Epic Games has officially announced an exciting new collaboration between Fortnite Creative and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT). This is not a standard cosmetics event; rather, it empowers map creators to design TMNT-themed game modes within the immersive environment of Fortnite Creative and UEFN (Unreal Editor for Fortnite).
The partnership continues a trend of thrilling collaborations that Fortnite has had with the TMNT franchise. A notable recent example includes an independently created UEFN map that combined TMNT elements with Snoop Dogg, which even garnered attention from the official Fortnite X social media channels.
Overview of the Fortnite Creative x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Collaboration
This event diverges from previous TMNT-themed activities in Fortnite, which typically centered around introducing character skins and emotes for the Battle Royale mode. Instead, this collaborative effort focuses entirely on UEFN and Creative mode, delivering a comprehensive suite of tools and assets directly from the TMNT universe.
The collaboration offers an exciting array of features that players can leverage:
- Playable and NPC Characters: All four beloved turtles—Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael—are included as NPCs, along with allies like April O’Neil and Casey Jones, and iconic villains such as Shredder, Krang, and Bebop.
- Custom Environments: Creators can construct renowned TMNT settings, including the Turtle Lair, the Technodrome, and expansive sewer tunnels. A variety of detailed prefabs, props, and new graffiti textures will enhance the atmosphere with a distinctly animated feel.
- Weapons and Gadgets: Iconic TMNT weaponry, including katanas, sais, bo staffs, and nunchaku, will be available, allowing for dynamic gameplay and NPC interactions using Creative devices.
- Official Map Templates: Epic Games will provide various TMNT-based starter islands, featuring themes like Dimension X, City, and Arcade to jumpstart creators’ projects.
A standout feature of this collaboration is the upcoming TMNT Dimensions 2 [ROGUELIKE] UEFN island. Set to be launched on April 24, 2025, this map has been developed by Spiral House. The official code for the map will be:
- TMNT Dimensions 2 Map Code: 0564-2509-4966 (Available from April 24, 2025)
To utilize the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles assets, creators must participate in the Island Creator Program and accept specific licensing agreements pertaining to the intellectual property. It’s essential that all published maps adhere to Epic Games’ content rating requirements. Additionally, this collaboration is exclusively related to creator-generated islands and does not impact the main Fortnite map.
