Fortnite fans might want to gear up for more action from the Metal Gear series, with speculations swirling about upcoming content possibly linked to the anticipated release of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. This wouldn’t be the first time the iconic franchise has made its way to the Island; Metal Gear characters first made waves in Chapter 5, Season 1 back in January 2024.
A well-known Fortnite leaker has dropped hints about another round of Metal Gear happenings on the horizon. Fortnite, renowned for its mashups featuring famous movies, comics, and games through unique skins and events, has seen gaming greats like Lara Croft, Kratos, and Doom Slayer join the fray.
Back on January 25, 2024, Hideo Kojima’s legendary Metal Gear series debuted in Fortnite with the “Sneaking Set.” This pack treated players to costumes of Solid Snake and Raiden, alongside various pickaxes, gliders, and other themed items, all inspired by the beloved Metal Gear Solid games. This collaboration sparked hopes for more team-ups between Fortnite and Konami, and now, whispers suggest that more Metal Gear goodies could be just around the corner.
The leaker Shiina, whose insights are often shared across platforms, including a post by Redditor KvasirTheOld, hinted at another Metal Gear tie-in coming soon. While specifics remain under wraps, fans speculate it could coincide with the launch of Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. Possible inclusions? Think skins for Naked Snake/Big Boss, Eva, or even The Boss. Other characters fans are buzzing about include Raiden’s cyborg form from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance and Quiet from Metal Gear Solid 5.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater revisits the story of Naked Snake, also known as Big Boss, tackling a high-stakes mission in the relentless jungle to thwart a Soviet power play. After much anticipation, the game’s release is set for August 28, 2025.
While nothing is set in stone yet, this proposed Fortnite collaboration would be prime timing for Konami to push Metal Gear Solid Delta. Meanwhile, Fortnite is rumored to be gearing up for another epic crossover, this time with Fast and Furious icons Dom Toretto and Han Lue ready to charge onto the Island, possibly along with new Iron Man skins and a nod to Avatar characters.
Fortnite continues to expand its universe, offering players a diverse array of experiences from concerts to creator hubs featuring everything from racing to survival adventures. Whether you’re vying for the Victory Royale in classic Battle Royale or getting creative with Fortnite Zero Build, the game’s dynamic environments ensure no two matches are ever the same. Released in July 2017 and powered by Unreal Engine 5, Fortnite keeps reinventing itself, making it a staple for gaming enthusiasts worldwide.
