Fortnite fans will see Ice Spice dive into Bikini Bottom with a fresh, flower‑laden swimsuit that echoes the 2025 hit “The SpongeBob Movie: Search for SquarePants.” The new Fortnite x SpongeBob Wave 2, teased by HYPEX on X, drops the rapper’s branded appearance and related items into the game’s next season.
Ice Spice’s Bikini Bottom Look Leaked
The leaked pack includes a fully rendered skin for Ice Spice adorned in a water‑themed bikini that echoes the movie’s subtitle and O. The character will also receive a back bling inspired by her “Big Guy” music video, turning the visual narrative into in‑game gear.
Epic has hinted that the track “Big Guy” will appear as a ready‑made emote and a Jam Track / Fortnite Moment for players to use, creating an immersive crossover that fuses music and gaming worlds.
Patrick Star Joins as a Fortnite Sidekick
Patrick Star’s addition follows the pattern used for SpongeBob, where the beloved sea sponge has been offered as a playable Sidekick rather than a skin. The Sidekick will launch with multiple outfits, giving players a range of permanent looks to choose from each time they call Patrick into battle.
Aside from the new skins, the Wave 2 drop also showcases fresh pickaxes, back blings, and other cosmetics that keep players engaged with the evolving partnership.
Upcoming Release and Countdown
Although Epic Games has yet to set an official release date, the consensus points to a July 24, 2026 launch in the Fortnite Item Shop, scheduled for 8 PM ET. Fans preparing for this drop are encouraged to monitor the Item Shop closely and await the official announcement from Epic.
Will the answerable charm of SpongeBob and the sharp edge of Ice Spice satisfy the competitive spirit of Fortnite players? The new wave will be available for download and purchase, offering fresh visual flair and functional immersive features for those eager to upgrade their battlefield presence.
