    It Started When an Alien Device Did What It Did: Ben 10 is Coming to Fortnite!

    Move over, Avengers—the wielder of the Omnitrix is finally making his way to the Island. After months of swirling rumours and “hero time” theories, Epic Games has officially confirmed that Ben 10 is the next major collaboration hitting Fortnite.

    If you grew up watching Ben Tennyson cycle through alien DNA to save the world, or if you’ve just been waiting for a skin that actually looks like it belongs in an intergalactic brawl, Friday is your day.


    Hero Time: Release Date and Launch Details

    Mark your calendars and set your alarms. The Fortnite x Ben 10 collaboration is scheduled to go live on Friday, April 24, 2026, at 8 PM ET (which translates to 1 AM BST on April 25 for our UK readers).

    Unlike some of the massive “mini-pass” events we’ve seen recently, this looks to be a focused Item Shop drop, though the teaser trailer has fans hoping for a few hidden surprises in the gameplay.


    What’s in the Omnitrix? (The Skins & Cosmetics)

    The collaboration appears to draw heavy inspiration from the Ben 10: Ultimate Alien era, featuring a cel-shaded art style similar to the recent Avatar and Dragon Ball crossovers. Here is what you can expect to find in the shop:

    • Ben Tennyson Outfit: The star of the show comes with his iconic green jacket.
    • Transformation Styles: This is the big one. Leaks and teasers confirm that Ben will have built-in transformation emotes, allowing him to shift into:
      • Heatblast (The Pyronite powerhouse)
      • Alien X (The near-omnipotent celestial being)
    • Gwen Tennyson Outfit: Ben’s cousin joins the fight, reportedly featuring her “Lucky Girl” magic/Mana effects as back bling or pickaxes.
    • Wildmutt Chompers: In one of the more unique cosmetic choices, we’re getting Fortnite Kicks (shoes) styled after the Vulpimancer, Wildmutt.
    • Additional Gear: Look out for Gwen’s Grimoire (Back Bling), Mana Orb pickaxes, and an Omnitrix Upgrade weapon wrap.

    Will There Be a Mythic?

    While Epic has been tight-lipped about gameplay items, the community is buzzing about a potential Omnitrix Mythic. Imagine a loot item that allows you to cycle through three different alien forms, each with a unique ability—Heatblast for fire damage, or perhaps XLR8 for a massive speed boost across the map.

    While not confirmed for this Friday’s drop, Epic has a history of adding Mythics a few days after the initial skin release to keep the momentum going.


    Why This is a Big Deal for TechMash Readers

    Fortnite has become more than just a Battle Royale; it is a digital museum of pop culture. Adding a Cartoon Network heavyweight like Ben 10 proves that Epic is leaning harder into the “Millennial and Gen Z nostalgia” market. For a franchise built on the concept of “transforming” to suit your environment, Ben 10 fits the Fortnite DNA perfectly.

    Dive into the Chaos: Darktide’s Free Weekend Unleashes Mayhem!

    Attention, loyal citizens of the Imperium! Do you hear the whispers of the warp? Do you long to unleash your fury upon the heretical hordes? Well, the Emperor has smiled upon you, for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide is having a Free Weekend!

    That’s right, from now until the 8th of December, you can dive headfirst into the grimdark future and experience the visceral, cooperative combat that has captivated countless players. If you’ve been on the fence about joining the fight on Tertium, this is your golden opportunity to try it out without spending a single dreg of your precious thrones.

    What Awaits You in the Depths of Tertium?

    For those unfamiliar, Darktide throws you and three other rejects into the grimy underbelly of a sprawling hive city, tasked by the enigmatic Inquisitor Grendyl to root out a burgeoning Nurgle infestation. Think Vermintide, but with boltguns, chainswords, and enough gothic architecture to make your eyes bleed (in a good way, of course!).

    Here’s a taste of what you can expect:

    • Four Unique Classes: Will you be the steadfast Veteran, raining down righteous fire? The hulking Ogryn, a mountain of muscle and mayhem? The mysterious Psyker, bending the warp to your will (at great personal risk)? Or the zealot Preacher, cleaving through heretics with unholy fervor? Each class offers a distinct playstyle and a wealth of customization.
    • Brutal, Satisfying Combat: Darktide’s combat is a symphony of visceral impacts. Melee feels weighty and impactful, with satisfying dismemberments and sprays of gore. Ranged combat is equally thrilling, as you unleash volleys of laser fire, explosive rounds, and psychic blasts.
    • Endless Hordes of Heretics: Prepare to face wave after wave of Nurgle’s corrupted servants. From the shambling poxwalkers to the terrifying monstrosities, every encounter is a test of skill, teamwork, and nerve.
