As of March 19, on Chapter 7 Season 2 launch day, Tung Tung Tung Sahur is not in Fortnite.

The Tung Tung Tung Sahur rumor surfaced when Fortnite appeared to tease Italian Brainrot characters. The ‘Typical day in the life of our Spawn Island Manager’ video attracted a lot of likes and attention, but Sherlock Holmes-esque fans noticed Tung Tung Tung Sahur in it.

It seemed a strong possibility that the AI character would be in Chapter 7 Season 2, especially from the beginning. However, Insider Gaming can confirm that this is not the case. You need to wait a bit longer.

Who Is Tung Tung Tung Sahur? Italian Brainrot, Explained

Tung Tung Tung Sahur is an AI-generated character, and one of many in the surrealist ‘Italian Brainrot’ media of AI-created characters.

Italian Brainrot might be one of the best examples of modern-day pop culture. Bizarre phenomena that take off, and Tung Tung Tung Sahur is one of the most popular characters from this trend, alongside Bombardiro Crocodilo and Tralalero Tralala—what is actually happening in 2026?

The incoming addition of Tung Tung Tung Sahur has come with a lot of controversy, with creators and developers admonishing Epic for essentially supporting and profiting from AI-generated content. Despite the criticism, it looks like Epic and Fortnite will go ahead with this crossover, and you should have the chance to buy Tung Tung Tung Sahur in the future.

Do you support the idea of having Tung Tung Tung Sahur in Fortnite? Or is it poor taste to support AI content when other designers and developers in the world could be rewarded for their work instead? Let us know through the Insider Gaming Discord.
