Big news from Quentin Tarantino, and no, it doesn't involve that elusive tenth movie of his. Instead, the director is adding on to the beloved duology consisting of Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003) and Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004), with a short titled "The Lost Chapter: Yuki's Revenge." The interesting thing here isn't so much the 20-year-plus gap between Kill Bill's release and "Yuki's Revenge," but the manner in which it's being released.
Spoiler! It involves a partnership with Fortnite. You know, that battle royale game your kid (and adults like me) won't stop playing. This, of course, isn't the first time Fortnite has collaborated with creatives. It has hosted a variety of virtual concerts for big names like Travis Scott, Eminem, and even Ariana Grande. However, "Yuki's Revenge" is something unique, and I will break down everything you need to know about Quentin Tarantino's new Kill Bill movie, including how to watch it, below.
What Is Quentin Tarantino's New' Kill Bill' About?
To clarify, Tarantino's new Kill Bill movie isn't exactly new. It has actually existed for decades, with the eight-minute short just an animated version of a scene that Tarantino originally cut from the film. As Tarantino described in a Q&A (reported by Vice), "This is a lost chapter that I always wanted to see the light of day, and now it has."
Uma Thurman returns for motion-capturing and to voice her character, The Bride, while Miyu Ishidate Roberts steps into the role of Yuki Yubari, the twin sister of Gogo Yubari (Chiaki Kuriyama). Using Unreal Engine and Fortnite models, Epic Games brings Yuki's vengeful fight against The Bride to life in animation. And while Kill Bill more than stands the test of time as an action-packed revenge story filled with beautifully choreographed fights, animation holds exciting possibilities. To quote Tarantino again, "Bringing this into Fortnite sounded cool and felt like a wonderful fit for the game world and the characters."
As a bonus, players can also play as these characters, with The Bride skin (and an alternate Beatrix Kiddo skin) currently available in the Fortnite Chapter 7 Battle Pass. Anyone who logged into Fortnite between November 27 and December 1 should also have received the Yuki Yubari skin for free. Likewise, a Gogo Yubari skin was offered as a free promotional item if you bought tickets for Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair's theatrical release. So, if you've ever dreamed of stepping into The Bride's shoes and gunning down virtual enemies, now is your chance.
How To Watch The New' Kill Bill' Short
"The Lost Chapter: Yuki's Revenge" premiered in Fortnite on November 30, 2025, and, at the time of writing, is still available by navigating to Fortnite's "Discover" tab. (Just do a quick search if it's not showing up on the main page.) While Fortnite is free to play for anyone with the appropriate console, not everyone will want or be able to access the short movie that way.
The good news is that "Yuki's Revenge" will also receive a limited theatrical run alongside the theatrical rerelease of Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair on December 5, 2025. And while those are the only two ways to watch it now, I hypothesize that Quentin Tarantino and Epic Games' animated collab will find its way to streaming, or at the very least, onto a a new Blu-ray edition of Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair at some point.
Is The New 'Kill Bill' Short Canon?
The short answer is yes. "Yuki's Revenge" expands Kill Bill's lore and fleshes out Yuki's quest for vengeance after The Bride took out her twin sister, Gogo Yubari in Vol. 1. Here, we get to see Yuki and The Bride face off in a tense chase. The tension is there, but anyone who has seen Kill Bill in its entirety already knows who will come up on top, so don't expect a big twist, just more of Tarantino's trademark action and stylized violence, although filtered through Fortnite's cartoon violence bearing a Teen rating as opposed to the Kill Bill movies' R sensibilities.
Does this technically make Fortnite's Peely a canon character in Quentin Tarantino's movie universe, too, then? Well, the answer to that is also a resounding yes as funny as that sounds.
