Epic Games and Hasbro's partnership will now continue with another line Fortnitethemed blasters, which Game Rant can exclusively reveal. The upcoming lineup includes four products: NERF Fortnite SP-Drift OG, BASR OG, SP-Meowscles and a Fortnitemares Blaster Pack with four micro-sized dart shooters. Each item is rated as suitable for ages eight and up and includes a redeemable code card for a virtual bonus item Fortnite. All four are targeted for a stateside release in July 2026, though dealer availability varies by product. Blasters will be on display at the upcoming New York Toy Fair, which is scheduled to take place between February 14th and 17th.

MSRP: $19.99
Reseller: Goal
Drop: July 2026

The SP-Drift OG is positioned as a compact, sidearm-style blaster with an internal three-dart clip and six included NERF Elite foam darts. Hasbro says its removable cylinder is meant to support quick customization. The NERF Fortnite SP-Drift OG will launch as a Target exclusive, priced at $19.99.

NERF Fortnite SP MEOWSCLES

MSRP: $19.99
Reseller: Goal
Drop: July 2026

The SP-Meowscles is a counterpart to the SP-Drift OG, again using an internal three-dart clip and a removable barrel for a smaller profile when needed. However, it will contain eight NERF Elite foam darts instead of six. This will also be a Target retail exclusive for $19.99.

NERF Fortnitemares Blaster Pack

MSRP: $19.99
Reseller: Walmart
Drop: July 2026

The Fortnitemares Blaster Pack shifts the focus from character-themed to seasonal branding, featuring four small blasters inspired by in-game weapons: Micro Fortnitemares Llama, Micro Peely Bone, Micro RL and Micro HC-R. The set costs $19.99, contains eight Elite darts and is listed as a Walmart exclusive. The Fortnitemares Blaster Pack is the only Summer 2026 product that will include multiple Fortnite blaster.

NERF Fortnite BASS AND

MSRP: $39.99
Reseller: Amazon, Target, Walmart and other major retailers
Drop: July 2026

For players who prefer a longer, rifle-style option, the BASR OG is described as a bolt-action blaster that fires six arrows in sequence from a detachable six-arrow clip. It also comes with a detachable scope, includes 16 Elite darts and costs $39.99, with distribution listed across major retailers such as Amazon, Target and Walmart. This will be the de facto successor to the 2020 BASR-L, which has not been stored for years.

Hasbro has yet to reveal what the virtual bonus included in each of its upcoming NERF blasters actually is. For now, it is certain that the digital item will be cross-platform, ie can be used in all versions of the game due to the fact that it is linked to one's Epic Games account. The promotional codes included in the blasters are valid until July 15, 2030. However, there is a chance that most of these products will end long before then, presumably making way for some new line of Fortnite merchandise. By comparison, Hasbro's Fortnite– Themed NERF blasters still available for purchase include five products. While the oldest of them – the Soaker Pump-SG Water Blaster – has been available since 2020, most are much newer. In addition, the majority of Fortnite blasters launched by the toy maker since 2019 have been discontinued in early 2026.
