Epic Games has confirmed in a new trailer that a Five Nights at Freddy’s crossover is finally coming to Fortnite. The collab will feature skins and a mode where players have to survive a night shift while fending off the animatronics. Here is when the FNAF Fortnite release date is and what the trailer reveals.
When Is FNAF Coming to Fortnite?
After years of speculation, a FNAF Fortnite collab is finally happening. Epic Games confirmed the crossover in a new teaser trailer posted on their social media accounts. The video also confirmed that a Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria POI is coming to Fortnite as part of Fortnitemares 2026.
The FNAF Fortnite release date is October 1, 2026. According to the trailer, the crossover will launch alongside the major Fortnitemares update that drops on the same morning. Epic Games has not confirmed an exact time for when the FNAF content itself will go live.
FNAF Fortnite Skins and Cosmetics
According to the trailer, we will be getting four Five Nights at Freddy’s skins based on the animatronics from the original 2014 horror title. According to dataminers, players can expect the following FNAF cosmetics:
- Freddy
- Bonnie
- Chica
- Foxy
The trailer also gives us a first look at several cosmetics. If you look closely, you can spot Chica’s Cupcake, along with robotic Freddy Fazbear and Bonnie Back Blings worn by the characters.
Is there a FNAF Fortnite Mode?
At the time of writing, a FNAF Fortnite mode has not been confirmed by Epic Games. Instead, the trailer shows what could be a potential Five Nights at Freddy’s mode where players have to survive a night shift at the Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria POI while the animatronics attack them.
One clip even shows what looks like a user controlling the animatronics, while attacking other players. But the trailer could also just be a promotional clip and not confirmation of an actual mode.
All that said, the Pizzeria might just be a POI where players can get jump scared by the classic horror characters. The trailer itself does not mention a mode, so this is just speculation. The FNAF Fortnite crossover launches on October 1, 2026 and will be apart this years Fortnitemares 2026 event.
