A wave of new
Fortnite leaks
has surfaced online, teasing a lineup of upcoming content that includes themed seasons, new locations, and possibly the long-awaited Simpsons collaboration. The leak, believed to be sourced from an insider, has excited fans across the globe, revealing a roadmap packed with surprises all the way into Chapter 7.
While
Epic Games
has yet to confirm anything officially, multiple Fortnite leakers, including trusted names like @SpushFNBR - have shared extensive details that hint at a series of themed updates, including a superhero academy season and a 'Bug Invasion' theme, leading into a mini-season centred around The Simpsons.

Springfield may be coming to Fortnite
According to the leak, Fortnite's Mini-Season 2 - expected later this year, could revolve around The Simpsons, with the town of Springfield possibly arriving as a new Point of Interest (POI). Though details are scarce, there's speculation that iconic locations like the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, Krusty Burger, and Moe's Tavern could feature in the game.
This wouldn't be Fortnite's first adult animation collaboration. Past crossovers have included Family Guy's Peter Griffin and characters from Futurama, and Epic's $1.5 billion partnership with Disney in 2024 further fuels expectations for an ambitious Simpsons tie-in.
If true, this would mark a significant moment in Fortnite's long history of pop culture collaborations, with fans eager to see characters like Homer, Bart, and Marge enter the battle royale universe. Some reports even suggest Homer Simpson could headline the season's Battle Pass.
A stacked roadmap into 2026
The leaked roadmap outlines content well beyond the
Simpsons mini-season
. Chapter 6 Season 3 is expected to focus on a Superhero Academy theme, with Midas returning as a central figure and a Superman mythic power-up debuting alongside the Fortress of Solitude as a new POI.
Chapter 6 Season 4 reportedly brings a 'Bug Invasion' theme, while Chapter 7 may begin with a city life and gala aesthetic, followed by a Norse mythology theme in Season 2. A Marvel-themed mini-season is also expected to return in 2026, complete with symbiote features.
In addition to new seasons and characters, concerts are expected to make a return next year, with two major events also planned for 2025.
While all this information remains unconfirmed, fans won't have to wait long. Fortnite's current Star Wars mini-season ends on June 7, and Epic is expected to announce what's next shortly after.

The network is gearing up to bring all of its entertainment premieres in the second slate of September, with no post-NFL premieres or two-hour openers, reported Variety. The second season of Molly Parker and Felicity Huffman starrer 'Doc' has been slated for release on September 23 at 9 PM, following the premiere of the crime drama 'Murder in a Small Town Season 2.' For September 24, Rob Lowe's 'The Floor' will be returning with its fourth season, as well as the new game show '99 to Beat'.

When will the Fortnite servers come back online after v36.30 downtime?

Image via Epic Games. After the previous patch which implemented new contents like the Superman crossover, permanent Blitz Royale mode, and many more, Fortnite is gearing up for yet another patch update, this time it's v36.30. As we are nearing the end of Chapter 6 Season 3, a new patch update was quite evident, and v36.30 is going to be the last one in this season. If any new mini season doesn't drop, we will soon take entry into the last stage of Chapter 6. Fortnite v36.30 server downtime schedule As the game's name suggests, Fortnite gets a patch update every two weeks, just like it got the v36.20 patch on July 15 . Coming from the summer break, it's been some busy times for the Fortnite developers as another patch is coming in its way. As it's a patch update, hence Fortnite servers will go offline for sometime to implement v36.30. In a post by the official Twitter handle of Fortnite Status, Epic Games has recently confirmed that the downtime for v36.30 will begin at 4 AM ET/ 1 AM PT/ 8 AM UTC on Tuesday, July 30, 2025. — FortniteStatus (@FortniteStatus) Matchmaking will be disabled 30 minutes before the start of downtime, which is around 3:30 AM ET, and players are advised to stay from entering a match around that time because their matches can unexpectedly end midway. Now the main question is, when will the Fortnite servers come back online after v36.30 downtime? Unlike the previous one, v36.30 patch is going to be a standard regulatory update and downtime shouldn't take longer than expected. As of now, no content is confirmed through this patch update, so the downtime might last for two to three hours. That means fans can expect the servers to get online at around 7 AM ET/ 1 AM PT/ 8 AM UTC on Tuesday, July 30, 2025. However, this deduction comes from previous downtime timelines, so discrepancies can happen at any time based on location, platform, and server. Hence, players should be patient until the downtime ends. However, after the patch is implemented, fans can return back to the fields of Fortnite immediately.

​Fortnite August 2025 Crew Pack skins get leaked

Image via Epic Games. There is no shortage of skins and accessories in Fortnite now, thanks to Chapter 6 Season 3. The Fantastic Four skins have recently been released, which has already enriched the cosmetic arsenal in the game. Now to add more to it, Fortnite's Crew Pack skins for August 2025 have now been leaked. Last month's Reboot Man skin and accessories gathered so much love from the fans that they are now waiting for something more exciting. And the August 2025 Crew Pack seems to be exactly that. All leaked Fortnite Crew Pack skins and accessories for August 2025 Whenever it's a new leak, we know most of the time it's going to be Hypex. Yet again this leaker has revealed another exciting aspect of the game, the Crew Pack skins in the game for 2025. This leaker recently shared a post on Twitter which gave us the first look of Crew Pack skin for 2025. However, unlike the previous month's leak , this leak by Hypex didn't mention the name of the skin. In this post, a girl with purplish-teal hair is seen wearing a yellow hoodie-like costume with a bear shaped hood, having probable bear-like pickaxes in both of her hands, which seem to be some kind of traps. Not only that, her belt also featured some bear-like grenades as well. This leak claims that players having Crew Pack subscriptions in August 2025 will be given away this skin for free. We don't have the exact release date of this skin, so this should be taken with a grain of salt until Epic Games officially reveals this. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help! Donate For Health Donate Now Undo However, keeping in mind Hypex' past track records in Fortnite leaks, this skin is likely to be featured very soon in the game. The leak didn't feature any accessories except the probable Pickaxe. But it's quite confirmed that if this skin makes it to the Fortnite's Crew Pack in August 2025, then all the Crew Pack subscribers will get at least one matching accessory like a bear-themed Pickaxe, Back Bling, Glider, Wrap, or Emote. However, having an active crew pack subscription also offers 1,000 V-Bucks, access to the current and active Battle Pass, the OG Pass, the LEGO Pass, the Music Pass, and last but not the least, Rocket League's Rocket Pass Premium too. So, it's worth a shot buying the Fortnite Crew Pack for just $12 a month. Read More: What are the new game modes coming to Fortnite? Catch Rani Rampal's inspiring story on Game On, Episode 4.
