Fortnite’s legendary collaborations continue to dominate the gaming world, and the latest rumors suggest that the iconic 1990s animated series King of the Hill could be next in line. Leaked information points to this nostalgic crossover debuting in early 2025, perfectly timed with the anticipated reboot of the beloved sitcom.
The Leak: King of the Hill Comes to Fortnite
The rumor originated from FNBRIntel on X (formerly Twitter) and quickly spread across Fortnite leak forums, including the subreddit r/FortniteLeaks, where it garnered significant attention. Trusted leakers like ShiinaBR further fueled speculation, making the collaboration seem increasingly likely.
The discussion has since shifted to what the collaboration could include, from skins and emotes to voice lines and cosmetics inspired by the Arlen, Texas crew.
What Fans Want in the Fortnite x King of the Hill Crossover
Skins and Cosmetics
Players are eager to see characters like Hank, Peggy, Bobby, and Dale Gribble as playable skins. Some highlights from fan discussions include:
- Hank Hill: Fans insist his model should include his infamous “diminished gluteal syndrome” (flat butt) for accuracy. However, others jokingly suggest Fortnite could “fix” Hank by giving him a more pronounced posterior.
- Bobby Hill: Requests for Bobby’s skin often mention his purse as a pickaxe and a nod to his famous line: “That’s my purse! I don’t know you!” from the iconic self-defense episode.
- Dale Gribble: Dale’s “pocket sand” move is a top-requested emote, reflecting his conspiracy theorist antics.
Emotes and Traversals
Fans have flooded forums with creative ideas for emotes:
- Drinking Beer: A synced emote with Hank, Bill, Dale, and Boomhauer sipping beers and saying, “Yup.” (Though the beers might be swapped for Fortnite’s Chug Splash or shield potions.)
- Lawnmower Traversal Emote: A tribute to Hank’s love of lawn care, perfectly suited for Fortnite’s traversal mechanics.
- Pocket Sand: A throwback to Dale’s signature attack, where players could toss sand at opponents.
- “That’s My Purse!” Emote: Bobby yelling this famous line as part of his moveset.
Why the Timing Makes Sense
The rumored collaboration coincides with the King of the Hill reboot, reportedly set to launch in early 2025. Fans of the animated series have been eagerly anticipating its return since the reboot was first announced in 2023. Pairing the Fortnite crossover with the show’s release would boost excitement for both.
Conclusion
Whether or not you’re a longtime fan of King of the Hill, this rumored Fortnite collaboration is already generating massive hype. From iconic skins to nostalgic emotes, the possibilities for this crossover are endless—and fans are ready to see their favorite Arlen residents in the battle royale.
