Solo Leveling in Fortnite: Release date speculation and what to expect
Level up wearing Solo Levelling skins, either solo, or with friends.
Fans of Korean monster hunting are set to eat good this week, as by all accounts, we're going to see Solo Leveling in Fortnite, and we’ve got some release date speculation to find out exactly when, as well as what to expect in terms of content. First published in 2016, Solo Leveling has massively grown, with webtoon adaptations, animes and even a live-action series in the works. It’s just as well that we’re getting some Solo Leveling action now, as series producer Sota Furuhashi wants a 3-year hiatus before season 3. They’ve even taken to Reddit to ask fans for help to get season 3 made. It’s likely to happen, however, given just how big of a hit it’s been on Crunchyroll. But, with all that said, let’s see exactly when we can expect Solo Leveling in Fortnite! Solo Leveling in Fortnite release date speculation Solo Leveling skins will come to Fortnite Thursday 19 February 2026, according to leaks. Rumours about the collaboration started to emerge in recent days, but then the official Fortnite account posted a teaser on X (formerly Twitter). View oEmbed on the source website Given that the next Fortnite update is 19 February and Epic Games is teasing Solo Leveling a couple of days beforehand, it’s likely that it will be this date. If any sort of delay happens, or we get an actual confirmation, we will let you know in due time. Solo Leveling in Fortnite: what to expect According to AdiraFNInfo on X, a known Fortnite leaker, the Solo Levelling collaboration will potentially feature Sung Jin-woo, Cha Hae-in, and Igris or Beru skins. Fellow leaker HYPEX shared the findings on X. View oEmbed on the source website Of course, none of this is actually confirmed, and we have yet to see any datamined assets, so this is, as always, to be taken with a pinch of salt. However, HYPEX and AdiraFNInfo rarely miss, and it’s usually a safe bet that what they reveal will likely come to fruition. Once an official announcement is made, we will update this page with all the juicy details!

Fortnite update today (5th February 2026): What changes in the v39.40 patch notes?
Epic Games are The Giver as this update is HOT TO GO!
There’s always something going on in Epic Games’ long-running Battle Royale-cum-metaverse, and as such, we’ll be going over everything in the Fortnite update today (5th February 2026) and what changes in the v39.40 patch notes. Certainly, there is plenty to tide us over until Chapter 7: Season 2, and there will be even more on the way later in February. And if you missed it, Regular Show was added to Fortnite, but the bundle is only available for purchase until 6th February, so act fast! But if you're ready to sink your canine teeth into the side of this update's neck (hint, hint), read on! Fortnite update today (5th February): What changes in the v39.40 patch notes First off, there are some big crossovers in Fortnite v39.40, with the Pink Piny Club coming to the Island and Fortnite Festival with none other than Chappell Roan. Roan gets three skins, two Pink Pony Club-inspired dos that are Red and Pink, and also the Roan of Arc skin, inspired by her performance of Good Luck Babe at the 2024 VMAs. There’s also a new Fortnite Festival lobby that ties in with her Medieval-glam theme. The song Pink Pony Club has been added to the Fortnite Festival Season 13 tracklist, with Good Luck, Babe!, HOT TO GO!, and The Giver returning as well. Later on the 6th of February, as part of Love and legends, we get new HUNTR/X Outfits for Rumi, Zoey and Mira, based on the group's Golden looks. Jinu of the Saja Boys is present too, with an all-new Demon Jinu alt style. There are also a couple of new items, such as the Flowberry Mist Grenade, which hides your location whilst topping up your shields. Other players who venture into the cloud of mist succumb to the effects of low gravity, making it a great defensive tool. The Enforcer and Tactical assault rifle now do more damage, with SMGs also receiving larger ammo capacities and dishing out more hurt, making them a lot more useful. The Sovereign Shotgun and Tactical Pistol also receive a buff to their damage output. There is also the long-leaked Lock-On Assault, which can track enemies, much like the Lock-On Pistol introduced back in Chapter 4: Season 2.

When is the next Fortnite season? Chapter 7 Season 2 release date
Between the Hollywood motif and the South Park event, we're in the midst of one of Fortnite's wildest seasons yet – but when does the next Fortnite season start?

Chapter 7 Season 2 release date Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 is currently scheduled to begin on Wednesday 4th March 2026. This coincides with the end of Season 1, which is set to conclude on the same date with a brand-new live event, which will likely last between 15 and 30 minutes.

Regular Show in Fortnite: Release date and what to expect
One of the most underrated shows around, Regular Show is set for a crossover with Fortnite. Chronicling the bizarro adventures of Mordecai and Rigby, and their equally madcap friends, Regular Show is certainly an unexpected collab, but not an unwelcome one. So, with a Regular Show x Fortnite crossover now confirmed, here's what you need to know about the release date and what to expect. Regular Show in Fortnite release date The Regular Show x Fortnite collaboration will be released on 30th January 2026. While a window of around a week had initially been suggested by leakers, the official date was confirmed by Epic Games in a teaser trailer posted to social media. View oEmbed on the source website The trailer features Mordecai and Rigby yelling for 12 seconds in various locations on Battle Royale Island while the players around them go down. What to expect from Regular Show in Fortnite Epic Games hasn't explicitly confirmed what's coming in the Regular Show update to Fortnite, but thanks to the aforementioned trailer and information from leakers, we have a pretty good idea. Dataminer Blortzen posted a list of cosmetics set to be added to the game via X. The cosmetics in question are: Mordecai Mordecai skin (with LEGO style) Back Bling Pickaxe Skips Skips skin (with LEGO style) Back Bling Fist of Justice Pickaxe Rigby Rigby Sidekick (with I'm Eggscelent Trucker Hat style), and VFX Emote Banner As well as all of this, there will be two Emotes added to the game. The first is Mordecai and Rigby's "Ohhhhhh", while the second is a skipping emote. As for how much this will all cost, we aren't too sure, but we imagine that both skins will be available for 1,500 V-Bucks, while the Rigby Sidekick will cost around 1,200 V-Bucks. Emotes, Back Blings and Pickaxes will all cost between 300-800 V-Bucks, and there will be bundles available for players to purchase the whole package for between 3,000-4,000 V-Bucks.

Kenny Fortnite quests: Full list and how to complete them
The South Park event in Fortnite is still going strong, although players have been stumped by Part Five's new Kenny quests. Fittingly, just as all of Kenny's words are muffled by his enormous hood in the show, Kenny's quests have been muffled too, so it's almost impossible to work out what you're supposed to be doing. The key word there is 'almost', as we've got full translations for you, and it turns out that Kenny's quests aren't too difficult at all. So, without further ado, here's the full list of Kenny quests and how to complete them. Kenny Fortnite quests: Full list and how to complete them There are six total Kenny Quests to complete in Fortnite, each of which has a clue to go along with it. Here is the full list of Kenny Quests, what they mean and how to complete them: Mph mpphmmph – "I'm an angel keeping watch over the city at night." Head to the pylon in the north of Battlewood Boulevard Mmmmpmpph mmhhmph – "In Loving Memory, Kenny McCormick." Use Kenny's Respawn Token to respawn one time Mph mpmphh mmmph – "I'm being serious. I really, really can't die." Be revived by teammates three times Mphmmph mhhmmph – "Use your ninja star!" Hit 10 headshots on opponents Mmmh mpphh mmmph – "Wee! He can fly! He can fly!" Travel 200 metres while in the air Mph mph mhppmmph – "My followers shall help me see through until I am accepted as a princess by all." Hire an NPC Completing each of the individual Kenny Quests will net you 400 Cred towards your Born in Chaos Pass, while completing four out of the six will earn you a Memberberry reward. Six Memberberries are required to unlock the Imaginationland Airship Glider, so it's worth putting the time in to earn this one!

Fortnite update today (22nd January): What changes in the v39.30 patch notes
Another week, another Fortnite update, and this promises to be a pretty major one! We've got some incredible collabs coming along, as well as the customary cosmetics and even a new game mode. So, if you're curious what you have to look forward to in patch v39.30, here's what you need to know. Fortnite update today (22nd January): What changes in the v39.30 patch notes Let's get started with the collaborations, because boy is it a big one. Fortnite is introducing a crossover with The Office US, following a recent teaser posted to official Fortnite social media accounts. Two new skins are set to be added to the game, and while it hasn't been officially confirmed, it has been widely reported that the duo will be Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute. We may also get an Office POI on the map itself, although this has also not been confirmed. This update will also reportedly see the addition of some Looney Tunes character skins. We don't know which ones, as of yet, but it's safe to assume that Bugs Bunny will be in there at the very least. A new limited time game mode is set to be added today, called Fall Guys Crown Jam. It's a 3v3 LTM, described by Epic Games as a cross between basketball, American football and an obstacle course, and will be available until 9th February. Beyond all that, today will reportedly see the return of KPop Demon Hunters skins to the Item Shop, and potentially even a second wave of skins to go with them. Lastly, as with any Fortnite update, patch v39.30 will introduce some tweaks and bug fixes, such as lag in the Lobby and Locker menus, delays when using Emotes, and being unable to Reboot teammates in-game.

The Office in Fortnite: Release date speculation and leaked skins
The good denizens of Scranton are set to get some Fortnite representation, with The Office reportedly getting its own crossover. The ongoing South Park event means we're already right in the middle of one TV comedy event, but Epic Games can never sit still. So, when could The Office x Fortnite release, and what skins are we getting? Here's what we know so far. The Office x Fortnite release date speculation At the time of writing, The Office x Fortnite has no confirmed release date, but the crossover has now been confirmed by Fortnite, with the official social media channels posting the a reference to the show with the message "Build. Beets. Battle Royale". However, according to noted leaked HYPEX, the new content will be added to the game files on 22nd January, suggesting a release date during the following week of 22nd-28th January. The news originally came from SamLeakss on X, via AdiraFNInfo, who reported that a "nostalgic duo from a live-action TV series" would be added into Fortnite next week. A few hours after this news broke, Adira teased that it was The Office with a a GIF of Michael Scott, with fellow leaker ShiinaBR confirming the same news in a YouTube video. What to expect from The Office x Fortnite: All leaked skins At the moment, it hasn't been confirmed by Epic Games what's coming in the update, but our good friend Adira has reported some insider knowledge. According to a recent post, Fortnite is foregoing skins for Jim and Pam, instead opting to add Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute into the game. This makes sense, as previous reports had suggested that "an iconic duo" would be added into the game, and Michael and Dwight certainly fit the bill.

28 Years Later x Fortnite: Release date, what's included and how to get
Ahead of the release of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple later this week, the film is celebrating the occasion by getting its very own Fortnite collab. If you haven't caught up with 28 Years Later yet, then there's still time to do so before the sequel arrives – although you could just play some Fortnite instead. It's far from the first time Fortnite has done a movie collab – we're currently in the midst of a whole Hollywood season, after all – but the 28 Days Later series is certainly one of the more unexpected films to hit the game. But nothing is too unexpected for Fortnite, so here's when the 28 Years Later x Fortnite collab releases, what's included in the crossover and how to get all the new items. 28 Years Later x Fortnite release date The 28 Years Later x Fortnite collaboration is now out, having released on 13th January 2026. The collab was added with the latest Fortnite Item Shop update, at around midnight GMT – the evening of the 12th for those of you in the Americas. It's not a surprise, though, with the next film in the series releasing later in the week! What's in the 28 Years Later Fortnite collab and how to get it Unfortunately, no skins were added to the game as part of this crossover, with players instead getting a Bundle containing two items. These are: Bio Hazard Back Bling Vertebasher Pickaxe The Bio Hazard Back Bling costs 500 V-Bucks, while the Vertebasher Pickaxe costs 800 V-Bucks. The Years of Rage Bundle contains both, and is 1,300 V-Bucks, although for a limited time, players can purchase it for a discounted 1,000 V-Bucks instead. Still, it's a shame we won't get Ralph Fiennes in Fortnite – maybe next time, eh? Check out more of our Gaming coverage or visit our TV Guide and Streaming Guide to find out what's on.

If you're excited for the event, here's what you need to know about the Fortnite South Park release date, and all the upcoming South Park skins too. South Park returned from a long hiatus in 2025, but who cares about that when 2026 is the year it lands in Fortnite? Fortnite has already seen plenty of iconic animated shows make their way into the game, whether that's The Simpsons, Family Guy or Rick and Morty, and now it's South Park's turn. So, when does the South Park event begin in Fortnite? What's going to be included? Here's everything we know so far. When is South Park coming to Fortnite?

Captioned, "Chaos, loading...", the post also comes with a confirmed release date for the event – the South Park x Fortnite event will begin on 9th January 2026. In December 2025, X account HYPEX revealed that not only is a South Park collaboration on the way, but it's set to be a big one too (more on that down below). What to expect from the South Park x Fortnite crossover: All South Park skins The highlight of the collaboration is a set of five new South Park skins in Fortnite. These skins are: Stan Kyle Kenny Cartman Butters (Professor Chaos) Since they're all kids, these will all be mech skins, similar to the treatment Bart got in the recent Simpsons crossover. These skins will likely cost 1,500 V-Bucks each, or be available as part of a larger South Park Bundle.

Fortnite Winterfest 2025: Release date, start time and Harry Potter rumours explained
It's the most wonderful time of the year – Fortnite Winterfest 2025 is about to start! Giving the map a snowy, festive makeover, Fortnite Winterfest 2025 will deliver some gifts to the people of Battle Royale Island, including some rumoured Harry Potter and Hatsune Miku collabs. It's the latest update in what has already been a bumper Chapter 7 Season 1, which has even seen a brand-new lost Kill Bill chapter premiere. But if you want to know what time Fortnite Winterfest 2025 starts in your time zone, here's what you need to know. When is Fortnite Winterfest 2025? Release date and UK start time Fortnite Winter Fest 2025 is scheduled to start on Thursday, 18th December 2025 at roughly 1-2pm GMT. We don't know the exact time that the event will start, as this depends on how long Fortnite's downtime lasts, but based on previous events, we think that 1-2pm GMT is a good estimate. If you're in a different time zone, here's what time we think Fortnite Winterfest 2025 will begin for you: US West Coast (PST) – 5-6am US Mountain (MST) – 6-7am US Central (CST) – 7-8am US East Coast (EST) – 8-9am Central Europe (CET) – 2-3pm Japan (JST) – 10-11pm Australia East Coast (AEDT) – 12-1am, 19th December New Zealand (NZDT) – 2-3am, 19th December What to expect from Fortnite Winterfest 2025 According to Fortnite leaker HYPEX (who is rarely wrong), there will be a Harry Potter collaboration in Fortnite, which will include skins and a Broom Mythic at least. View oEmbed on the source website The skin has already leaked, which you can see below: View oEmbed on the source website A broom would let players fly around the map, and we wouldn’t be surprised if there was a Golden Snitch to catch during rounds, either. We already had the Witch’s Broom way back in Chapter 2, so we’ve already got an idea of how a Nimbus 2000 might function in Fortnite. View Green Video on the source website The aforementioned Blortzen also points to a Winterfest Hatsune Miku, based on Snow Miku, going by a leaked Fortnite LEGO hairpiece model that closely resembles Snow Miku’s hair. And HYPEX also shared news that, judging from footage from the Naruto collaboration trailer, more of the map will be covered in snow, based on analysis from SpushFNBR, who spotted the change in the video, and KPMisParrot, who geolocated where in the map it was. So all in all, we’ve got Harry Potter, Snow Miku and snow. What a time to be alive.

Yep, you read the correctly. Kim Kardashian is coming to Fortnite, with the reality TV star being the latest real-world celebrity to be honoured as a ‘Fortnite Icon’. Not content with having a hit show on Disney Plus and training to be a lawyer, not to mention her numerous other business interests, Kim K has somehow found time to sign off on a Fortnite collab. In fact, she even took the time to appear in a trailer for the collaboration herself, which you don't always see when famous faces are plonked into Fortnite. So, when will Kim Kardashian arrive in Fortnite, and what should you expect from her arrival? Keep on reading and we’ll answer those questions for you! When is the Kim Kardashian Fortnite release date? The release date for Kim Kardashian’s Fortnite collaboration is Saturday 13th December 2025, Epic Games has confirmed. Here in the UK, however, you’ll have to wait until Sunday 14th December, due to the magic of time difference. Epic has even been so kind as to furnish us with an exact launch time! The collab will launch for American players at 7pm ET on Saturday, which means that, here in the UK, the content should become available at midnight going into Sunday 14th December. To get a taste in the meantime, check out the official trailer below! View oEmbed on the source website What to expect from Kim Kardashian in Fortnite So, what’s this collab all about? Considering Kim Kardashian’s fashion credentials, it shouldn’t come as any surprise that there are a couple of different outfits involved! There will be the Kim Kardashian outfit (including a white jacket that you can toggle on or off) and the Iconic Kim Kardashian outfit (which offers over 25 variations including different hairstyles, colour-ways and jewellery). Both of these Kim Kardashian skins will be available in the Fortnite Item Shop, as will a number of accessories (there’s a backpack, a jetplane-themed glider, and the Ring Light To Go Back Bling). There will also be two emotes. One called Slurp the Internet, which is already getting some attention online (funnily enough), and another called the Diamond Drop Emote. It sounds like all of this will be available in the Item Shop, but there will be another way to get some of the Kim K goodies. You can take part in the Kim Kardashian cup for a chance of getting some of them for free — the full terms and conditions for that tournament can be found here. Certainly, after this weekend, we won’t be surprised if we see lots of Kim K’s on the island! In the meantime, you can kill a few minutes by trying out the Fortnite quiz below!

Fortnite Wrapped: How to see your stats for the year explained
Gaming is far from immune when it comes to Spotify Wrapped-inspired statistical analysis, and now, Fortnite fans can even get a dose of data to round off the year. Other gaming versions of this sort of thing include Discord Checkpoint (which will tell you who you’ve been messaging the most) and Steam Replay (which will tell you what games you’ve sunk the most hours into this year). Fortnite, interestingly, hasn’t yet revealed an official way to see your stats for the year. But that hasn’t stopped fans from taking those matters into their own hands with a fun third-party tool. So, let’s get to it. How do you see your Fortnite Wrapped stats this year? We’ll explain it all for you right now. How to see your Fortnite Wrapped stats To see your Fortnite Wrapped stats for 2025, you need to head over to Fortnite.gg and type in your Epic ID name. It’s worth noting that this is not an official Epic Games website, but it seems to be plugged into a public database of Fortnite information and you don’t have to sign over any details about yourself to take a little look. Before you put your Epic name in, you can also see some global leaderboards and get some understanding of what elite-level play looks like. Don’t feel too bad if you’re some ways off of those numbers, though! What to expect from Fortnite Wrapped Once you’re looking at your own Fortnite Wrapped, what can you expect to see? The following stats should all be available: Total hours played Number of matches Number of wins Number of kills Percentage breakdown of which seasons you played the most How all of the above compares to the average player For a fan-made tool, that’s not a bad amount of data! Make sure to grab a screenshot, save it somewhere, and check back next year to see if you can beat those numbers. We believe in you!

When is the next Fortnite live event? Zero Hour date and UK start time confirmed
As this season draws to a close, when's our next live event coming up?
We've only got a few days to go until the start of the next Fortnite season, but before we get that far, we've got the next Live Event – Fortnite Zero Hour – to look forward to. The Simpsons mini-season has been one of the best crossovers Fortnite has ever seen, and the end of Chapter 6 will see some of the other big crossovers making a comeback, like Superman, TMNT and more! You really don't want to miss out on this live event, so here's the confirmed date and time when Zero Hour starts in Fortnite. When is the next Fortnite live event? Date and UK start time The next Fortnite Live Event will take place on 29th November 2025. Here in the UK, it will start at 7pm GMT, which corresponds to the following times in various times zones: If you're in another time zone, here's what time the event will begin for you: US West Coast (PST) – 11am US Mountain (MST) – 12pm US Central (CST) – 1pm US East Coast (EST) – 2pm Central Europe (CET) – 8pm Singapore (SGT) – 3am, 30th November Tokyo (JST) – 4am, 30th November Australia East Coast (AEDT) – 6am, 30th November New Zealand (NZDT) – 8am, 30th November View Green Video on the source website The upcoming Zero Hour live event will continue on from the events of Welcome, Our Alien Overlords, and will feature a huge ensemble cast of returning characters from the rest of Chapter 6 – the most of any event thus far. Beyond Fortnite's own original characters like Hope and Jones, characters confirmed to be making a return are Godzilla and Kong, Superman, the Dino Megazord, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, KPop Demon Hunters, and Scooby-Doo and Shaggy Rogers. We'll also reportedly see a couple of new characters, such as The Bride from Kill Bill and Marty McFly from Back to the Future. When was the last Fortnite live event? The most recent Fortnite live event took place on 1st November 2025 to mark the end of Chapter 6 Season 4. Dubbed 'Welcome, Our Alien Overlords', the event introduced The Simpsons mini-season, centred around Bart's Treehouse and an attempt to contain the Dark Presence. It saw Homer get his hands on the Zero Point Shard, which he has since used to cause all kinds of mayhem from Donut Storms to creating Homer Clones. How to join a Fortnite live event To experience the next Fortnite live event, it's best to join a game of Battle Royale before the event is due to begin to experience it in its entirety. In preparation for events, Epic often takes down Fortnite experiences (like creator mode) until the event's conclusion as it begins to work on implementing the update. We suspect it will play out much the same way for the next live event, though we'd recommend logging on at least a couple of hours early if you are serious about attending it. As the most popular game in the world, Fortnite commonly receives huge queues as players attempt to sign on to Epic's servers, so whatever you do, always sign on early to not miss out. Fortnite is available via the Epic Games Store across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

How to take parts to Hope in Fortnite explained
There are only a few quests left to finish up The Simpsons mini-season, and you might be wondering how to take parts to Hope in Fortnite. With the next Fortnite live event around the corner, heralding the start of Fortnite Chapter 7, you'll want to get all the XP from this quest to finish up your Battle Pass. So, if you're struggling with taking the parts to Hope in this Story Quest, here's what you need to know. How to take parts to Hope in Fortnite Once you've collected the Zero Point Shard in Fortnite, you'll be tasked with bringing parts to Hope. You can find Hope waiting for you at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant in the northeast of the map – simply track the quest and you'll get a marker showing exactly where to go. Once you arrive at the location, talk to Hope and select the option to give her the parts, completing the quest – it's that simple, or rather, it should be… Take parts to Hope bug explained For many players, the quest requiring you to take parts to hope is currently bugged and cannot be completed. This means that when you go and meet Hope to give her the parts, you will not have any option to do so, meaning you'll be unable to complete the quest. At the time of writing, there does not seem to be any solution to this in-game, and players will simply have to wait for Epic Games to deliver a patch that fixes this. Until that point, you can try restarting your game, or even your PC or console, but if that doesn't work, there's not a lot else you can do, unfortunately!

Fortnite Playboi Carti skin: Release date speculation and what to expect
Fortnite has never been a stranger to musical collaborations, and Playboi Carti looks set to be the next artist in that long line. Between the upcoming live event and the start of the next Fortnite season, it's a big time to be a Fortnite fan! So, if you're excited to get your hands on the new Playboi Carti skin when it joins the game, here's what you need to know about when it might come out and how to unlock it. When does the Playboi Carti Fortnite skin release? Our prediction At the time of writing, there is no confirmed release date for the Playboi Carti Fortnite skin, but we do have a rough idea of when it might arrive. First things first, we do know it exists – that much has been confirmed by the man himself via Instagram. Beyond that, all we know is that, according to dataminers, the skin is "coming soon". Initially, the most obvious release date would be 29th November, to coincide with the start of the next Fortnite season, but we already know that a BLACKPINK Lisa skin is being added to the game on the same day as part of Fortnite Festival. As such, we think that it's more likely that the Playboi Carti skin will release in early December instead, so as not to clash with Lisa's introduction. What to expect from the Playboi Carti Fortnite skin All we know about the collaboration thus far is that, according to leaks, there will be a Playboi Carti Outfit added to the game as well as an EVIL J0RDAN Jam Track. The Outfit will cost 1,500 V-Bucks on its own, or 2,500 V-Bucks as part of a Bundle, while the Jam Track will cost 500 V-Bucks. The other contents of the Bundle have not been confirmed yet, but based on previous Fortnite Icon collaborations, there will be an Icon Emote, Back Bling and/or Pickaxe, and potentially some cosmetics like Wraps.

How to find and eliminate Homer Clones in Fortnite explained
Fortnite's Homer Clones are plaguing the island, and if you want to get your story quests complete, you're going to need to eliminate 15 of them. But if you can't seem to find any Homer Clones in your matches, you may be making slow progress when it comes to this particular quest. That's why we've put together a quick little explainer telling you how to find Homer Clones in Fortnite and how to eliminate them! Where are the Homer Clones in Fortnite? How to find Homer Clones explained You can find Homer Clones wandering across the map, but if you want to find a big group of them, then you'll need to keep an eye out for the floating doughnuts that periodically spawn around the map. A few seconds after the first Storm Circle appears, a floating doughnut will appear on the map – this will be marked with an icon of Homer's head next to a pink doughnut. Head to this location on your map, and you'll find a huge crowd of Homer Clones all gathered around, waiting to be killed. If you run out of Homer Clones before you've completed the quest, you can shoot the floating doughnut to destroy it, which will in turn spawn more Homer Clones. Bear in mind, however, that once you start attacking the floating doughnut, any nearby Homer Clones will become aggressive and start attacking you, so be sure to kill them all first. How to eliminate Homer Clones in Fortnite explained Once you've located a Homer Clone, all you need to do is kill them as you would any other target NPC. Whip a gun out and start blasting, but be aware that the Homer Clones can get startled and run away, so it's best to try to get them all killed as quickly as possible. The quest requires you to eliminate 15 Homer Clones, so this may take a couple of tries if you don't manage to get it all done in one go, or if other players are killing Homer Clones while you're there.

How to travel distance under the effects of Tomatoes in Fortnite explained
One of the latest quests added to Fortnite requires players to travel distance under the effects of tomatoes. This has been added as part of the ongoing Simpsons season (alongside eliminating Homer Clones), seemingly in reference to Homer's iconic tomacco. If you're wondering where to find Tomatoes in Fortnite to complete this quest, here's everything you need to know. How to travel distance under the effects of Tomatoes in Fortnite: Where to find Tomatoes All you need to do to complete the quest and travel 500 metres under the effect of Tomatoes is use a Tomato(???) and just run that distance – to specify, a Tomato(???) is a large, purple tomato, and is different from the regular Tomatoes. To do that, of course, you will have to actually find a Tomato(???) first, but luckily there is one location on the map where you'll find them in abundance. Head to the very northwest of the map to Cletus' Corn Hole. Here, you'll find rows and rows of tomato plants, ripe for the picking. If you hit the plants themselves with your pickaxe, you will just destroy the plants. Instead, you need to find one of the buckets dotted around the fields. Interact with one of these buckets and you'll earn yourself a Tomato(???). Unlike the regular Tomatoes you'll find in-game which can be consumed to heal you for 10hp, the special, purple Tomatoes that are available as part of this event will grant you a Low Gravity effect, letting you float off for your 500-metre sojourn. Once you've got a Tomato(???), throw it at your feet like you would with a Chug Splash and run that 500 metres to complete the quest!

How to claim Fortnite Crew with Xbox Game Pass explained
As part of the recent shake-up of Xbox Game Pass, Fortnite Crew is now available through the service. Fortnite's own monthly subscription that provides access to the Battle Pass, a monthly V-Bucks stipend and more, it's one of the big new features that Xbox has brought to Game Pass this month. So if you're a Game Pass subscriber looking to get your Fortnite fix, how do you claim Fortnite Crew? Here's what you need to know. When does Fortnite Crew come to Xbox Game Pass From 18th November 2025, Fortnite Crew is available to claim with all Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscriptions only. That means if you're subscribed to the Essential, Premium or PC Game Pass tiers, you will not be able to claim Fortnite Crew as part of your subscription. How to claim Fortnite Crew with Xbox Game Pass As detailed above, you must be subscribed to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to claim Fortnite Crew – if you are, then the process to claim it is simple. You first need to make sure that your Xbox and Epic Games accounts are linked. Head to the Epic Games website and log into your account. Click the profile icon in the top-right corner, and select the 'Account' option. Once the Account settings menu is open, click the 'Linked accounts' tab, and click the link button beneath 'Xbox network'. Follow the steps, logging into your Xbox account and confirming that you want to link the two accounts. Once you've got your Epic Games and Xbox accounts linked, Fortnite Crew should be redeemed automatically, and be available the next time you launch the game on an Xbox console or PC. That being said, it may take a bit of time to confirm that the accounts are linked, so if you launch Fortnite and Fortnite Crew hasn't been added to your account, close the game down and wait 30 minutes or so for the account linking to go through.

Fortnite F1 skins: Formula 1 collab release date and how to get Lewis Hamilton skin
Fortnite is no stranger to sporting collaborations, whether that's Lionel Messi, LeBron James or Naomi Osaka, and you can soon as some F1 skins to that list. The world's biggest motorsport, Formula 1 is coming to Fortnite, and that means skins from some of your favourite constructors too. So, if you're wondering when the Fortnite F1 skins will release, and how to get the Lewis Hamilton skin when they do, here's what you need to know. Fortnite F1 skins: Release date and how to get them The F1 Cosmetic Team Set of skins releases on 20th November 2025. The skins will be available from the Fortnite Item Shop, though we don't currently know how much they will cost. This release date coincides with the 2025 Las Vegas Grand Prix, which takes place this weekend. The cosmetic bundle will include a collection of cosmetics including Outfits, Gliders and Pickaxes, all of which will feature the branding of the 10 Formula 1 teams. As well as those themed cosmetics, players will get the Formula 1 Back Bling and a Formula 1 Emote. How to get Lewis Hamilton Fortnite skin While the latest collab brings some new F1 skins to Fortnite, it's not the first time we've seen a crossover between the two, as a Lewis Hamilton skin was previously added to the game. The Lewis Hamilton Bundle includes a Lewis Hamilton Outfit with a few variants, the Rocket-Ready Roscoe and Pole Positioner Back Blings and the Pole Positioner Pickaxe. At the time of writing, the only way to get the Lewis Hamilton Fortnite skin is to buy it from the Item Shop for 1,500 V-Bucks or as part of the above Bundle for 2,400 V-Bucks, and it was last available on 13th July 2025. That being said, with the new F1 collaboration coming to Fortnite later this week, we could see the Lewis Hamilton skin return to the Item Shop, so keep your eyes peeled!

Fortnite Stranger Things collab: Release date and what to expect
As the Stranger Things finale draws ever closer, you'll be able to celebrate (or mourn) the series coming to an end in Fortnite with an upcoming collaboration. Epic Games will be turning the game Upside Down, bringing Hawkins and a ton of cosmetics along for the ride. We've already had a few Stranger Things skins added before, including Eleven and the Demogorgon, so what else could be left? Here's what you need to know about the Fortnite Stranger Things collab. When does the Fortnite Stranger Things collab release? The Fortnite Stranger Things event will begin on 24th November 2025. This date coincides with the start of Stranger Things season 5, which is set to release later that week. What to expect from the Fortnite Stranger Things collab The biggest addition from the Fortnite Stranger Things update is that the game will receive a brand-new Blitz Royale map inspired by the Upside Down. The map will feature an alternate version of the town of Hawkins, with an enormous Mind Flayer floating ominously over the map. As well as that, it has been confirmed that the game will be receiving "new outfits and accessories," although it hasn't been confirmed what any of these will be. We've already seen Eleven, the Demogorgon, Chief Hopper and a bunch of other cosmetics added to the game back in 2019, so other potential skins include Eddie Munson, Vecna, Steve Harrington and more. The most likely skin, in our opinion, is a unique Peely skin. Peely appeared at the premiere for Stranger Things season 5 wearing a Hellfire Club jacket, suggesting that he could receive a similar skin in-game once the update is released.

The Simpsons have landed in Fortnite, and with the new Battle Pass, you can now unlock a whole host of Simpsons skins too.

The Simpsons in Fortnite: Release date, UK launch time and what to expect
Say some gangsta is dissin' your Back Bling. You just give 'em one of these.
It's time to start playing that iconic theme tune in your head, because The Simpsons are coming to Fortnite very soon indeed! Name another game that can have K-Pop Demon Hunters and Huggy Wuggy in it one day, and Homer Simpson the next. I'll wait. In a rare move for the giant developer, Epic Games has announced this collab ahead of time, with a fun little video starring Kang and Kodos (the two dastardly aliens from The Simpsons). In the video, we see Fortnite players with Simpsons-style yellow skin, and we see the Fortnite original character Fishstick reduced to, well, fish sticks, by the extra-terrestrial baddies. The Simpsons event in Fortnite looks to be a mini season with a live event attached, so you'll want to get involved before it disappears and the next full season arrives to take its place. So, when does The Simpsons x Fortnite event release and what can you expect from it? Keep on reading and we'll run through everything you need to know. The Simpsons in Fortnite release date and UK launch time The Simpsons collaboration releases in Fortnite on Saturday 1st November 2025. As for a precise time, we know that the Fortnite Simpsons event will be starting at 3pm GMT. Both the date and the time were confirmed via a YouTube Short posted to the official Fortnite account. If you're in another time zone, here's what time the event will begin for you: US West Coast (PT) – 8am US Mountain (MT) – 9am US Central (CT) – 10am US East Coast (ET) – 11am Central Europe (CET) – 4pm Singapore (SGT) – 11pm Tokyo (JST) – 12am, 2nd November Australia East Coast (AEDT) – 2am New Zealand (NZDT) – 4am What to expect from The Simpsons in Fortnite For once, we actually know quite a lot about this Fortnite event before it has kicked off. It does happen from time to time! Unlike many collabs that just add a few cosmetics or an in-game boss to the game, The Simpsons event is reportedly going to be a full-on mini season, similar to the likes of the yearly Star Wars season. According to noted Fortnite leaker NotPalo, the map will be transformed into Springfield, separated into various iconic locations from the show such as the Springfield Nuclear Plant. View oEmbed on the source website Interestingly, the whole map will also reportedly be cel shaded in order to fit The Simpsons' art style. This visual twist would certainly chime with the official artwork for the event, which seems to show Fortnite skins with a Simpsons-like yellow colour palette. Naturally, there will also be some Simpsons skins added to the game, each of which will include their own LEGO variants. Although none of the skins have been confirmed as of yet, it feels safe to assume that Homer and Marge skins will both be available. Bart and Lisa would initially seem too short to get their own in-game skins, though one leaked Bart skin has appeared online showing him operating a mechanical suit, effectively making him the same height as everyone else. Naturally, with so many legendary side characters to choose from, we wouldn't be surprised to see some other skins made available such as Moe Szyslak, Principal Skinner, Ned Flanders, Krusty the Clown and many more.

Roblox and Fortnite down as huge web outage hits major platforms
A huge number of websites and games are experiencing outages today (Monday 20th October), including platforms such as Roblox and Fortnite. The source of the issues appears to stem from Amazon’s cloud computing platform, Amazon Web Services (AWS), which hosts many of the world's platforms, including banking services. As such, when AWS suffers a fault, much of the internet goes with it, including games that require online connectivity. Currently, players are struggling to log in to Fortnite, Roblox, Clash Royale, Palworld and many more. View oEmbed on the source website Mercifully, the outage hasn’t hit Roblox when Taco Tuesday was running in Steal a Brainrot. That would have been a dark day indeed… Fortunately, AWS appears to have identified a potential root cause and is working to fix it, as noted in an operational update on the AWS Health Status website. “Oct 20 2:01 AM PDT We have identified a potential root cause for error rates for the DynamoDB APIs in the US-EAST-1 Region," it reads. "Based on our investigation, the issue appears to be related to DNS resolution of the DynamoDB API endpoint in US-EAST-1. "We are working on multiple parallel paths to accelerate recovery. This issue also affects other AWS Services in the US-EAST-1 Region.” This was swiftly followed by another update saying that AWS is “seeing significant signs of recovery”, so hopefully you should see services return to normal shortly.
