There’s no doubt that Fortnite is one of the most legendary video games of all time and is the face of the Battle Royale genre. As Epic Games continues to add new content, they’ve managed to build solid relationships with giants such as Disney and Warner Bros and bring players crossovers that left their mark.
Recently, it was confirmed that famous artists Karol G and Snoop Dog would be making their way into the game soon. Many thought that Epic Games had peaked with these upcoming crossovers, but they aren’t done yet! New reports suggest one of the most famous pop bands, NewJeans, is making its way to the Battle Royale soon.
Kpop Group is NewJeans is Finally Coming to Fortnite
Fortnite‘s roadmap for its upcoming crossovers was leaked only a few months ago. At that time, we learned about the collaboration between the game and artists such as Billie Eilish, Karol G, and Snoop Dogg.
On top of all that, gamers also learned that a K-pop group would also make its appearance in the Battle Royale. At that time, gamers were convinced that it could be none other than BLACKPINK, but various insiders confirmed that the band would not be joining the game.
However, one of the most reputable leakers, Jorge_Most, has now confirmed that the group coming to the game would be none other than NewJeans!
If you’re unfamiliar, the group is known for its casual girl-next-door aesthetic. Their music is popular among different age groups due to the fact it’s reminiscent of the late 90s and early 2000s.
The group comprises Mini, Hanni, Haerin, Danielle, and Hyein. They’ve delivered many chart-smashing hits such as Bubble Gum, Super Shy, and OMG!
It’s not a surprise seeing such a popular group make its way into the game. Fortnite Festival is pretty much known among gamers for its phenomenal collaborations, including the likes of The Weeknd, Lady Gaga, and Billie Eilish. The NewsJeans crossover is destined to be memorable if it doesn’t get canned.
When is NewJeans Coming to Fortnite?
According to the latest leaks backed up by reputable insiders, the Korean group will come to the special game mode in December 2024. That said, Epic Games might announce the crossover before that. We’ll definitely get an update via in-game banners if that ends up happening.

With the NewsJeans crossover, fans expect new Fortnite skins, jam tracks, live events, and features on the map. There’s a chance that Epic Games could bless us with a concert or a limited-time event, which ended up happening with Metallica’s live event. These concerts are an excellent way to allow fans to experience their favorite musicians in a new way.
Considering the hype around the leaked crossover, we might also see some additions to Festival Battle Stage mode. Players will be able to battle it out against their opponents while jamming to their favorite NewJeans songs! There’s nothing better than this.
