Fortnitemares is one of the most anticipated yearlyFortniteevents, which takes place around Halloween every year, and the collaboration withFriday the 13thwas heavily speculated for the past few weeks.
Fortnitehas been on a streak of big collaborations lately. The ongoing season features a major partnership with Disney, adding numerous Marvel characters toFortnite. While fans are already having a great time inFortnitewith the superhero mythic weapons, there is a rather disappointing update about an upcoming collaboration.
In a new tweet on Twitter, popularFortniteleaker ShiinaBR reveals a disappointing leak about the upcoming Fortnitemares event. They add that Jason, from the popularFriday the 13thfranchise, will not be a part of the Fortnitemares 2024 collaborations. Several leakers had previously suggested that Jason would be featured in the game as part of theHalloween-themedFortniteevent, but it seems the plans have fallen through. However, as is the case with all leaks, this should also be taken with a grain of salt. There is still a possibility of Jason featuring in the game, but considering that the leaker is quite reliable, the chances look quite bleak at this point.
Fortnite Fans Are Not Happy With Fortnitemares Not Featuring Jason from Friday the 13th
Over on Twitter, fans are not at all happy with the leak, considering there was quite a lot of build-up that suggested acollab was on the way as part ofFortnite’sFortnitemares 2024. Notably, the Twitter handle of Jason Universe had replied to fans asking for a collaboration withFortniteusing the two-eyes emoji, which led many to believe that it would be a part of Fortnitemares. One fan noted that the top left part of the map was fitting for Jason, and the collab possibly being canceled is a huge missed opportunity.
On the flip side, some fans are still happy thatFortnite’sFortnitemares 2024 might feature a collaboration withSaw. In a recent update, players found an old TV in the Doom Castle attic displaying static. A subsequent datamine revealed that the TV will possibly switch to an image ofSaw’s Billy the Puppet, which almost confirmed the collab. Many think that theFriday the 13thcollab being canceled could possibly pave the way for the arrival of Ghostface from theScreamfranchise, but there are no leaks about that so far. SomeFortnitefans still think that Jason’s popularity makes him the best candidate for this event, so it remains to be seen whether the much-anticipated collab will materialize or not.
