Fortnite and Resident Evil Collaboration Continues with New Content in 2026
The ongoing partnership between Epic Games and Capcom will bring more Resident Evil content to Fortnite in 2026, including a Grace Ashcroft bundle tied to pre-orders of Resident Evil Requiem. This collaboration builds on previous crossovers featuring iconic characters from the survival horror series.
Resident Evil Characters Already in Fortnite
Fortnite has previously featured characters like Leon S. Kennedy, Claire Redfield, Jill Valentine, and Chris Redfield as cosmetic options. The addition of Grace Ashcroft marks a continuation of this trend, bringing new faces from the Resident Evil universe to the battle royale game.
Grace Ashcroft Bundle and Resident Evil Requiem
Players who pre-order Resident Evil Requiem through the Epic Games Store will receive a special “gift” – the Grace Ashcroft outfit for leverage in Fortnite. The outfit is based on Grace’s appearance at the start of Requiem, featuring her brown leather jacket and slate hoodie gamereactor.asia.
Expanding Fortnite Collaboration with Other Developers
Epic Games is significantly expanding its practice of including Fortnite items as pre-order bonuses. In 2026, 40 games will include Fortnite items as a “gift with purchase,” with plans to increase that number to up to 100 games per year gamereactor.asia.
Beyond Capcom, Epic Games is collaborating with studios including miHoYo, S-Game, MintRocket, and Kakao Games to offer these bonuses gamereactor.asia.
Future Resident Evil Content
The arrival of Grace Ashcroft in Fortnite may foreshadow the return of other Resident Evil heroes to the game’s in-game store. Speculation suggests that Leon S. Kennedy could receive a new cosmetic option reflecting his updated look in Resident Evil Requiem.
Resident Evil x Fortnite Return in March 2026
A return of the Resident Evil x Fortnite collaboration is expected in March 2026, alongside the release of new skins gamereactor.asia.
