Key Highlights:
- The Seven might be heading back to Fortnite, its claimed.
- The recent Stranger Things event dropped a hitn for this, as did the recent teaser for the upcoming chapter.
- Here’s what we know so far.
The Seven were an iconic addition to Fortnite, and an integral part of its lore. While Fortnite’s lore has always been confusing, the Seven have always been an extended, integral part of the game – that is, until their eventual disappearance from the world.
However, the Seven might just return to Fortnite once again, if recent events and leaks are to be believed.
The Seven Rumored to Be Back in Fortnite, Fans Claim

As part of the Fortnite x Stranger Things event, the game had announced a premiere, with character mascot Peely making an appearance. The more eagle eyed of fans quickly noticed a rather unusual addition to Peely’s denim jacket.
Peely’s jacket had the logo of the Seven on it, which could hint at their long awaited return to the game. The timing is suspect, and so happens to coincide with the recent teaser for the next chapter.
It’s to be noted here that the chapter name is spelled out as ‘Seven’ and does not use the numeric number equivalent, 7.

Fortnite might be teasing fans with the potential return of the Seven, and all evidence seems to be suggesting the same.
Epic Games Co-Founder Releases a Cryptic Post
Mark Rein, the co founder of Epic Games shared a rather curious post on X, after reposting the initial leak shared by the account going as Egyptian_Leaker (Egyptian Fortnite Leaker).
You people are just imagining things. Let’s take a big breath, count to 10 and let it go. Here we go: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, SEVEN, 8, 9, 10. Do we feel better now? Relaxation is the key! https://t.co/N9e52rUtwD

While Mark seems to seemingly dismiss the whole thing as an internet hoax, his wording of the post is suspect. More so in the part where he mentions SEVEN instead of a numerical number, highlighting its importance.
Chapter 7, Season 1 of Fortnite is very likely to feature these heroes, and we will see some official announcements soon.
So, Who Are the Seven in Fortnite?
The Seven are used to refer to a group of selfless individuals in the world of Fortnite. The group’s objectives include the destruction of the Imagined Order (against all odds – and costs), and the protection of the Zero Point.
Led by The Foundation, the Seven (as the name implies) consists of a total of seven founding members, while being supported by miscellaneous other outer members (such as Loopers) who have been rallied to their cause.
In their fight against The Loop, the Seven have renounced their prior identities, and wear futuristic armor sets that give them awesome powers (in addition to removing the effects of The Loop).
However, the Seven fell apart and have been declared to be either dead, or missing in battle entirely, as of Fortnite’s Chapter 4 Season 1 update. However, the group has been noted to have survived these events, if only in an alternate universe, one where The Visitor has been confirmed as being one of its principal members.
As such, it’s quite reasonable to see why fans are excited for their eventual return, as this is something that has been hyped up (and slowly forgotten) for quite a while now.
