What to expect from Fortnitemares 2025

This year’s Fortnitemares event introduces a brand-new boss character, the Mother of Thorns, and she’ll be voiced by the incredibly talented Doja Cat.
She won’t be alone on the island; she’ll be joined by a diverse group of famous characters, including horror icons like Jason Voorhees (from Friday the 13th) and Ghostface (from Scream), alongside Wednesday Addams and even the mystery-solving Scooby-Doo.
Along with updates to the classic Battle Royale map, Reload is also introducing Nitemare Island, a brand new map for the game mode.
Expect a variety of new and returning weapons, plus new quests and lots of fresh cosmetic items to unlock or purchase in the Item Shop.
Last year’s Fortnitemares event added cool new items like the Boom Billy and Chainsaw, plus some awesome character skins inspired by horror icons like Leatherface, Edward Scissorhands, and Billy the Puppet. We’re hoping Fortnitemares 2025 brings even more amazing skins!
