Of course, aside from its crossovers,Fortnitehas its own recognizable original designs as well, including in-game skins like Jonesy, Fishstick, and the Skull Trooper.

Over on Twitter, popularFortnitenews account FortniteINTEL posted concept art showing 8 unique skins not yet in the game, thought to bea part of Chapter 2 Season 6.The skins were posted on art showcase platform ArtStation, and were reportedly designed by Kevuru Games, an art production and game development outsourcing studio known to have worked with Epic Games to createFortniteskins in the past.
Unlikemany otherFortniteskin leaks,this was not datamined, as the artwork can still be viewed by anyone on the ArtStation platform. In another tweet, FortniteINTEL notes that while many other dataminers and leakers have deleted their tweets on the possible leaked skins in order to protect the studio, the artwork was posted by Kevuru Games itself, has been up for 8 days, and doesn’t seem to be unintentionally posted as it likely would have been taken down by either Epic Games or the studio by now. TheFortnitenews account also mentioned that it is very likely that these potentially leaked skins are not upcoming Battle Pass skins, and are likely scrapped concepts.
FortniteINTEL finally reassured fans that this ArtStation post by Kevuru Games is completely within its ability and is no different from Xbox or PlayStation changing the game’s launch icon. Of course, despite all this, while players may not seethese newFortniteskin conceptscome to the game at all, they could just as easily come to fruition either as they are shown in the studio’s post or with some new tweaks.
On Twitter, fans have already taken quite a liking to these potential skins, dubbing one of them “kid Midas” in reference toFortnite’s popular Midas skin, whichjust received a female counterpart.Regardless of this leak’s validity, fans are excited to drop in Chapter 2 Season 6 next Tuesday, as the upcoming Zero Crisis Finale is “sure to shape reality as we know it.”
Fortniteis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
