Epic Games teased this collaboration with a Squid Game invite, showing the iconic circle, triangle, and square along with a cheerful smiley. The most likely addition from Squid Game will be skins and other cosmetics. These may include the guards, showing different ranks and symbols, or popular characters like Kang Sae-byeok, Seong Gi-hun, Oh Il-nam, Thanos, and more.

While there has never been an official collaboration between Epic Games and Squid Game, fans have created maps in Fortnite featuring games from the show. This includes Red Light, Green Light, and the glass bridge. Fans may see official game modes for these in Fortnite or at least new locations on the map where players may be able to play these or interact with elements from Squid Game.
No date was given for when Squid Game would come to Fortnite. Currently, Fortnite is in the middle of its Star Wars event, allowing players to interact with Darth Vader and explore Star Wars-themed locations. There will likely be no significant changes to the map, but fans may see some new additions.
When the Squid Game crossover begins, players will be able to purchase new items and cosmetics through the Fortnite store. These will probably be available individually or in a bundle, allowing fans to purchase what they want or get everything from Squid Game for a discounted price.
