Fortnite's official team announced on September 27 that a collaboration with ScottGames' Five Nights at Freddy's begins on October 1. The released promo shows scenes inside Freddy Fazbear's Pizza and the animatronics, including what appears to be Chica swinging a pickaxe and Bonnie. Posts on X include reactions such as "The best collaboration has finally become reality" and "The quality is insanely high."
The promo runs through the recognizable beats: the pizzeria interior, the animatronics closing in, Chica with a pickaxe and Bonnie in frame. The tie-in lands at the start of October, timed to Fortnite's Halloween stretch, with the reveal attached to a Fortnitemares 2026 video.
Reaction on X, as the announcement notes, has been warm, with posts calling it the best collaboration and praising the quality. The series itself has been running since its 2014 debut, built on the night shift and the cameras that watch it.
