Description

Epic Games is once again expanding the universe of Fortnite, the globally recognized battle royale phenomenon, with its latest collaboration: a Scooby-Doo-themed Halloween event.

Since its launch, Fortnite has continually evolved through innovative content updates, frequent crossovers, and high-profile partnerships.

Available on major platforms such as the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, Fortnite’s reach ensures fans have access to fresh content that celebrates both classic and contemporary pop culture icons. The newly announced Scooby-Doo collaboration is timed to coincide with Halloween, bringing iconic characters from one of animation’s most beloved series into the Fortnite universe.

Epic Games confirmed that Scooby-Doo-themed skins, reminiscent of the original animated series, will become available starting October 31.

The official rollout will be synced with the in-game seasonal update at that time, allowing players to don skins inspired by memorable figures such as Scooby-Doo and Mystery Inc. A representative from Epic Games noted the company’s continued commitment to engaging fans through globally recognized partnerships.

According to the statement, Epic Games aims to deliver seasonal content that resonates with both long-time players and newcomers.

The inclusion of Scooby-Doo, a franchise celebrating over five decades of popularity, is expected to delight audiences eager for nostalgic in-game experiences. Since Fortnite arrived on Nintendo Switch in 2018, the platform has seen consistent updates alongside other versions, ensuring parity in both content drops and gameplay features.

The game’s ever-expanding library of cosmetic items and characters—supported through regular events and the Nintendo eShop—has played a critical role in retaining its substantial player base.

The addition of Scooby-Doo skins underscores Epic Games’ strategy of integrating culturally significant properties, fostering continued player engagement, and enhancing the community’s seasonal event celebrations. For players on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, the Scooby-Doo-themed event will be accessible with the standard Fortnite update cycle.

Fans are encouraged to check for updates on the Nintendo eShop and through official Fortnite social channels leading up to the October 31 release.

With over 400 million registered users worldwide and a history of record-breaking collaborations, Fortnite continues to set the industry standard for live-service gaming experiences.
