Epic revealed that Fortnite was bringing back the incredible The Simpsons content in a future update, and we’ve got all the early details you need to know, from its start date to content.
Fortnite allowed gamers to run around Springfield properly for the first time since The Simpsons Hit and Run. There were so many classic Simpsons hidden secrets and gags, and fun bosses—it was a peak update.
The Simpsons is coming back to Fortnite, and soon.
When Does The Simpsons Come Back in Fortnite Reload?
It’s believed that the return of The Simpsons content will arrive on July 30 to kickstart Fortnite Reload.
Even if you’re not the biggest Simpsons fan ever, you have to admit the Springfield map was fun, and Epic made great use of the show’s endless list of gimmicks, characters, and gags to create a special experience.
Did I think they’d bring it back this soon? No. I am absolutely not complaining, and wish it were a full-time map and mode!
The full reveal for the crossover update is July 29. Here’s a sneak peek below of the impending update.
What to Expect From Fortnite & Simpsons Reload Update
Some leaks have suggested that there will be new content, including a new POI, but we should also expect to see a lot of the original content return, perhaps with new and returning bundles.
The biggest rumor in the mill is about the map.
Springfield will apparently have 10 POIs (points of interest) this time around, whereas the 2025 version had nine. The newcomer, according to leakers, could be the Retirement Home where many iconic characters like Grandpa Simpson and Jasper live.
Bizarrely, leakers also think it ‘could be something John Wick related.’
Also, thanks to @Luwwani, it seems the Reload map will house 50 players.
Stay tuned for a lot more information and reveals about the update.
To get you hyped, here’s the OG ‘Welcome to Springfield’ trailer!
