Get ready for a spooky collaboration! Huggy Wuggy from Poppy Playtime is joining Fortnite for a Halloween event. Here’s everything you need to know, including when it launches and what the special bundle includes.

The popular horror game character, Huggy Wuggy, is joining Fortnite for its annual Fortnitemares event, alongside Scooby-Doo and his friends.

You can still get the K-Pop Demon Hunters collaboration, which added new quests and game modes to enjoy.

You’re probably here to learn about Huggy Wuggy, so let’s get straight to it! Read on for everything you need to know.

Huggy Wuggy in Fortnite release date

Huggy Wuggy will be available in Fortnite on either Thursday, October 23rd, or Friday, October 24th, depending on your location.

Starting then, you’ll find the Poppy Playtime character and their special items available in the Fortnite shop during the Fortnitemares event.

The information comes from a leak, so it might not be accurate or the release date could still change. That said, reliable Fortnite data miners are usually correct.

Huggy Wuggy in Fortnite UK launch time

Huggy Wuggy will come to Fortnite 1AM BST Friday 24th October 2025.

This information comes from iFireMonkey on X (formerly Twitter), who has accurately predicted release dates for past and future Fortnitemares events.

If you’re not a late-night person, you’ll likely need to wait until Friday morning to purchase the skin bundle.

Huggy Wuggy in Fortnite: what to expect

Before the Huggy Wuggy items are even available in Fortnite’s shop, Fortnite.gg has revealed everything that will be included in the bundle.

  • Huggy Wuggy Outfit
  • Grabpack Back Bling
  • Slappy Sledge Pickaxe
  • Ready to Pop emote
  • Wuggy Welcome Loading Screen
  • Huggy Horrors Loading Screen

We still don’t know the price of the new bundle. However, looking at past ‘Fortnitemates’ releases, individual skins have typically cost between 800 and 1,500 V-Bucks, and complete bundles have ranged from 2,000 to 3,400 V-Bucks.

Okay, so it looks like there’s just one skin coming out, which is awesome! I’m guessing it’ll probably cost around 2,500 V-Bucks, but I’ll let you all know for sure as soon as I have the official price!
