The partnership was initially suggested with the hero's iconic training routine: "100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and a 10km run! Every day!!!" Shortly after, the official announcement came accompanied by a classic Saitama phrase: "It ended with another punch... Damn it!!! "
Created by ONE in 2009 as a webcomic, One Punch Man received a digital remake with art by Yusuke Murata in 2012, serialized on Tonari no Young Jump . However, in the West, the work is published by Viz Media in Weekly Shonen Jump .
The first season of the anime, produced by studio MADHOUSE , premiered in 2015 and quickly became a worldwide phenomenon. The second season, animated by JC Staff , premiered in 2019. The third season was announced in August 2024 and will premiere in October of this year, also marking the anime's 10th anniversary .
The arrival of Saitama reinforces Epic's strategy of integrating major Japanese franchises into the Fortnite universe. However, prior to One Punch Man , the game had already featured collaborations with Naruto , Dragon Ball , Attack on Titan , and Jujutsu Kaisen , all with enormous success among fans.
With the confirmation, players are eagerly waiting to discover which exclusive items and game modes will accompany the strongest hero in the anime universe.
