Fortnite × Supergirl Collaboration Launch
Epic Games announced a Fortnite-Supergirl crossover, releasing a Supergirl bundle in the Item Shop on June 26, 2026. The bundle includes a LEGO-style outfit, a House-of-El cape, a trench-coat edit style, Ruthye Marye Knoll’s sword pickaxe, the “Supergirl Party” emote and the Krypto sidekick. Players can also earn the skin for free by placing in the Supergirl Cup tournament starting June 24, 2026.
Background & Context
The partnership follows Epic’s DC collaborations and coincides with Craig Gillespie’s Supergirl film, starring Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El, which opens worldwide on June 26, 2026. The collaboration continues Epic’s pattern of aligning major DCU releases with in-game events.
Key Figures & Groups
Epic Games, director Craig Gillespie, lead actress Milly Alcock and supporting cast Matthias Schoenaerts and Eve Ridley are central; Jason Momoa’s Lobo is noted as absent, confirming the focus on core Supergirl elements.
Timeline
- June 24, 2026 – Supergirl Cup opens (Mobile Solos, Duos Zero Build, Duos Battle Royale).
- June 26, 2026 – Supergirl film releases; Fortnite Item Shop adds cosmetics.
Data & Statistics
Based on prior DC bundles, the outfit, sword, emote and Krypto sidekick are expected to cost roughly 1,500, 800, 400 and 1,500 V-Bucks. The Supergirl Cup grants 2 points per elimination and nine for a Victory Royale in Battle Royale/Zero Build (placement points start at top 25), while mobile matches award 1 point per elimination, seven for a Victory Royale, and cap eliminations at ten; rank thresholds to unlock the skin range from Top 100 in Oceania, Asia and the Middle East to Top 375 in Europe for main modes, and Top 30 for mobile.
Why It Matters
The tie-in offers a paid cosmetic and a skill-based free route, boosting player engagement while promoting the Supergirl film. The free route also incentivizes players to engage in the competitive Supergirl Cup.
Official Statements & Responses
Epic Games confirmed the June 26, 2026 Item Shop launch, the free-unlock via the Supergirl Cup, the requirement that participants be at least 13 years old and use multi-factor authentication, and gave no comment on Lobo’s exclusion. The tournament runs on PC, consoles and mobile devices.
Conflicting Reports & Gaps
One source says Lobo will not appear in the collaboration, while another leaves his inclusion uncertain; cosmetic pricing remains unannounced, and regional placement thresholds differ across guides, creating player ambiguity.
