Fortnite Teases ‘The Office’ Crossover

Epic Games has officially announced the partnership between Fortnite and the legendary TV show The Office, which excited fans with a teaser that mentioned the famous catchphrase altered to “Build. Beets. Battle Royale.” The news came through Fortnite’s Twitter account on January 20, 2026, indicating that the characters from Dunder Mifflin were coming to the battle royale universe.

The cryptic tweet comes with beets and the modified quote from Season 3’s “Product Recall” episode, in which Jim Halpert pranks Dwight. This is a clear indicator that the US version of the NBC show, which has been off the air since 2013, is part of the Fortnite crossover. There will be no Scranton-level map change, but cosmetic items will arrive.

Trustworthy leakers claim that skins for Michael Scott, the inept regional manager, and Dwight Schrute, the beet-farming salesman, are coming with the next Fortnite update on January 22, 2026. Rumors include emotes like “That’s What She Said” or back blings like the Jell-O stapler prank from Dwight Schrute. Other bundles could include Jim Halpert skins, which would fit in with the Epic suit-clad skins like John Wick.

Content is dropping soon, as Epic has been known to release content quickly after a tease. The Thursday launch is supported by dataminers such as Loolo_WRLD and AdiraFNInfo.

Social media went wild with excitement, mixing sitcom nostalgia and the collab legacy of Fortnite. This unusual mashup aligns with Epic’s 2026 plan, which includes expanding TV connections following rumors about Solo Leveling.
