It's 2026, and the only thing more chaotic than a Fortnite endgame circle is the list of potential crossovers Epic Games is apparently considering. A recent survey, which reads more like a fever dream of pop culture, has surfaced, suggesting that the battle royale's vault of skins could one day include everything from a theoretical sitcom star to legendary video game bounty hunters. It seems Epic's mantra has officially become: "In Fortnite we trust, and in collabs we must." The game's identity is now so intertwined with these partnerships that players are constantly asking, "What's next, buddy?"

The Survey Says... Wait, That?!

Leaked details from a late 2024 survey, still making waves in 2026, revealed a staggering 91 suggestions for potential collaborations. The list is a wild mix of the highly anticipated and the utterly baffling. While ideas like a Fortnite x Elden Ring event or adding Arthur Morgan from Red Dead Redemption have been fan favorites for years, the survey also tossed in some serious curveballs. Imagine dropping into the Battle Royale not as a super-soldier, but as... Sheldon Cooper from Young Sheldon. Talk about a Big Bang in the lobby! The list showed a surprising focus on sitcoms, name-dropping classics like The Simpsons, Mad About You, and Will & Grace. After the game somehow made a collaboration with Skibidi Toilet work, the community's reaction is basically, "Hey, nothing's off the table anymore."

Gaming's Greatest Hits (And Misses?)

The survey wasn't all about TV land, oh no. It had its eyes firmly on the prize of gaming icons. A consistent and loud demand from fans is for Nintendo to finally play ball. Since Epic teamed up with Doom and Halo, players have been begging for Samus Aran from Metroid to suit up. She'd be a perfect fit, appealing to both Nintendo stans and sci-fi shooter fans. The survey also mentioned:

• Fire Emblem as an entire series suggestion. Imagine Marth leading a squad in Tilted Towers. That's a strategy game right there!

• Pikachu making the list, because of course it did. Who wouldn't want to Thunder Shock their way to a Victory Royale?

The big but here is Nintendo's historical reluctance. Past talks reportedly hit a wall over platform exclusivity. Yet, the dream persists. As one fan probably put it, "Seeing Mario and Master Chief emote together would be my ultimate fan service, no cap."

Brands, Bikes, and Barbie

Epic's thinking extends beyond characters to entire brands and vehicles, aiming to make the in-game world feel more... well, real, in a totally surreal way. The survey suggested vehicle partnerships with Dodge, Harley-Davidson, and BMW Motorrad. Cruising around the island on a branded bike? That's one way to add some extra vroom to your gameplay. Other brand ideas were even more eclectic:

• Barbie: A Barbie skin line is practically a license to print V-Bucks. It's life in plastic, it's fantastic!

• SCP Foundation: Now that would be a creepy and cool thematic season. Containing anomalies while avoiding the Storm? Sign us up.

The Collabs That Were and The Dreams That Live On

Some survey ideas have already come to fruition, proving these documents aren't just for show. Characters like Padmé Amidala and Cruella De Vil have already graced the Item Shop. The successful Cyberpunk 2077 collab brought Johnny Silverhand and V to the island, though the survey noted fans still wanted the male version of V and characters from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. The lesson? Epic is listening, but the community's appetite is insatiable.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the collaboration landscape from the survey's perspective:

Category	Example Suggestions	Fan Vibe
TV & Film	Young Sheldon, The Simpsons, Barbie	"Wait, seriously? ...Okay, maybe."
Gaming Icons	Samus Aran (Metroid), Fire Emblem, Elden Ring	"PLEASE. TAKE MY MONEY."
Brands & Vehicles	Dodge, Harley-Davidson, SCP Foundation	"Huh. That could be low-key awesome."
Already Done	Cyberpunk 2077, Star Wars (Padmé)	"More, please!"

What Does It All Mean?

In 2026, Fortnite is less a single game and more a living, breathing cultural hub. These surveys show Epic Games is constantly crowdsourcing the next big thing, willing to explore every niche and mainstream idea. The goal is clear: keep the hype train chugging along by making the impossible seem possible. Whether it's a legendary Pokemon or a physicist from a sitcom, the message to players is: Your wildest crossover dreams are on our radar. So, keep those suggestions coming. After all, in the world of Fortnite, the only limit is imagination... and probably a few stubborn licensing agreements. 🤣

So, what's your dream collab? A Kingdom Hearts event that breaks everyone's brain? Final Fantasy heroes summoning Ifrit? Or just riding a Harley through Retail Row? The future's wide open, and Epic's got a survey for that.
