Fortnite Confirms Squid Game Crossover Event: All You Need To Know!

Epic Games has confirmed that Fortnite will step into the chilling world of Netflix’s Squid Game with a crossover event launching in Creative Mode on June 27, 2025. The update promises suspense-filled gameplay and an eerie atmosphere, making it one of Fortnite’s boldest summer releases.

Teaser Campaign Sparks Buzz

The promotion began with a cryptic teaser as Epic shared a mysterious phone number, mirroring the recruitment style from Squid Game. “Players who dialed in were greeted with an ominous audio message,” which confirmed the official release date and immediately set the community abuzz.

Official Assets in Creative Mode

Unlike earlier fan-made recreations, Epic will provide official assets. Players can look forward to prebuilt maps, themed NPCs, detailed environment sets, and mechanics for iconic challenges like Red Light, Green Light and the Glass Bridge. This marks the first fully supported Squid Game experience within Fortnite’s Creative Mode.

Cosmetics and Rewards Expected

While Epic has not yet revealed skins or emotes, its track record suggests themed cosmetics are likely. Fans may soon be able to wear the infamous Squid Game uniforms, masks, and unlock new emotes. Reward-based challenges tied to the event are also anticipated.

Competitive Potential with UEFN

Thanks to Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN), creators may design advanced maps, potentially introducing ranked mini-games or tournament-style competitions with real prizes.

A Month of Big Crossovers

The Squid Game event is part of a packed June lineup, which also features rumored collaborations with One-Punch Man, Superman, and Robin. Epic recently leaned into pop culture with Father’s Day skins featuring Bob Belcher, Hank Hill, and Cleveland Brown.

With suspense-driven gameplay and competitive potential, the Squid Game crossover is shaping up to be one of Fortnite’s most ambitious Creative Mode updates to date.
