Fortnite is reportedly set to get a major update in November that adds a big crossover with the iconic animated franchise The Simpsons. Now, the latest leaks have suggested that it won’t just be The Simpson family coming to Fortnite, but also some of Springfield’s residents, including Ned Flanders.
Flanders is among the best-known characters on The Simpsons, so his inclusion in the update would be little surprise. We don’t know if this is true just yet, so take the leak with a grain of salt for now. Will there be a skin that celebrates “stupid sexy Flanders”? We’ll have to wait and see.
The rumored upcoming Fortnite collaboration with The Simpsons is said to be significant, with Fortnite adding a new map based on Springfield and featuring its various points of interest, like the nuclear power plant where Homer works.

As for the TV series, The Simpsons debuted in 1989 and is now in its 37th season. The show was renewed earlier this year and will continue through at least Season 40 in 2028-2029. A second Simpsons Movie is coming as well, and it’s set for release in July 2027, on the same day as A Minecraft Movie 2.
