Whether it's Marvel in Chapter 2 Season 4 (and beyond), or the dozens of other amazing collaborations from Alien to Star Wars in Season 5, it's hard to actually think what section of pop culture Fortnite hasn't tried to add.

The one huge genre missing off their collaboration list is anime, and Epic might be looking to out-do themselves by getting the heavyweights on board right from the start.

Viz Media, TV Tokyo
Naruto in Fortnite? It's more likely than you think.

Dexerto says "According to Fortnite dataminer Twea, the giant developer behind Fortnite has penned a deal with Shueisha. The Japanese publishing giant is known for producing the iconic Shonen Jump magazine, and is a part-owner of western manga distributor Viz Media.

This opens up Fortnite to a huge catalogue of titles ranging from Demon Slayer to Naruto, Jujutsu Kaisen to Dragon Ball, My Hero Academia to Hunter x Hunter, and so much more."

If the collaboration is to be true, then there are so many possibilities for future Fortnite collaborations in the anime space.

"It comes after Epic's recent collaboration with DC Comics to publish a crossover comic book series featuring Batman venturing across the Zero Point. The potential for a collaboration on a similar scale with Shueisha is certainly there."

Twea did not provide any other details regarding what titles will exactly be involved in the deal, or when players can expect a look. With Season 7 expected to finish sometime in/near September, there could still be a wait for anime to truly take over Fortnite.

But, if you ever wanted to drop onto the Island as Tanjiro, Goku, or Naruto, you might not have a much longer wait.
