Fortnitemares 2025 kicks off with Demon Hunters, Huggy Wuggy teaser

Fortnitemares 2025 is under way, bringing a broad slate of horror-themed crossovers and new cosmetics to Fortnite. Epic Games opened the seasonal event on October 2 with a major KPop Demon Hunters collaboration, and a separate teaser from Mob Entertainment confirmed that Huggy Wuggy from Poppy Playtime will join the game on October 23, 2025. Developers and dataminers say the lineup also includes a range of iconic horror characters and returning seasonal content.

Epic’s October 2 drop centered on the KPop Demon Hunters collaboration, which introduces three character skins — Zoey, Rumi, and Mira — along with matching back blings, pickaxes and emotes.
