Yeah, so all those teasers we’ve been seeing about Five Nights at Freddy’s on social media? Turns out, it’s not actually for Fortnite. The Dead by Daylight X account has announced that a collaboration with the popular horror game is in the works and will be coming in the summer of next year.
Leakers had been sharing teasers from the Five Nights at Freddy’s account, suggesting a cryptic gaming collaboration was on the way and set to be announced on August 5. Many assumed it was related to Fortnite, especially since it was happening right before a big Fortnite update on August 6. However, the announcement was actually for a collaboration with Dead by Daylight.
Fans of Fortnite had hoped that even if FNAF wasn’t coming to Fortnite, there might be a collaboration in the future due to the hype surrounding the concept. However, when the collaboration with Dead By Daylight was revealed, many Fortnite players were disappointed. Some even joked that Fortnite fans were on “suicide watch” after the announcement.
The collaboration between FNAF and Dead By Daylight won’t be happening until 2025, which leaves the possibility of Freddy Fazbear and his animatronic crew appearing in Fortnite or other games in the meantime. It seems like the Fortnite community will have to wait a bit longer to see if a collaboration will ever happen.
