Fortnite is teaming up with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles again for an event. Although Fortnite has collaborated with many brands, fans always want more crossovers. In August, leaks hinted at TMNT coming to Fortnite with manhole covers appearing on the map. The hype faded due to no news, but gamers stayed hopeful. Eventually, TMNT skins, including Michelangelo, Raphael, Donatello, Leonardo, and April O’Neil, were added to the Fortnite Item Shop. A leak on January 24 hinted at Shredder’s arrival in Fortnite soon, part of a Fortnite x TMNT crossover event. Information suggests Shredder will debut with update v28.20, while teasers will vanish with v28.30. Updates drop on Tuesdays, and events launch on Thursdays, typically every two weeks. The TMNT event is expected to start Thursday at 9 AM ET, possibly on February 8 or 15.
When Is Shredder Coming to Fortnite?
In a recent interview, a Fortnite insider shared details about the upcoming TMNT crossover event, stating, “Players can anticipate Shredder’s arrival on February 8 at 9 AM ET through a crossover event in Fortnite. Epic Games often celebrates Valentine’s Day in Fortnite, possibly prompting the TMNT event’s launch on February 8 to avoid overlap. The event is likely to last a few weeks and may include a mini Battle Pass, akin to the Star Wars Find the Force pass.”
Many collaborations introduce limited-time event tabs in Fortnite, offering themed cosmetic items at special prices. Unlike a Battle Pass, these skins often appear later in the Fortnite Item Shop, likely at higher prices. Players who miss the seasonal tab may need to spend more in the shop to acquire these items later.
