Fortnite Kicking Off 2025 with a Major Blast

Chapter 6 of Fortnite has officially landed, introducing a slew of exciting updates that are shaking up the game like never before. This season not only ushers in captivating new moves and a Japan-themed map, but also signals a transformative phase for this enduring multiplayer juggernaut. With a wealth of fresh content to explore as we wrap up the year, 2025 seems poised to be a landmark moment. Keeping Fortnite’s flair for high-profile collaborations alive, fans can eagerly anticipate the arrival of Godzilla as a playable skin in the upcoming year.

The revamped map and the new Fortnite Battle Pass for Chapter 6 Season 1 are infused with rich Japanese aesthetics. Whether you’re most thrilled about the Battle Pass rewards featuring original characters or the exciting crossovers with major franchises like Big Hero 6’s Baymax, there’s a treasure trove of spectacular cosmetics to discover. Among these, the Godzilla Evolved skin stands out, located on the Battle Pass’s bonus page. Though confirmed as a Battle Pass reward, this skin won’t become available to players until the dawn of 2025.

Heading into the new year with a colossal roar, Godzilla takes center stage on January 17 at 9 AM ET, letting players unleash its iconic destructive power in game. Since Godzilla’s cinematic debut in 1954, the franchise has grown into a significant cultural phenomenon in Japan, making this skin an ideal fit for Chapter 6 Season 1. With Godzilla’s global fanbase, its introduction is set to be a landmark Fortnite release that players worldwide are eager to embrace.

This chapter’s Battle Pass comes with a slightly higher price tag, costing players 1,000 V-Bucks compared to the previous 950. The Godzilla skin is sure to be a highlight, but snagging it will involve finishing a variety of Battle Royale quests once it becomes available.

With Godzilla setting the bar sky-high, Epic Games has crafted an ambitious agenda for 2025, promising even more exhilarating skins and updates. The addition of Godzilla serves as a prelude to what’s next, and there’s already buzz about another iconic movie monster joining the fun. Reports from the reputable leaker ShiinaBR hint that King Kong could be making his Fortnite debut soon. Although Epic Games hasn’t confirmed this rumor, it aligns perfectly with the existing Godzilla theme. The Godzilla Evolved skin is inspired by the most recent film, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, fueling speculation that King Kong might not be far behind.

If King Kong joins the fray, it would elevate the game to a whole new level, creating one of the most epic crossovers in Fortnite history. The leak didn’t clarify whether King Kong would appear as a skin or an NPC, adding a layer of intrigue about his potential role in the game.

Despite the innovations of Chapter 5, Fortnite consistently manages to up the ante, as Epic Games intriguingly continues to push boundaries. As rumors swirl about what’s next for Fortnite, it will be fascinating to see how subsequent updates follow the grand spectacle of Godzilla’s inclusion. With such major crossovers on the horizon, Fortnite’s momentum shows no signs of slowing down, and its diverse world of battle experiences will undoubtedly pull more players into the fray.
