While we are slowly moving towards October, we are expecting things to get scary with Fortnitemares 2023. Here is what we know about this year's Halloween event for Fortnite.
We'll soon be welcoming Halloween in a couple of weeks, which means it's time to prepare for Fortnitemares 2023, where all sorts of spooky events unfold on the island.
Chapter 4 Season 4, titled 'Last Resort,' has been a resounding success and has already treated players to the second iteration of the Fortnite x My Hero Academia collaboration, along with the Fortnite 6th Birthday event.
Now, our sights are set on the forthcoming Fortnite Halloween Event. Let's dive into everything we currently know about it.
Fortnitemares 2023: Release Date
While there hasn't been an official announcement regarding the release date of the upcoming Halloween Event, we can make an educated guess by looking at last year's schedule.
We anticipate that the event will commence on October 17, 2023, and conclude on November 1, 2023. This schedule should remain consistent with the timing of Fortnitemares 2022.
The event is likely to coincide with the release of update v26.30.

Skins
One of the most anticipated aspects of every Fortnite event is the introduction of new cosmetics, particularly skins.
Currently, leaks are hinting at the arrival of three new skins for the upcoming Halloween event: Swamp Fishstick, Molten Love Ranger, and a Halloween-themed version of Meowscles.
These leaks originate from Happy, a trusted figure in the Fortnite leaker community. You can review his tweet below for more details.

New and Unvaulted Items
In each significant Fortnite event, it's customary to receive one or two new items that are thematically linked to the event, and occasionally, we witness the return of previously vaulted items.
As Fortnitemares 2023 approaches, expectations are high for a substantial roster of both new and unvaulted items. You can find the comprehensive list in the original tweet shared by Happy below.

Leaked information from various sources strongly suggests the inclusion of two brand-new Reality Augments for the upcoming Halloween event, Fortnitemares 2023.
