The Fortnite x Overwatch crossover has reportedly been revealed by a leaker, with Genji, Mercy, Tracer and D.Va set to arrive as new skins.

It looks like Fortnite fans are in for another crossover, with Blizzard’s hero shooter franchise Overwatch joining the battle royale this time around. Multiple Overwatch characters are reportedly about to land on Island, says popular Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR.

The Overwatch crossover was initially spotted in Fortnite back in late January. However, new information hints that the crossover could be launching much sooner than anticipated. 

If true, this may be one of Fortnite‘s biggest gaming collaborations this year. Here’s what is currently known about Fortnite’s rumoured Overwatch crossover.

Genji, Mercy, Tracer and D.Va Reportedly Coming to Fortnite

Fortnite‘s confirmed Battle Pass track looks excellent, but popular leaker Shiina has now reported that Genji, Mercy, Tracer and D.Va will become playable skins.

Fans will likely be excited by each character’s cosmetic potential. With Genji’s cyber-ninja look, Mercy’s angelic aesthetic, Tracer’s signature chronal accelerator and D.Va’s mech theme, all four characters could fit into Fortnite‘s art style nicely.

Fortnite hasn’t confirmed these skins just yet, but Shiina is reputable when it comes to Fortnite leaks and future collaborations.

More Collaborations and Content Updates Incoming

Furthermore, another LEGO collaboration could be on the way. Teasing a new LEGO Pass expected to release on 16 April, more LEGO skins have the potential to create a strong season for Fortnite.

Aside from new skin tracks, some jam tracks have seemingly been scrapped from this season. Including Eminem – The Real Slim Shady, FE!N (Travis Scott) and Bye Bye Bye. 

It is unclear if these tracks have been removed or pushed back entirely. Overwatch itself is also making a comeback of sorts. The game recently went through a large rebrand that not only saw it revert to its old name, but detailed a story expansion that will take players through 2026.

Should this crossover be revealed officially in the near future, both Fortnite and Overwatch players are in for a treat.
