Fortnite has announced that South Park content will be arriving in the game this week, and the game's design director seems thrilled. Fortnite has crossed over with everything at this point – good, bad, and weird, Epic Games has found a way to get its hands on it. But over the last few years, Epic has really gone after the animated sitcom market. Starting with Family Guy's Peter Griffin in 2024, this was swiftly followed by the likes of Futurama, King of the Hill, Bob's Burgers, and Beavis and Butthead before culminating in an entire season based around The Simpsons last November. But one of the pillars of that genre will be soon joining them. After some rumor and speculation, today Fortnite posted a picture of Butters from South Park playing the game with the caption "Chaos, loading…" Also included in the post is a date, 1.9.26 (which is three days from now, not September for those of you in countries that do dates the right way). Eat my shorts: The Simpsons is releasing four mini-episodes on Disney Plus to help explain its Fortnite crossover What are the biggest changes for Fortnite The Simpsons Season? Fortnite Chapter 7 was designed to take the game "back to its battle royale roots," even though it didn't actually start as one, and one lead is "both in awe and hugely proud of this team" Fortnite design director Ted Timmins expresses his excitement for the collab in a follow-up post on Twitter, saying: "AHHHHHHHHHHHH WORKING ON THIS ONE MADE ME SO HAPPY." Timmins continues, "Please excuse the lack of professionalism here but working at Epic allows you to have your childhood dreams come true." What the crossover entails hasn't been confirmed, but given the focus on Butters and the use of "Chaos," it's safe to assume Butters' supervillain alter ego, Professor Chaos, could be part of it. Fortnite leaker HYPEX claims the crossover will feature multiple skins as well as Mythic items that players can pick up during their battle royale matches, so it looks like it won't just be cosmetics. I'd also wager some form of Sidekick based on the recent SpongeBob collab, perhaps a Kenny sidekick that has a ton of death animations? We won't need to wait too long to know. Until then, why not relive the show's finest moments with our ranking of the best South Park episodes.
