Another unexpected crossover is hitting Fortnite, and this one is already turning heads across the community.
Fortnite just dropped one of its wildest crossovers yet, and it already feels like pure chaos in the best way. Epic Games is bringing characters from South Park into the battle royale, letting players drop into matches with a vibe that is very much true to the show.
Cartman And His Gang Land On The Island
The heart of the crossover is the lineup of South Park characters you can play as. Eric Cartman, Stan Marsh, Kyle Broflovski and Kenny McCormick are all available as Fortnite skins, each one instantly recognizable and full of personality. There’s even a twist with Butters showing up as Professor Chaos, which is precisely the kind of absurd energy this collab needs.
PREPARE. FOR. CHAOS.

These outfits make you feel like you’re dropping into Fortnite through a South Park filter. It is goofy and immediately fun when you land and start running around.
What To Expect From The Crossover
Fortnite is leaning into the South Park theme with a bunch of actual in‑game items that make the crossover feel more interactive. There’s the Stick of Truth mythic weapon, which gives you a powerful melee option inspired by the show, and consumables like Cheesy Poofs and Finger Bangs, bringing a bit of South Park humor directly into matches. The crossover also comes with a free mini pass you can progress through by playing, so you can unlock themed rewards without spending anything.
The event goes live on January 9, 2026, and stays in the game through February 5, so you have plenty of time to mess around with the new gear and see how wild things get.
