful Kaiju. Driven by a lifelong ambition, he joins the Defense Force to combat the colossal monsters threatening Japan. This intriguing premise has captivated audiences, making the partnership with Fortnite seem like a natural fit.

Details on the Kaiju No. 8 Bundle

The Kaiju No. 8 bundle is not just a simple addition to the Fortnite universe; it’s an immersive experience. Each character skin is meticulously crafted to reflect the unique attributes and gear of the Third Division members. Kafka’s broken Kaiju mask back bling adds a special touch, while Kikoru and Reno's back bling echoes their gear bags, with Reno's even showcasing glowing green vials of ice ammunition.

Players will also have access to pickaxes inspired by each character’s specialties—Kikoru’s huge battleaxe takes center stage. Meanwhile, players can channel Kafka's Kaiju form and draw on Reno's icy finesse with complementary pickaxe designs. The bundle includes an exclusive emote that features the spirit of Kaiju No. 8 hovering over the player, along with a weapon wrap imbued with the series’ iconic skin pattern.
