Another hit game is coming to Fortnite for an exciting collaboration! The popular horror game is joining the battle royale game, according to trusted leakers @ShiinaBR and @FNBRintel. Considering how Halloween approaches, it is just right that they’re bringing its odd horror elements in the game. For now, here’s everything you need to know about the Fortnite X REPO collaboration.

What Is R.E.P.O. and Why Is It Perfect for Fortnite? 

Launching in early access in February 2025, R.E.P.O quickly became a viral sensation within the gaming community. This co-op horror game puts players in control of clunky robots and work together to explore the abandoned maps. Throughout exploration, they will have to collect loot and reach extraction points while avoiding dangerous enemies on their way.

While seemingly simple, its replayability and humorous content make it an instant favorite among gamers. Also, it uniquely blends the horror elements with comedic gameplay mechanics, which is quite new for gaming titles. So rather than getting scared, some players find themselves in hilarious situations instead. 

Who Leaked The Collaboration

Although it remains a rumor for now, many players are already anticipating the upcoming collaboration. It was @FNBRintel and @ShiinaBR who teased the information first, who are trusted leakers within the community. In fact, @ShiinaBR is recognized as an Epic Games partner and accurately reports information first-hand.

They both confirmed the crossover back on September 8, 2025, with a caption saying “coming very soon.” So, there’s a slim chance for it to be a hoax or false claim. These leakers were also the first to reveal previous collaborations, cosmetics, and other game updates.

Expected Cosmetics and Content

According to the leaked information, the Fortnite X REPO collaboration is introducing a new themed cosmetics collection. Among the possible additions are the Semibot outfit, pickaxes, back blings, and industrial-themed wraps. If you’re playing REPO, you’ll be familiar with the iconic Semibot, which is the costume of robotic characters you control.

It will let you embody the clunky, mechanical aesthetic that defines the horror game. Plus, they may also introduce new emotes based on the game’s memorable moments and characters. They may reference the various monsters players encounter involving the gnomes and peepers. 

More so, Epic may also introduce a new cosmetic category alongside the R.E.P.O. update, bringing the robots in-game. This might arrive in update v37.20, letting players have AI-controlled buddies to tag around them. Also, its unique design makes it a perfect candidate for the mechanics of the new item.

Release Timeline and What’s Next

There are still no official dates that come out beyond the “coming very soon” hint from the leakers. Epic Games is still keeping it under wraps, possibly surprising players in the upcoming updates. So far, many are suggesting it will coincide with one of the regular Item Shop rotations or possibly a larger game update.

Originally, Fortnite’s set to have a major update on September 9, 2025, but it was delayed due to unforeseen circumstances. Perhaps the team is adding more to the upcoming update, which may spark buzz within the gaming community. 

Final Thoughts

Keep an eye on Fortnite’s official social media accounts so you can hear the latest Fortnite X REPO news. Epic Games is on a roll with their collaborations from One Punch Man to now, the viral R.E.P.O. game. This raised anticipation and excitement for gamers, where hits from differing genres collide. So, which of these upcoming features are you most excited for?
