One day after A$AP Rocky revealed his own tie-in, rapper Lil Uzi Vert has confirmed that he is joining the game too. He posted a short teaser on Instagram on October 22, 2026, and it also gives players a first look at what’s coming in the Chapter 7 mini-season. Fortnite’s next mini-season is taking shape through a run of artist-led teasers.
Syd appeared in a Chapter 7 Season 4 quest, so this skin builds on existing lore. The teaser shows a remixed Anvil Square, the landmark that debuted in Chapter 4 Season 1, restyled to suit the new mini-season. It resembles the chests already in the current chapter, and the A$AP Rocky teaser featured one too.
Anime Syd: A cel-shaded skin of Syd, the person behind the Cuddle Team Leader persona. The teaser also shows an anime-style edit style for Cuddle Team Leader, which Epic will probably pair with a Syd bundle. Fans of older seasons have something to look forward to. A Pirate Chest also appears, with a red jewel and a purple crowned skull. That points to a pirate and treasure-hunt theme, which fits with the anime-flavored cosmetics.
