A new leak has revealed which Honkai Star Rail Fortnite skins will be coming to the Epic Games battle royale. If true, leakers have also revealed the release date for the upcoming HoYoverse HSR Fortnite crossover.
Honkai Star Rail Fortnite Skins Will Be Kafka and Blade
When Epic Games officially teased the Honkai Star Rail Fortnite collab in January, I predicted that both Kafka and Blade would get skins. After all, the two swords that Epic posted on their social media were exact matches for the weapons that both characters use in the popular HoYoverse RPG. However, a new leak posted by dataminer Wensoing has reportedly confirmed which characters will be included in the HSR collab.
According to a leak, both Blade & Kafka will be the two skins included in the Honkai Star Rail Fortnite collab. Wensoing revealed the leak in a February 6 post on X. The insider also uploaded what appears to be a promotional image for the upcoming HSR crossover, although it’s unclear where the picture was sourced from.
“Kafka & Blade are coming to Fortnite. Character outfits available.” There is then text at the bottom of the promo image that reads, “Hmmm… keep an eye on our upcoming social media notices for more details. Stay tuned!” More importantly, though, the leak has also reportedly revealed the release date for the Honkai Star Rail Fortnite cosmetics.
When Does Honkai Star Rail Come to Fortnite? (Release Date Explained)
Based on the leaked image, the Honkai Star Rail Fortnite release date is Thursday, February 26, 2026. Interestingly, it looks like the HSR collab will likely miss out on the Fortnite Love and Legends Valentine’s Day event season that runs all month long. At least, at the time of writing, we only have dates that go up to February 23.
The Blade & Kafka Fortnite skins will go on sale in the Fortnite Item Shop starting at 4 PM PT / 7 PM ET. However, for your convenience, here is a table that shows when the HoYoverse skins go live in each region:

What’s Included in the Honkai Star Rail Fortnite Crossover?
Finally, we currently don’t have any additional details about potential Honkai Star Rail Fortnite cosmetic items. The only thing leaked so far are the Kafka & Blade skins. However based on the official Epic Games teaser image, it wouldn’t be too surprising if we got both character’s swords as Pickaxes. Personally, I’m hoping we get a Pom-Pom sidekick.
Of course, take this latest release date leak with a grain of salt. While most Fortnite datamine leaks have been credible, they sometimes get things wrong. Take, for example, the recent KPop Demon Hunters Fortnite Wave 2 collab. Leakers said we were going to get a Derpy Sidekick, Golden Emote, and Jam Tracks. However, this no longer appears to be the case.
So until Epic Games officially announces something on their blog, it’s best to keep expectations in check. Although it does appear that this latest HSR Fortnite leak is credible, and we will be getting Blade & Kafka starting February 26.
