Rumors of a Fortnite x Devil May Cry crossover are heating up, with several leakers suggesting an imminent release. While Fortnite leaks are common, and not all pan out, the persistence of this particular rumor, coupled with corroboration from multiple sources, is generating significant buzz.
This collaboration has been a long-standing wish among fans, fueled by years of speculation. The timing may be particularly opportune, given Fortnite's history of revisiting past partnerships, especially with Capcom (following previous successful Resident Evil crossovers).
The rumor mill is particularly active, with leakers like ShiinaBR citing information from Loolo_WRLD and Wensoing. Interestingly, XboxEra co-founder Nick Baker initially mentioned this possibility in 2023, and recent insider confirmations lend credence to the speculation.
Potential Timing and Character Selection:
Given the packed Fortnite release schedule, some speculate the Devil May Cry collaboration might arrive after Chapter 6 Season 1. While the extended timeframe for confirmation has raised some eyebrows, Nick Baker's past accuracy (regarding Doom and TMNT collaborations) bolsters the credibility of the leak.
Character selection is another point of speculation. Dante and Vergil are the most likely candidates, given their iconic status. However, past collaborations (like the Cyberpunk 2077 crossover featuring Female V) suggest a willingness to deviate from the most obvious choices. This opens the door for other popular characters like Lady, Trish, Nico, Nero, or even V from Devil May Cry 5.
The resurgence of this leak has heightened anticipation, with many fans expecting official confirmation or further details soon.
