Fortnite Reveals Hollow Knight Collaboration, But There’s a Catch

Players have enjoyed a hot streak of unexpected Fortnite collaborations throughout 2026, yet despite massive early enthusiasm for the reveal of Hollow Knight finally debuting in the hit battle royale game, many have raised an eyebrow at the cost of the indie metroidvania title’s bundle. Fortnite generally follows a standardized pricing model for its collaboration skins, sidekicks, weapons, back blings, and more, but the Hollow Knight bundle in particular has caught a number of longtime fans by surprise.

When Fortnite first released back in 2017, very few could have foreseen the powerhouse franchise that it has become. Epic Games has continued to expand and develop the game over the years, most often through seasonal updates, which have often featured major crossovers with hit franchises like Star Wars and Marvel. For 2026, Epic Games has been on a run of Fortnite crossovers with other video games, including Spyro the Dragon and Sonic the Hedgehog. While a majority of these collaborations have been met with vocal support, the cost of the new team-up with Hollow Knight has been met with some hesitation from players.
