When is My Hero Academia coming to Fortnite? Deku & All Might release dates

The question: "When is My Hero Academia coming to Fortnite?" is more or less the topic on everyone's mind at the moment. Since Deku was showcased in the Chapter 4 Season 1 trailer, otakus have not been able to contain their excitement.

Although not everyone knows exactly who he is, seeing him blow a hole through the building is enough to get anyone hyped. A Pickaxe/Harvesting Tool with a lot of similarities to All Might from My Hero Academia was also spotted in the trailer.

Considering that Epic Games brings in multiple characters, items, and weapons during major collaborations, he will undoubtedly be added in as well.

Sadly, there's no conclusive answer available at the moment regarding when Deku and All Might are coming to Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1, and there's nothing in the files to suggest a probable timeline either. Despite the exact details not being known, there is a speculative date, and it's closer than most might imagine.

My Hero Academia may be coming to Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 in December

Although leakers and Epic Games are yet to reveal a release date for the My Hero Academia collaboration, things may kick off in mid-December. This is based on the fact that Season 6 Episode 11: "Dabi's Dance" will premiere on December 10, 2022.

Given how the developers are known to sync their in-game releases with real-world premiers, this matches the timeline. Nevertheless, this does not mean that the collaboration can't occur before the episode goes live.

However, taking into consideration that Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 has just been released, Epic Games will not want to flood the game with new content. Furthermore, while mid-December will be the perfect time for a My Hero Academia, Winterfest 2022 will also kick off around that time as well.

With that said, it's left to be seen how the developers approach this conundrum. With My Hero Academia currently trending on socials, striking while the iron is hot will have a huge impact.

Expected cosmetics and items for the Fortnite x My Hero Academia collaboration

As mentioned, Deku will more than likely be featured as an in-game skin. He will be listed in the item shop alongside All Might. The Pickaxe/Harvesting Tool bearing All Might's color pattern, which was spotted in the trailer, will undoubtedly be a part of the cosmetic set as well.

In addition to these two characters, others such as All For One and Dabi may also be featured as skins. However, with multiple choices involved, it's anyone's guess as to who makes the cut. That said, much like other anime collaborations, they will cost a considerable amount of V-Bucks.

On that note, the special attack used by Deku in the trailer will also feature as a time-limited weapon in the game. If it works as shown in the cinematics, players will be able to punch holes through walls and break apart structures with ease. However, the intensity and scale of the attack will no doubt be toned down to keep things more grounded.
