What Is Zero Hour About?
Epic’s cinematic teaser reveals an epic crossover battle against Chapter 6’s tentacled antagonist. Think Avengers: Endgame meets Ready Player One—every character from this year’s collaborations unites for one massive confrontation that will reshape Fortnite’s island forever.
Confirmed Collabs Appearing
- Star Wars: Characters from the June Star Wars season return for galactic backup against the looming threat.
- Godzilla x Kong: Massive titans join the fight, bringing kaiju-scale destruction to the battlefield.
- Halo: Master Chief and Spartans answer the call with their legendary combat prowess.
- Superman: The Man of Steel flies in as part of the superhero coalition defending reality.

The Seven Return
Fortnite‘s original superhero group hasn’t been seen since Chapter 3’s conclusion. Zero Hour marks their comeback, though speculation swirls about whether we’ll see the original versions—particularly The Foundation (previously voiced by Dwayne Johnson)—or alternate reality variants like previous Paradigm iterations.
Chapter 7 Teases
Kill Bill and Back to the Future collaborations are confirmed to play roles during Zero Hour, previewing what’s coming in Chapter 7. These unexpected additions hint at Epic’s ambitious plans for the next chapter.
Pre-Show Entertainment
Arriving 40 minutes early grants access to pre-show activities. Previous events featured elaborate mini-games like the X-Wing vs TIE Fighter space combat during the Star Wars finale, so expect something special.
