Fortnite is set to collaborate with yet another popular anime known as Jujutsu Kaisen. Even though Epic Games has officially confirmed nothing, the same leaker who released information regarding the new Terminator collaboration has given fans some pretty solid evidence about this particular crossover as well. A reputable leaker/data miner called "BarbieharpFN" claimed that three popular characters from the anime Jujutsu Kaisen will join the metaverse very soon.
Megumi and Gojo have been revealed by the leaker alongside Nobara. According to the leaks, the three Jujutsu Kaisen Outfits look very stylish and modern in nature. There’s a high possibility that these cosmetics have been created with the help of Unreal Engine 5.1. These outfits look much better as compared to the older cel-shaded anime Outfits.
Jujutsu Kaisen cosmetics will reportedly cost 5,200 V-Bucks in the Fortnite Item Shop
Apart from the Outfits, the leaker/ data miner Barbieharp FN also shared that several other cosmetic items will be revealed as a part of the collaboration, such as Back Blings, Glider, Pickaxes, and Emotes. Considering that anime is the most recent trend that Epic Games is jumping on, the cosmetics will be quite pricey. Here is a breakdown:
Outfit: 1,500 V-Bucks
Pickaxes: 800 V-Bucks
Emotes: 200 V-Bucks (In Bundle/Set)
As per the leaks shared by leaker/data miner "iFireMonkey," players will be required to pay a whopping 5,200 V-Bucks to get their hands on all the cosmetics that are a part of the Fortnite x Jujutsu Kaisen collaboration. Although the cost is a bit on the high side, it is important to note that this is the price of three different Bundles/Sets.
Moreover, this price is only based on speculation and leaks, so it should not be taken seriously since nothing official has been revealed regarding the Fortnite x Jujutsu Kaisen collaboration. Once the collaboration is confirmed and the cosmetics are added to the game’s Item Shop, the prices might vary. With that being said, several more characters might be introduced in the Item Shop at a later time and date if the past is any indication.
When will the Fortnite x Jujutsu Kaisen collaboration take place?
The cosmetic items will be featured in Fortnite in Chapter 4 Season 3, based on the description mentioned next to them in the leaks. Even though the season is almost at its end, the timeline still makes plenty of sense. As Season 2 of Jujutsu Kaisen launched on July 6, 2023, one might speculate that the crossover will occur sometime during the upcoming month.
There’s a huge possibility that the cosmetics will be added to the Fortnite Item Shop just before or after the release of a major Jujutsu Kaisen Season 2 episode. Epic Games has been following this very pattern for most anime-related crossovers. Meanwhile, all we can do is wait and see when the official collaboration takes place. If it does not take place in Chapter 4 Season 3, then it will reportedly occur in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 4.
