Fortnite is once again preparing for a massive collaboration, and this time, it’s with none other than Avatar, James Cameron’s groundbreaking film franchise. Following several successful crossovers, the Fortnite x Avatar collaboration promises to bring iconic elements from the world of Pandora to the battle royale.
Here’s everything we know about this exciting event, from the release date to the leaked cosmetics.
Release Date: When Does the Avatar Collab Arrive?
Leakers, including the reliable HYPEX, have confirmed that the Fortnite x Avatar crossover will take place in the upcoming update. This follows the most recent Fortnite patch released on January 31, which marked the end of Chapter 6, Season 1. Fans can expect the Avatar crossover to launch before Season 2 rolls out on February 21, 2025.
With the update just around the corner, players can look forward to the Avatar cosmetics making their debut in the Fortnite Item Shop during one of the upcoming rotations. Given the accuracy of leakers when it comes to Shop resets, further details about the collaboration should be revealed soon.
What Will the Fortnite x Avatar Collaboration Feature?
According to sources like HYPEX, the Fortnite x Avatar collaboration will feature two key cosmetic items: Jake Sully and Neytiri Banshee Gliders. The collaboration is expected to include these two iconic items from the Avatar universe, offering players a chance to soar through the skies on the majestic creatures of Pandora.
While the Gliders are confirmed, it’s safe to assume that both Jake Sully and Neytiri will also receive Fortnite skins. These two central characters from the Avatar films are likely to be fully realized in-game, allowing players to embody the heroes of Pandora.
Disney’s Ongoing Partnership with Fortnite
This collaboration is part of Disney’s ongoing partnership with Fortnite, which has previously brought characters from the Star Wars universe, Marvel, and more into the game. Given the immense success of both Avatar films—each grossing over $1 billion worldwide—this crossover is poised to be a significant milestone for both brands.
Disney and Fortnite would be remiss to only release the two confirmed Gliders, so it’s highly likely that additional cosmetics, such as themed emotes, back bling, and more, will be added as part of this collaboration. As always, players will have to wait for the official release to know the full extent of the crossover.

While the full details are still emerging, this partnership is a perfect fit for both Fortnite and Disney, promising exciting new content for fans. Stay tuned for updates from Epic Games and the latest leaks to get all the details as they become available.
