The Fortnite x Kingdom Hearts collaboration is now live, bringing Sora, Riku, Kairi and Roxas to the game. Nintendo has released a reveal trailer for the crossover, which is available on both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.
All four characters have arrived in the Fortnite Item Shop as outfits, each with a matching Back Bling, Pickaxe and LEGO Fortnite style. The collaboration also includes a Kingdom Hearts bundle featuring additional cosmetics, including the Keyblade Flourish emote, Lil’ Gummi Ship emote and music tracks “Dearly Beloved” and “The Other Promise.”
The crossover also includes Battle Royale. Players can wield the Kingdom Key to perform melee combos and summon a lightning attack, while Sea Salt Ice Cream restores health and shields. Two new Overrides have also been added: Recovery causes eliminated players to drop healing orbs, and Level Up gives each squad member a Mythic Kingdom Key.
Special Kingdom Hearts Power Hours will take place on September 19, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. ET and 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. ET. During these periods, all players will start with a Kingdom Key and Sea Salt Ice Cream.

Disney and Square Enix also announced the first original Kingdom Hearts animated series at D23, with the series set to feature a newly created story and involvement from Nomura and Square Enix’s creative team.
First launched in 2002 through a collaboration between Square Enix and Disney, the Kingdom Hearts franchise combines original characters with worlds and characters from Disney properties. Over the past two decades, the series has expanded over numerous console and handheld releases, selling more than 38 million copies worldwide and becoming one of Square Enix’s most successful franchises.
The most recent numbered installment, Kingdom Hearts III, concluded the long-running Dark Seeker Saga centered on Xehanort, while Kingdom Hearts IV will mark the beginning of a new story. Kingdom Hearts IV received an extended trailer gameplay during D23 2026, along with a late 2027 release date.
