Fortnite and Devil May Cry: A Collaboration on the Horizon?
Recent leaks suggest an upcoming collaboration between Fortnite and the Devil May Cry franchise. While Fortnite leaks are frequent, and not all pan out, the persistent chatter surrounding a Devil May Cry crossover is gaining traction. This collaboration has been a long-standing wish among players.
The anticipation is heightened by the expected arrival of Hatsune Miku and other rumored additions. Given Fortnite's past collaborations with Capcom (including Resident Evil), a Devil May Cry partnership seems increasingly plausible.
Reliable Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR, citing sources Loolo_WRLD and Wensoing, points towards an imminent announcement. Interestingly, XboxEra co-founder Nick Baker initially mentioned this rumor in 2023, and its recent corroboration by multiple insiders strengthens its credibility. Baker's past successful predictions (Doom and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collaborations) further bolster this claim.
Timing and Character Speculation
Given the numerous anticipated additions to Fortnite in the coming weeks, the Devil May Cry collaboration might launch after Chapter 6 Season 1. While some question the validity of the leaks due to the time elapsed since the initial rumor, the weight of corroborating evidence is noteworthy.
The most likely candidates for inclusion are the iconic Dante and Vergil. However, as seen with the recent Cyberpunk 2077 crossover (featuring Female V, unexpectedly), Fortnite's choices can be surprising. Considering Fortnite's tendency to offer male and female options in crossovers, and past Capcom collaborations, characters like Lady, Trish, Nico, Nero, or even V from Devil May Cry 5 are also possibilities.
With the renewed focus on this leak, further details are anticipated shortly.
