Fortnite, the popular battle royale game, has a history of collaborations, and a recent leak suggests more characters from The Walking Dead could be joining the roster. This follows the recent release of Fortnite OG Season 3, a nostalgic game mode recreating the game's early days.

Rick Grimes, Daryl Dixon, and Michonne are already part of the Fortnite universe.  The expansive cast of The Walking Dead offers a wealth of potential new skins, and fans have been clamoring for more.  New rumors suggest these wishes might soon be granted.

Prominent Fortnite leaker HYPEX recently tweeted about the possibility of new The Walking Dead cosmetics arriving in-game. Speculation points to Negan as a potential skin, coinciding with the upcoming second season of The Walking Dead: Dead City, premiering May 4, 2025.

The prospect of Negan's inclusion has gained traction, with dataminers reportedly finding evidence that his iconic barbed-wire baseball bat, Lucille, could be introduced as a mythic item. Latest Game Information

Maggie, another central character in The Walking Dead: Dead City, is also a popular fan suggestion for a new skin.  The question remains whether these rumored cosmetics will be part of a larger event or simply appear in the Item Shop, as has been the case with previous collaborations.  A prior crossover featured temporary portals connecting the Fortnite and The Walking Dead universes.

Past The Walking Dead collaborations have coincided with Fortnite's annual Fortnitemares event.  However, with October still months away, a new set of skins could potentially arrive much sooner. As always, it's important to approach leaks with caution until Epic Games makes an official announcement. While many rumors prove true, plans are subject to change. With a wealth of content currently available and more on the way, the future of Fortnite looks bright for fans.
