The gaming world is abuzz with excitement after Epic Games dropped the bombshell. Further adding to the thrill of the announcement, the epic partnership comes bearing a bewitching add-on.
Harry Potter and Fortnite are collaborating on new skins
Fortnite is teaming up with Harry Potter for a much-awaited crossover, bringing Hogwarts magic to the Battle Royale game. Adding to the hype, Epic Games also confirmed that players will get to choose their favorite Hogwarts house – Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, or Hufflepuff. The crossover is set to provide customization options, including house-themed robes, scarves, and sweaters.
The announcement comes ahead of Winterfest, Fortnite’s yearly festive event. With trusted leaks hinting at some major crossovers, the 2025 version is set to be one of the biggest editions so far. Per usual, players will receive gifts daily. Moreover, a cosy cabin will be available for fans to visit every day and open free rewards.
Besides the customizable house outfits, Epic Games dropped another magical surprise at The Game Awards 2025. To celebrate Hogwarts Legacy being free and accessible on the Epic Games Store, the video-game company is giving away a free Chocolate Frog Back Bling.
A confirmation post on Fortnite’s X backed the claim and doubled the excitement among fans and gamers alike. Dataminers have also confirmed the addition of a Broom Mythic item during the event, allowing players to explore Hogwarts’ magical skies like a prime Quidditch player.
Potterheads are going wild, all excited to watch the magic realm collide and merge with the gaming world. Fans took to social media, expressing their thrill and intrigue about the upcoming collaboration.
“That chocolate frog is living rent free on my avatar! y’all better recognize!”, one X user tweeted. “I dig the chocolate frog vibe”, another resonated.
“Excited for the Harry Potter skin drop in Fortnite’s Winterfest love that Gryffindor scarf on the character!”, another fan wrote. “Hooray! Harry Potter! I hope I can change the House Scarf!” another concurred.
