It's worth being aware that nothing has been announced by Epic at this time, but that doesn't stop the web from speculating. Even Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney has briefly commented on the possibility, prompting many to assume the US rapper's return is imminent.
Let's dive into what's actually been said so far, when Travis Scott could potentially pop up in Fortnite again and what his history with the game looks like.
Rumours have begun to build since June 2023 that Travis Scott might return to Fortnite in some form, with players seemingly desperate to get their hands on the highly sought-after Icon Series outfit after it was vaulted three years ago by Epic.
The hashtag <a href=«https://twitter.com/hashtag/bringbacktravisscott?src=» https:>#BringBackTravisScott
has also been shared by several players campaigning for its return, something Epic has done in the past with previous collaborations.
Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney responded to a fan's question (via X, formerly Twitter) regarding the return of Travis Scott in the game, after the rapper did not face criminal charges surrounding the Astroworld concert in 2021.
«Travis Scott is welcome in Fortnite. I’m just not in the loop on item shop rotations so I don’t know what’s coming when, or what specific agreements with celebrities and brands affect the timing of those decisions,» wrote Sweeney back in June 2023.
This all seems to suggest that while nothing has officially been confirmed, Travis Scott and the Travis Scott Icon Series skin could return to Fortnite at some point.

No official timeline has been provided as to whether Travis Scott will return to Fortnite by Epic Games.
That said, we think there's a chance the rapper could appear in Fortnite Festival in some capacity – potentially in April. Our thinking behind this is that Travis Scott's Astronomical event took place within Fortnite between 23rd and 24th April 2020. Epic could then use this occasion to reintroduce the skin as part of the third anniversary. The last time the Travis Scott skin was available via the in-game store was 27th

Destiny 2 fashion aficionados, you have something to get pumped about before The Final Shape. That’s because, arguably, the best weapon shader is returning to the game via the upcoming Riven’s Wishes content. I’m talking about Twilight Keepsake, the matte black one. So, while you may have all the Starcats and every Wish-Keeper Catalyst, there’s still something to look forward to during the next expansion’s lengthy delay. It’s especially true for anyone who missed out on Twilight Keepsake the first and only other time it was available in-game.
A new report courtesy of Bloomberg (via IGN) indicates that the Nintendo Switch 2—the follow-up console to the incredibly popular Nintendo Switch—will feature an 8-inch LCD display. The report by Bloomberg cites Hiroshi Hayase—an analyst with Omdia specialising in the display market.
Fortnite is set to come back to iOS in Europe sometime in 2024. This will mark the first time a natively running version of Fortnite will be available on iOS since Apple removed the game from the App Store in 2020.
Following Apple's announcement of enabling third-party app stores for iOS users in the European Union, Epic Games confirms that it'll be bringing Fortnite back to the iPhone and iPad in Europe later this year — by way of a new Epic mobile games store. This will mark the title's official return to Apple's platform since it was yanked back in August 2020, after Epic offered discounts to payments made directly to its own store, instead of Apple's App Store and Google Play which would take a 30-percent cut. iOS users have had to rely on Xbox Cloud Gaming or GeForce Now to play Fortnite, but this will soon be a thing of the past for those based in Europe.
Fortnite will return to iOS devices in 2024, but only in European Union countries. This is thanks to a new EU law known as the Digital Markets Act, which is set to take effect in March. Fortnite's iOS release in the EU could follow shortly after.
Fortnite is coming back to iOS this year, at least in Europe, Epic Games announced today. It will do so by taking advantage of the Digital Markets Act law passed by the European Union, which will let the Epic Games Store on iOS.
Fortnite maker Epic Games says it'll be launching a native iOS version of the Epic Games Store — and bringing Fortnite back to iOS devices — following today's announcement that Apple will soon allow sideloading and alternate marketplaces on its devices to comply with new EU rules. That's as Epic boss Tim Sweeney calls Apple's revised guidelines «hot garbage».
In light of new regulations in the EU and Apple's new policies to comply with them, Fortnite is finally coming back to iOS in 2024 - at least in Europe. But Epic and Apple aren't done fighting with each other.
With the likes of Shin Megami Tensei 5, Persona 5 Reload, Persona 4 Golden, and Persona 3 Portable, Atlus has released a number of its major titles for the Nintendo Switch in recent years, so when the developer announced last year that its next two flagship releases in Persona 3 Reload and Metaphor: ReFantazio wouldn’t be coming to Nintendo’s platform, many were taken by surprise.
A recent Fortnite leak has revealed that four vaulted items will be brought back to the game in Chapter 5 Season 1. Following the conclusion of Chapter 4, Fortnite has made some changes to the item pool, sending the likes of Drum Shotgun, Grapple Glove, and Infantry Rifle to the vault for an unspecified time. However, the battle royale has replaced them with some powerful equipment, such as Grapple Blade and Frenzy Auto Shotgun.
