According to the latest Fortnite leaks, it would appear that Epic Games will be collaborating with The Simpsons. This comes as no surprise, given that other cartoon characters such as Rick and Morty, Peter Griffin, and others have been added to the Metaverse. If anything, this proves that similar collaborations will occur over the coming seasons.
The information was shared by popular Fortnite leaker SamLeakss, who received details of this collaboration from an anonymous source. SamLeakss had earlier shared details about the upcoming Fortnite x Disney Shop and Avatar collaboration as well. As such, it would appear that the information is solid.
The post was reshared by veteran Fortnite leaker HYPEX, who has been right about uncountable collaborations in the past. Having him share the post solidifies the fact that something could indeed be in development. That said, here's more on the reported collaboration.
Note: This article is based on speculation, readers are advised to take the information with a grain of salt.

Fortnite leaks hint at Simpsons collaborations, Springfield could become a POI
While there are hints of a collaboration, no details regarding the nitty-gritty of it have been mentioned. Everything is currently open to speculation. However, based on past collaborations with other aforementioned cartoons, a few conclusions can be drawn.
The Simpsons collaboration with Fortnite could feature a few characters that exist on the show. Homer will undoubtedly be the star, as was the case with Peter Griffin from Family Guy. Marge, Bart, and Lisa Simpson could be added as well. Other cosmetics such as Back Blings, Emotes, Gliders, and Pickaxes will no doubt also be part of the collaboration.
While The Simpsons' family will be the star attraction, others from Springfield could be a part of the collaboration as well. This could include Moe Szyslak, Ned Flanders, Apu, Krusty the Clown, Mr. Burns, and the hard-to-forget Sideshow Bob.
Given how big of a deal The Simpsons are (since they can supposedly predict the future), Springfield could be added as a POI. If not the entire town, perhaps key buildings located within the town may become a part of the Battle Royale title. The top contender would likely be Moe's Tavern. It is perhaps the most iconic building in the entire franchise after the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant.
Although Fortnite leaks regarding this collaboration are slim, with Family Guy having collaborated, The Simpsons will have the spotlight as well. This is solely based on the fact that the franchise is owned by Disney. Following the Fortnite D23 showcase revealing major collaborations, it's safe to say that Disney is bringing everything, including the kitchen sink, to the Metaverse.
