Even though Marvel's Hawkeye with Jeremy Renner and Hailee Steinfeld concluded on December 22, 2021, fans of the Disney+ series have even more content to look forward to. In addition to Hawkeye's episode of Marvel Studios: Assembled making its debut on February 9, 2022, recent reports suggest that Clint Barton and Kate Bishop will also be making their Fortnite debut in the near future.
Ever since the 2018 Avengers: Infinity War crossover event, Marvel fans have come to expect playable Fortnite skins inspired by new MCU characters. In 2021 alone, Epic Games and Marvel teamed up for crossovers themed around Black Widow, Loki, Shang-Chi, and most recently, Tom Holland's Peter Parker and Zenday's MJ from Spider-Man: No Way Home.
While not every MCU project has crossed over to Fortnite, new leaks confirm that OG Avenger Clint Barton and his new protege Kate Bishop are next in line to make the jump.

Fortnite's Hawkeye skins are expected to be released on February 1, 2022.
What MCU Project Will Fortnite Target Next?
After a packed year of MCU content both in theaters and on Disney+, Hawkeye's Fortnite debut should help tide fans over until Moon Knight - Marvel's next Disney+ series - drops on Disney+ in March, followed by Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in theaters on May 7, 2022.
For Disney+ fans, it's worth noting that Epic Games doesn't just work with Marvel Studios. In addition to deals with DC, Halo, and John Wick, Fortnite has also featured crossovers focused on The Mandalorian and, most recently, The Book of Boba Fett, which is in the midst of its Disney+ run.
While fans will no doubt enjoy Kate and Clint's trick arrows and street-level fighting style come February 1, the question is which upcoming MCU projects will be the next crossover?
WandaVision didn't receive a Fortnite crossover in early 2021, nor did Doctor Strange despite starring in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Perhaps Fortnite players can expect skins of these two Multiverse of Madness characters along with America Chavez later this year?
Fortnite is available to download on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch, and select mobile devices.
