This season of Fortnite is all about superheroes. From Robin to Killswitch to the recent addition of Superman, there's no shortage of super powers on display. But what kind of season would it be without the strongest hero ever: Saitama?
New details about the long-rumored One-Punch Man crossover with Fortnite have emerged. While Epic Games has not officially announced the crossover, prominent Fortnite leaker HYPEX has shared some of the reported details about the upcoming collaboration.
According to the post, which sources @l3stei and @Wensoing, the One-Punch Man x Fortnite collaboration will include a Saitama cosmetic set that comes with at least a pickaxe and two emotes. The first emote references the "ok" scene/panel from the anime and manga, and includes a speech bubble. The second emote is still largley a mystery but is said to include a prop. HYPEX adds that he'll also have his own pickaxe.
Unfortunately, those are all the details we have right now. We're still not quite sure when the One-Punch Man crossover will go live, but fellow leaker @ShiinaBR confirmed that it will not be with this week's update.
As of right now, Saitama is the only confirmed character from One-Punch Man, but there's hope that other heroes from the manga/anime will make their way into the battle royale.
Fortnite is currently in Chapter 6, Season 3, which is subtitled "Super." The season began on June 7, 2025 and is scheduled to run until early August, which gives a few more weeks for the collaboration to go live. Although the superhero theme of the current season makes for perfect timing for the crossover, it's entirely possible that Saitama could arrive after the current season -- perhaps sometime in October when the new season of the anime launches.
Fortnite just recently kicked off its Superman crossover event. Last week, the Man of Steel arrived in the battle royale in celebration of the latest film's release. The latest update adds items, powers, and a point of interest on the map, all inspired by the film. The highlight of the crossover event, however, is the addition of various Superman cosmetics.
Anyone who owns the Super Battle Pass can work to unlock two different Superman outfits just by simply leveling up. There are also matching accessories like the Daily Flight Glider, Super Cape Back Bling, Crystal Smasher Pickaxe, Super Save Emote, and more.
Seeing as how Superman is the current focus right now, it's unlikely that One-Punch Man will steal the spotlight. Of course, if its just a cosmetic bundle and not a special event, then there's really nothing stopping Epic from just sending it directly to the in-game Item Shop.
