Fortnite Confirms Kingdom Hearts Collaboration This Week

Epic Games has confirmed that characters from the Kingdom Hearts franchise will arrive in Fortnite this week, marking a significant crossover for the popular battle royale game. The collaboration, part of Fortnite's Chapter 7 Season 4: Override, will introduce Sora, the series' protagonist, along with other key characters. The announcement was made through official Fortnite social media channels, accompanied by a teaser trailer. The trailer shows Sora's iconic Keyblade, with its traditional Mickey Mouse keychain charm replaced by a Fortnite Supply Llama. While the exact release date and time have not been officially specified, the collaboration is expected to begin on September 17, 2026, aligning with a scheduled game update. Alongside Sora, character quotes posted by Epic Games suggest that Riku, Kairi, and Roxas will also be available as skins. The quotes include lines attributed to each character, such as Riku's "If the world is made of light and darkness, we'll be the darkness" and Roxas's "Looks like my summer vacation is over." This indicates a broader collaboration than initially anticipated, with four characters potentially joining the game.
