While details remain under wraps, fans anticipate a structure similar to the January 2026 Kizuna AI event.

Additionally, Fortnite Festival Jam Tracks may feature her hits "Stellar Stellar" and "Bibbidiba."
Though no official trailer has dropped yet, teasers recently appeared on digital billboards and subway ads throughout Japan. Fans have widely shared these clips, offering a glimpse of Suisei’s in-game model and her signature emote for the first time.
New Captain America Skin and More for Season 2
Beyond the Hoshimachi Suisei crossover, Fortnite is preparing for Chapter 7 Season 2, titled "Showdown." Announced on March 9, this season marks the return of The Ice King, the antagonist behind the Chapter 1 Season 7 "Ice Storm" event.
Also joining the battle is The Foundation, leader of The Seven and portrayed by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. A cinematic teaser revealed the Ice King rising from his throne to traverse a frozen chamber.
The footage highlights several iconic figures encased in ice blocks, prominently featuring a new Marvel’s Captain America skin.
