Epic Games Makes Fortnite x One Piece Official, Mini-Season Starts November 1

After plenty of rumors, Epic Games has finally made it official: One Piece is coming to Fortnite. The official Fortnite account on X posted three straw hat emojis on October 24, along with a short teaser showing the Going Merry, the Straw Hat Pirates’ first ship, sailing out of the fog before a joint Fortnite and One Piece logo appears. The collaboration is tied to Treasure Hunters, a pirate-themed mini-season that kicks off on November 1 and closes out Chapter 7 before Chapter 8 arrives. The same account also posted “The greatest adventure of all! 11.1” that day to tease the start date.

It looks like that’s about all Epic has shared so far. There’s no word on which characters will show up as skins, what’s coming to the Item Shop, or whether the content goes live on day one or later in the season. People were quick to point out that the ship in the teaser looks like the anime version, not the one from Netflix’s live-action series, so the collab will probably lean on the anime, though Epic hasn’t said so. Treasure Hunters also looks set to bring Pirate Miku and Kasane Teto, based on teasers from their official accounts. Of course, this isn’t the first time the Straw Hats have touched Fortnite. Netflix and Enthusiast Gaming put out a One Piece Creative map back in 2023 to promote the live-action show, though it had no skins. Players can expect more details as November 1 gets closer.
