Fortnite Adds Godzilla in Major Update This Week

Fortnite is welcoming the King of Monsters, Godzilla, to its Island as part of the Version 33.20 update, set to launch on January 14, 2025. This exciting collaboration introduces Godzilla as a towering NPC boss, with hints that King Kong may also appear as part of the Monsterverse-themed event.

The update will go live after scheduled server downtime, which begins at 4 AM PT/7 AM ET/12 PM GMT, as reported by Dexerto. A recent trailer shared on X showcases a massive Godzilla stomping through the Fortnite world, leaving destruction in his wake. Observant fans also noticed a King Kong decal in the footage, sparking speculation about his involvement in the event.

For Battle Pass owners, the update will introduce two Godzilla-themed skins inspired by his “Evolved” form from Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire. These skins will be available starting January 17, giving players the chance to embody the legendary Kaiju in battle. Fans are already speculating about what other Godzilla designs could appear in future updates, expanding the Monsterverse content further.

Godzilla’s arrival continues Fortnite’s tradition of bringing larger-than-life characters to the game. Over the years, players have faced off against massive foes like Galactus and The Nothing, and this latest crossover adds another epic challenge to the mix. While the exact nature of Godzilla’s role in the game hasn’t been confirmed, his destructive rampage hints at an exciting new gameplay dynamic.

There’s also growing excitement about what this collaboration means for Fortnite’s future. Alongside rumors of more Godzilla-themed content, fans are speculating about crossovers with other franchises, including Devil May Cry and additional TMNT characters.
