Disney and Fortnite are set to collaborate extensively in the coming years, with the potential inclusion of Pixar brands in their partnership.
The strong relationship between the two companies is evident, as the upcoming battle pass is expected to feature Marvel characters and they have previously incorporated Star Wars characters in the game, along with hosting annual collaboration events for Star Wars Day every May. Given that Marvel and Star Wars are under the Disney umbrella, the addition of Pixar to Fortnite seems like a natural progression. According to leaks, this is just the beginning of the collaboration.

More Pixar Collaboration in Fortnite
Following the recent D23 expo announcement, it has been confirmed that The Incredibles will be making an appearance in Fortnite, marking the first collaboration between Fortnite and Pixar. Players can expect to see the superhero family in-game, with content based on Mr. and Mrs. Incredible, as well as Frozone. This collaboration coincides with the news of an upcoming third installment in The Incredibles franchise.
Notably, leaker ShiinaBR highlighted the significance of this collaboration being the first Pixar crossover in Fortnite. This suggests that more crossovers from the Pixar universe may be on the horizon. With both Fortnite and Disney fully invested in this partnership, there is a high likelihood of additional iconic Pixar franchises making their way into the game.
Potential future collaborations could include properties like Cars, Toy Story, Monsters Inc., and Inside Out. While some Pixar properties may be challenging to incorporate into Fortnite, there are several that lend themselves well to the gaming environment. The release of The Incredibles collaboration is anticipated later this year.
