South Park Fortnite Confirmed to Come Soon

The South Park Fortnite skins have longed been rumoured, now we’ve gotten confirmation from Epic. In a little tease posted, they’ve revealed the release date of the upcoming Fortnite collab. Now, we’ve also seen a leak of a trailer for the collab. Revealing the South Park Fortnite skins and more.

At the moment, Fortnite is in a waiting period. The Fortnite Winterfest event has ended. But it’s still a couple of days until we get to the next update and some fresh content. We’ve had some rumoured collabs lately like Chainsaw Man. However, Epic has confirmed one long-awaited collaboration coming in the next patch. The South Park Fortnite skins are coming. or if the leaks are to be believed, we are getting proper skins! Not just the sidekicks talked about in the early leaks.

It’s a collaboration that’s been talked about for a long time now. Prominent leakers said it was coming for a while. With the Sidekicks feature being especially important for it. Between this and Spongebob, for some reason, it feels like the Paramount collabs have gotten expansive since we got the companion feature. This is what we’re expecting with the South Park Fortnite skins:

South Park Fortnite Skins Coming Soon

South Park Fortnite Skins are coming with the next Fortnite update. We’ve found out with a teaser posted to their official social media. Showcasing a South Park character playing Fortnite.

Weirdly, the version of Fortnite on the screen seems to feature a game mode that isn’t even available yet, other than that it’s confirmation that we’re getting Fortnite South Park items. With this teaser, it seems like Butters will be available as part of the collab.

The screen also shows a five-person team. Which is pretty much the only format we haven’t had, outside of Blitz. The Five-stack mode there was pretty messy. But it could be fun in the more standard game modes.

Outside of that, we haven’t learned a lot from this teaser. But we got a better look at the Fortnite collab in a leaked trailer.

New Skins – It’s Mechs Again

The big mystery ahead of the trailer leak was what characters were skins, and which were sidekicks. With eaely leaks indicating it was focused on sidekicks overall. However, with the trailer we’ve got a clear look now. These are the items we’ve seen:

Stan

Kyle

Kenny

Cartman

Butters

Towelie Sidekick

It seems like they’re all coming as skins properly, not just Fortnite sidekicks! The main characters and Butters are all coming into the game as proper skins. Which means some working around hitboxes.

While Epic has added some differently sized skins over the years, South Park children are a bit too small skin. So they’ve gone to their favorite fix, a mech.

These have made more or less sense for different characters. The South Park ones look okay. Cartman has an Awesome-O themed one. Butters is dressed ads Professor Chaos. It does mean you’ll mainly see the mechs when you’re playing with these skins though.

South Park Fortnite Skins Release Date

One thing that’s usually a mystery, is when the collab skins will come. Since we don’t normally get a release date, they just kind of show up in the item shop. This time, Epic has given a solid release date in the teaser! It’s coming on September 9th.

It’s part of a bigger change with how they tease collabs. In the past, we got leaks that were semi-official looks at what was coming. But once they were in the game, we had no idea when they’d actually arrive in the item shop. This Chapter, Epic has started giving dates. or some, teasers like they did with South Park today. We normally get a proper look at the items once they’re trailer for the week in the item shop arrives though.

The South Park Fortnite release date is when Epic’s next update to Fortnite is due. The game has been off for Winterfest, and this will be our first update back. Once downtime is over, the South Park Fortnite items will probably be in the item shop already!
