The first Fortnite x My Hero Academia collaboration was released in the first season of Chapter 4. The anime collab was big as it brought four new skins and a new Mythic item. One of the heroes, Izuku Midoriya, was even featured in the trailer for the new season.

The second collaboration was leaked a while ago, but no one knew when it’d arrive. Fortunately, Epic Games decided to release it with the v26.10 update on Tuesday, September 12. Once again, this crossover has brought many new cosmetic items, including three skins.

Here’s everything you should know about it.

More My Hero Academia characters have come to Fortnite

The v26.10 update is the first major update of Chapter 4 – Season 4. Due to this, it’s no surprise that Epic Games decided to add a lot of new content with it. Considering how popular the first My Hero Academia collab was, it was just a matter of time before the second part of it arrived.

The second wave has brought three new characters: Shoto Todoroki, Mina Ashido, and Eijiro Kirishima. All of them have matching accessories that can be purchased from the Item Shop. Additionally, Epic will likely re-release cosmetic items from the first collaboration, as they were last seen in July.

The trailer for the second Fortnite x My Hero Academia collaboration also reveals a new frozen ability. The new ability is capable of stopping Deku’s Smash, which has also returned with the new collaboration. For more information, we will have to wait for Fortnite servers to get back up.

At the moment, it’s unknown how long these items will stay in the shop. However, considering that most collaborations now last for at least a week, we expect them to be available until late September. The next major update will likely come on September 26, so the collab may last until then.
