Honkai: Star Rail is officially on a collision course with Fortnite, at least based on a new teaser shared by the Epic Games Store. While details are still scarce, the imagery and wording used have left little doubt among fans about what is being hinted at.

On Friday, January 30, the Epic Games Store posted an image on X with two swords embedded in the ground, accompanied by the caption, “Who’s trailblazing their way to Fortnite?”.

For players familiar with Honkai: Star Rail, the weapons were immediately recognisable. One appears to be Blade’s cracked sword, while the other resembles Kafka’s red-bladed katana, strongly suggesting the space RPG as the collaboration partner.

Epic Games Store Teaser Sparks Fan Speculation

The teaser did not come from Fortnite’s main social accounts, which makes the reveal slightly unusual, but the response was immediate. Comment sections quickly filled with fans calling out a Fortnite x Honkai Star Rail crossover, pointing to the specific weapon designs as clear evidence.

This collaboration was not widely predicted. Many players had previously speculated that other HoYoverse titles like Genshin Impact or Zenless Zone Zero would be more likely candidates for a Fortnite crossover, given their character designs and popularity in cosmetic-driven collaborations. The appearance of Honkai: Star Rail instead caught much of the community off guard.

Blade And Kafka Likely Front And Centre

Eagle-eyed fans identified the swords as belonging to Blade and Kafka, two of Honkai: Star Rail’s most recognisable characters. Their inclusion in the teaser has led to speculation that they could be the first characters introduced if the crossover involves playable cosmetics.

At this stage, nothing has been confirmed by Epic Games or HoYoverse. The content could range from full character skins to themed items, a limited-time event, or even companion-style cosmetics inspired by Star Rail’s roster. There are currently no reliable leaks outlining the scope of the collaboration.

Fortnite Leak Sources Back The Crossover

Adding weight to the speculation, well-known Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR has reportedly confirmed that the teaser does relate to a collaboration with HoYoverse’s free-to-play gacha RPG. Even so, no timeline or release window has been shared publicly.

For now, Fortnite itself has remained silent, and players are left waiting for an official announcement that explains what form the crossover will take, and when it might arrive in-game.

What This Could Mean Going Forward

If confirmed, this crossover would mark Honkai: Star Rail’s first appearance in Fortnite, and could open the door for more HoYoverse properties to follow. Fans are already imagining how characters from across HoYoverse’s catalogue might translate into Fortnite’s battle royale format.

Until Epic Games or HoYoverse break their silence, the teaser stands as a clear signal that something is coming, even if the full picture is still out of reach.

If you are looking to stock up on free Primogems, Mora, and upgrade materials, the latest Genshin Impact codes are well worth grabbing. HoYoverse, previously known as miHoYo, has rolled out several new redemption codes during the Version 6.3 Special Program, alongside a solid list of active codes still available in January 2026.

Some of these codes are only live for a short time, especially those shared during the livestream, so redeeming them as soon as possible is strongly recommended.

Genshin Impact 6.3 Livestream Codes

The following codes were revealed during the Genshin Impact 6.3 Special Program, also known as the Luna IV update. These livestream codes expire quickly and will only be available for a few days.

If you have not redeemed these yet, it is best to do so immediately, as livestream codes are among the fastest to expire.

Active Genshin Impact Codes For January 2026

Alongside the livestream drops, several Genshin Impact codes remain active this month. These provide a mix of Primogems, Mora, EXP materials, and food items, and can be redeemed while they are still valid.

While these codes currently have no confirmed expiry date, they can be disabled without warning, so it is a good idea to redeem them sooner rather than later.

How To Redeem Genshin Impact Codes

Redeeming your Genshin Impact codes is quick and easy, as long as your account meets the requirements.

First, head to the official Genshin Impact code redemption website. Log in using the button in the top right corner, select your server, then enter the redemption code and confirm.

Your account must be Adventure Rank 10 or higher to redeem codes. If you play on PlayStation and have not linked an account yet, you will need to create one directly from the in game menu by going to Settings, Account, then User Center. Make sure to follow this process in game first, as creating an account on the website beforehand will prevent PlayStation linking.
