“This will be a rare occasion”: Fortnite community pushes hard for KPop Demon Hunters skins despite official confirmation

A major Fortnite crossover featuring Netflix’s hit animated musical KPop Demon Hunters is in the works at present, according to many prominent Fortnite scoopers. The news leak suggests that the crossover will take place in the current season of the online game, specifically Chapter 6, Season 4. It is expected to incorporate characters and thematic content from the June 2025 movie into Epic Games' well-known battle royale game.

Although Epic has not yet announced the event, gamers look forward to exclusive cosmetics, such as skins of the Huntr/x girl-band group and other demon-hunting components influenced by the K-pop meets mythology style of the film. Since Fortnite has a lengthy history of successful tie-ins, this musical-fantasy crossover is a much-anticipated in-game celebration of the movie's global popularity.

KPop Demon Hunters follows Huntr/x, a K-pop girl group of three women — Rumi, Mira, and Zoey — who lead double lives as demon hunters. These guardians defend humanity against demons under the command of the their king Gwi-Ma, by using their music to maintain a mystical barrier known as the Honmoon. When a demon named Jinu forms a competing demon boy band, the Saja Boys, they begin siphoning off Huntr/x’s fans to weaken the Honmoon.

Meanwhile, Rumi is hiding a secret: she is half-demon and is gradually losing her voice. As the threat escalates, Rumi must choose between hiding her identity or embracing her heritage.

The confrontation climaxes at a major idol awards show, where Huntr/x confronts the Saja Boys. Self-acceptance is embraced, and Gwi-Ma’s plan is thwarted — culminating in Huntr/x saving their fans and restoring the Honmoon.
