Fortnite appears to be adding a hefty dose of 1980s nostalgia to Chapter 7 with the franchise’s iconic DeLorean. According to a DeLorean Labs tweet and images circulating from leakers, the car is set to arrive on November 29, 2025, the same day the new chapter goes live.
The early screenshots look strikingly faithful to the films and the real-life car. The hood, gullwing doors, and time-circuit details are all present, and the in-game model appears rideable rather than just a static prop. The images first shared by leaker BatPlay47 on X are what DeLorean Labs used in their post, and the visuals line up with what fans expect from a licensed Fortnite vehicle.
“Amazing to see a whole new generation get to experience the DeLorean in the upcoming Fortnite Chapter 7” reads the DeLorean Labs post embedded with the image. That line makes the collaboration sound official from the company that oversees the brand rather than just another unverified leak.

The HYPE is real!
Fortnite has always been innovative and ahead of the pack with its digital V-Bucks ecosystem and arguably the most culturally relevant game of this… pic.twitter.com/bFmpat6r1X

Fortnite has leaned into pop culture tie-ins for years, and Chapter 7 already had a cinematic feel before this. The season opens with a Kill Bill crossover, and other film nods have shown up in recent seasons. Console PC Gaming has previously reported the Chapter 7 start window, and readers can check our coverage of the Fortnite Chapter 7 start date for additional context on timing and what to expect when the new season lands.
What the DeLorean means for gameplay remains unclear. It could be a limited time vehicle, a purchasable cosmetic, or the centerpiece of timed events. Fans are already asking whether Marty McFly and Doc Brown will appear as skins, and whether the car will get a whimsical time travel effect in matches. For now the safest phrasing is that the car is confirmed by DeLorean Labs and looks headed to Fortnite on November 29, 2025.
Comments and reactions are already piling up across social channels, which usually means Epic will find ways to fold the collab into the battle pass and in game events. Keep an eye on official Epic channels for precise release windows, pricing, and any special in game mechanics tied to the DeLorean.
