You can expect Game of Thrones to enter Fortnite on March 20, following recent leaks that revealed key details about the crossover. The collaboration arrives just after the launch of Chapter 7 Season 2 and adds several well-known characters from the HBO series to the game’s expanding lineup of themed content.
This crossover marks another major partnership in the current season. You will see recognizable faces from Westeros join the Fortnite island, with confirmed characters already circulating ahead of the official Item Shop release.
Fortnite confirms the Game of Thrones collaboration
Epic Games signaled the crossover with a clear “Winter is Coming” teaser, confirming that Game of Thrones is entering Fortnite. Shortly after, data miners shared decrypted looks at Jon Snow and the Night King, including matching cosmetic items.
Daenerys Targaryen’s set remains encrypted, so you will need to wait for full details. Epic also outlined special tournaments where you can unlock the Jon Snow and Night King outfits for free, along with additional in-game rewards.
Game of Thrones Fortnite collab release date and characters
You can access the Game of Thrones crossover on Friday, March 20 at 8 p.m. ET, when it goes live in the Fortnite Item Shop. The launch follows Chapter 7 Season 2 and marks the first official collaboration between the battle royale and HBO’s fantasy series.
Epic Games selected three central figures from Westeros:
- Daenerys Targaryen
- Jon Snow
- The Night King
These characters arrive with full cosmetic sets. While Epic has not revealed in-game previews, the listed items confirm themed outfits, back blings, and harvesting tools for each character.
| Character | Included Cosmetics |
|---|---|
| Jon Snow | Outfit with reactive progression, Back Bling, Pickaxe |
| Daenerys Targaryen | Outfit with two selectable styles, Back Bling, Pickaxe |
| Night King | Outfit, Back Bling, Pickaxe |
You can also expect:
- One unrevealed Glider
- Two unannounced Emotes
- The Ice and Fire Bundle, which packages every item listed above
Pricing details remain unconfirmed. Epic has not decrypted or previewed the cosmetic models yet, so you will need to wait for the Item Shop update to see final designs.
Speculation centers on a dragon-themed glider, given Daenerys’ connection to Drogon and her role in the series. Emotes could draw from memorable scenes, though no official names or animations have surfaced.
Despite earlier leaks circulating online, the collaboration proceeds as planned and launches without delay.
Player Response to the Game of Thrones Crossover
You can see mixed reactions across social media and community forums. Many players criticize recent V-Bucks price increases, yet they still show curiosity about how these Westeros characters will look and feel in-game.
Some fans question the choice to include the Night King, especially since the current season already features the Ice King as a central villain. You may view it as overlapping themes, though others argue the Night King stands as one of the franchise’s most recognizable antagonists.
Cost remains a major factor. Several players express interest but say they will skip the skins if pricing runs too high.
Key discussion points include:
- Whether character likeness rights match the actors
- If the skins justify premium pricing
- How faithfully Epic adapts iconic outfits and details
You are watching closely to see if presentation and value align. For many, strong design and fair pricing will decide whether those V-Bucks leave your account.
