Fortnite‘s v5.20 patch is here, and while a new LTM (Steady Storm) and new weapon (legendary double pump) have been added to the game, what everyone really wants to see are the new leaks that always come with patches this big. And Fortnite‘s ever-expanding leaking community has delivered in spades, with my go-to this week being newcomer CrossLeaks.
There are a whole host of new skins and cosmetics to check out, but as cool as some of them are, we are now in week 5/6 content here, and there are no signs of any more historical themed skins to join the Vikings we saw when the season launched. Well, there is a pair of ’80s skins, but I’m not counting that as “historical.” I’m really not sure what’s going on with the rift/time travel theme, which appears to have evaporated almost entirely after launch, but I guess we just have to enjoy what is actually making its way into Fortnite.
Check out the full gallery of skins, pickaxes, back bling, gliders and emotes below, and start saving those V-bucks for the ones you want. I’ve listed the rarities next to them as well so you can know how much they’re going to cost when they do arrive. There’s everything from the long-awaited Durr Burger mascot skin to motorcycle ninjas and a possible Android exclusive. See them all for yourself below:
Mullet Marauder (Epic)
Aerobic Assassin (Epic)
Wow, Epic really rubbing salt in the wounds of Radical Heights over here. That’s just mean.
Beef Boss (Epic)
Everyone knew that this skin would arrive eventually, and once again Epic has pulled essentially the entire thing from a fan creation, down to the back bling and pickaxe which you’ll see later. I really hope they give those fans…some money?
P.A.N.D.A. Team Leader (Legendary)
Alright we’re running out of Cuddle Bears to do here. Strikes me as odd that out of every skin here this is the only legendary one, but okay.
Overtaker (Epic)
Whiteout (Epic)
These two look rather tame, just sort of like white versions of the motorcycle skins that already exist, but once you see their back bling, you learn that these two are actually motorcycle ninjas and they get a whole lot cooler.
Sushi Master (Rare)
Sushi Master is officially in the running for the most handsome Fortnite skin and I will fight you if you say otherwise.
Galaxy (Epic)
This is uh, interesting. Like a texture reskin of a no-skin, essentially? I like the galactic pattern, but it seems like it should have been put on a different body besides mustache soldier man. This…might be an Android/Samsung exclusive skin, as it’s supposedly not in the item shop. Get it? Galaxy?
Filet Axe (Rare)
This should be the axe for our charming sushi friend, and it’s pretty wicked.
Jingu Bang (Rare)
I don’t actually know what this is, but it looks like Wukong should be wielding it.
Patty Whacker (Uncommon)
Here’s Beef Boss’s axe that was part of the original fan skin.
Axercise (Uncommon)
This seems rather top heavy to be used as a striking device but okay.
Boombox (Epic)
Probably the best thing to come out of the ’80s skin set I’ve seen.
Back Plate (Epic)
Hopefully running around with an extra 25 pounds strapped to your back does not make you slower.
Chef’s Choice (Rare)
More sushi accessories. I’m starting to get hungry looking at all this.
Ignition (Epic)
Lane Splitter (Epic)
See, I told you that these motorcycle skins would get awesome. These two are going to be used on a lot of different skins, I’m guessing. I expect Ninja to use these frequently, considering Epic is never going to give him an actual ninja skin.
Bamboo (Legendary)
I mean what other back bling would a panda have?
Deep Fried (Epic)
The Beef Boss back bling that fan invented. Supposedly we’re going to get Durr Burger food as consumables soon, but not yet, it seems.
Windbreaker (Uncommon)
Too bright for my taste.
Flying Saucer (Epic)
This had better shoot out ketchup and mustard out of the back as you fly or it’s not worth it.
White Squall (Epic)
Cyclone (Epic)
A pair of cool upside-down bikes for our new ninja friends.
Pumpernickel (Rare)
This is probably a reference to a meme I’m forgetting.
Llama Bell (Epic)
This was a meme before memes were memes. Yes, it does include the Will Ferrell hip movements as the emote progresses.
Go! Go! Go! (Uncommon)
What, you can have a “Chug Jug,” but can’t just call this “Chug! Chug! Chug!” Epic?
Work It Out (Rare)
Some goofy ’80s jazzercise moves that probably will come with wicked good/bad music.
Hot Stuff (Uncommon)
Hard to tell what this is from the picture alone, but seeing it in motion, it’s the old “lick your finger and press it to your butt making a sizzle noise,” which I’m sure will delight a certain section of the audience who will be frequently using this on a certain selection of skins.
So again, weird that we seem to never be getting any more historical/time travel skins, and this should be at least the next 2-3 weeks of shop items, so I’m growing convinced that Vikings may be it, or we might not be moving to a new time period until next season. We’ll see. Which of these are you going to run out and buy as soon as they hit the stores?
