Yeah — the annual Fortnitemares update is officially set for Wednesday, October 15, 2025, but here’s the fun part: the leaks are already spilling out before Epic even says a word. According to well-known Fortnite leaker SamLeakss, who dropped the scoop on X back on August 14, we’re about to see a Scooby-Doo skin bundle land in the game just in time for Halloween.
Is Scooby Doo Coming to Fortnite?
Yes, Scooby Doo (well, sort of) is heading to Fortnite — at least if the leaks are on the money. According to reliable dataminers, the upcoming Fortnitemares 2025 update is going to feature a Scooby-Doo crossover, and while that sounds like childhood dreams colliding with battle royale chaos, there’s a small catch: the first drop seems to be all about Shaggy.
On X, insider @SamLeakss revealed that a Fortnite x Scooby-Doo collaboration is on the way. According to the leak, Shaggy will feature multiple skins or unique styles and is expected to debut during Fortnitemares 2025. The scoop also hints at Jason Voorhees items and more, making this crossover one to watch.
On X, @Jokers_Stream_ shared an exciting first look at Scooby-Doo and Shaggy making their way into Fortnite, giving fans an early glimpse at the iconic duo inside the game.
From what’s been shared, Shaggy will arrive as a cosmetic skin with multiple styles and even show up as an NPC wandering the island. That alone feels wild — imagine bumping into a laid-back Shaggy between firefights. But no, you won’t be hopping in with the full Mystery Machine gang right away. Velma stans (I see you) will have to be patient.
Still, the idea of Scooby not making it into Fortnite feels almost impossible. Even if he’s just tucked into a backpack as back bling, Epic knows fans would riot if the Great Dane was missing. Personally, I’m rooting for a Mystery Machine glider — bonus points if it trails cartoon smoke clouds as you drop in. And don’t get me started on the potential emotes. If “Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?” isn’t playable, what are we even doing here?
Here’s what the leaks suggest for now:
-
Shaggy: Multiple skins/variants, plus NPC role on the island.
-
Scooby Doo: Expected in some form (very likely back bling or tied to Shaggy’s bundle).
-
Mystery Machine: Rumored to hit the Item Shop as a vehicle or glider, possibly linked to Rocket League’s crossover system.
I’ll be honest: part of me still can’t believe we’re talking about Scooby Doo teaming up with Fortnite skins like Ghostface and Jason Voorhees in the same event. That’s some cartoon-meets-horror fever dream right there. But that’s also Fortnite at its best — silly, spooky, and somehow nostalgic all at once.
