Get ready to spin, glide, and crank some 90s—two of the most beloved 90s platforming icons are officially landing on the Battle Royale island!
Epic Games has officially confirmed that the legendary N. Sane Duo, Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon, are heading to the Fortnite Item Shop. Arriving as part of the blockbuster Chapter 7, Season 4: Override crossover lineup, these gaming titans are primed to join the fray later this week.
If you grew up breaking Wumpa crates and hoarding dragon eggs, here is everything you need to know about this massive nostalgia-packed drop.
What’s Included in the Crash & Spyro Crossover?
Epic Games dropped a teaser trailer showcasing the iconic duo in action, and they’re bringing plenty of fan service along for the ride.
Crash Bandicoot (Outfit & Edit Styles)
The wild orange marsupial is arriving as a full Outfit Skin.
- Modern Style: Crash comes equipped with his updated, high-definition look straight out of his modern titles like Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time.
- Retro Low-Poly Style: For true PlayStation 1 veterans, Crash comes with an alternative retro PS1 polygon style, letting you run around the Fortnite island looking like a 1996 classic sprite.
- Back Bling & Pickaxe Potential: While full bundle details are kept under wraps until the shop reset, teasers hint at Aku Aku making an appearance alongside Crash’s trusty Wumpa Fruit.
Spyro the Dragon (Sidekick / Companion)
Everyone’s favourite purple dragon is making his Fortnite debut in a slightly different format—as a Sidekick / Companion!
- Reignited Look: Modelled after his sharp, colourful aesthetics from the Spyro Reignited Trilogy.
- Animations: The teaser showed off Spyro doing his signature sneeze-fireball animation, proving he’s packed with personality.
- Colour Variants: In addition to his classic purple look, Spyro will also come with a Blue edit style, paying homage to classic colour-swap power-ups!
Release Date: When Can You Get Them?
The Fortnite: Override update has already seen a massive influx of classic gaming icons like Sonic the Hedgehog and Mega Man.
While Epic hasn’t dropped an exact hour for the Item Shop countdown, official teasers confirm that the N. Sane Duo will drop in the Item Shop later this week, with expectations pointing directly toward the upcoming weekend shop rotation.
Expect the bundle to feature a discounted price if you want to grab both Crash, Spyro, and their matching cosmetics all at once!
The Verdict
Fortnite’s ability to bridge generations of gaming culture remains unmatched. Seeing Crash Bandicoot hitting a Griddy after clutching a Victory Royale—with Spyro floating by his side—is the kind of absolute gaming chaos we live for.
