Epic Games confirms Fortnite x Five Nights at Freddy’s crossover for October 1, 2026

Epic Games has confirmed a Fortnite collaboration with Five Nights at Freddy’s that will arrive as part of Fortnitemares 2026 on October 1, 2026. A newly released trailer accompanying the announcement shows several iconic characters, exclusive cosmetics and a horror-themed in-game experience.

After extensive rumors and leaks the crossover was officially revealed by Epic Games, following teases since the start of the Halloween season. The trailer features four legendary animatronics and outlines both cosmetic drops and gameplay elements tied to the franchise. A promotional message in the rollout read: "IT’S ME! See you October 1 @fnaf_scottgames pic.twitter.com/jrRlt4Zrq1."

The confirmed skins named in the announcement are Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie the Bunny, Chica the Chicken, and Foxy the Pirate Fox, each featuring a Withered alternate style. The trailer pairs those outfits with animated animatronic representations, presenting them as part of the crossover roster. The announcement materials identify those characters as central to the event’s cosmetic offerings.

Trailer and announcement materials listed additional cosmetics and audio cues, including "Freddy Kicks & Backbling," "Chica & Bonnie Backblings," and "Different Instruments Cosmetics." The rollout also noted that "Unknown Emotes were teased" and referenced "FNAF1 Song (by Living Tombstone) was…" as part of the teaser content. Those items were presented alongside the confirmed outfits in the promotional material.

Gameplay elements from Five Nights at Freddy’s are included in the crossover and the in-game environment will change to reflect the franchise setting. The under-construction location on the Island will be transformed into Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. Within that location, the trailer shows players interacting with security cameras, moving through creepy interiors, experiencing jump scares and encountering roaming animatronics.
