Fortnite's Bold K-Pop Demon Hunters Crossover: New Game Mode, Mythic Items, and K-Pop Themes Arrive

This crossover redefines gameplay, altering round structure, strategies, and the flow of each match.

3rd of October 2025

Fortnite, home to massive collaborations, has just unveiled its most ambitious partnership with Netflix’s #1 animated movie, K-Pop Demon Hunters. This crossover brought new content to the game including better music, action, and fantasy elements, which is expected to make players return to the game.

Unlike many previous updates, this crossover won’t just drop a bunch of new skins into the shop, but will instead transform how rounds are played and constructed, change how strategies work, and transform how games flow moment to moment. 

Demon Rush to transform the game mode

The main attraction of this update is the addition of the new Demon Rush mode. Instead of classic battle royale, players will instead fight against waves upon waves of enemies advancing toward the players as they move forward. Players will be able to receive even more shards as they defeat opponents, that can be traded in for special gears from the shop. Each round will contain a specific mythic chest where one can test out new tools.

The mythic items are designed to look like they came directly from the Demon Hunter world. A sword that unleashes rapid combos and energy blasts will bring close combat to a whole new level. Also, a teleporting mask which enables players to disappear and reappear across the map will also be added to this new update. This will open up tricky maneuvers and ambushes. 

A golden bubble shield will give full coverage from projectiles while surrounding players with the film’s track. Finally, a spicy bowl of ramyeon that revives health and shields at the same time while making the user faster, stronger, and deadlier for a short period of time. Each of these items introduces a new way to play the game.

The excitement for this update is more than just new combat content. Epic Games, the founder of Fortnite, has launched a wide range of K-Pop Demon Hunter themes in the shop that will allow fans to bring their characters right into the fight. The introduction of event quests include free rewards like a custom loading screen and emoticons which ensures that all players can join the game without spending money.
