There’s some spooky new cosmetics coming for Fortnite according to the latest leak. Discovered by data-miners, the Halloween skins are set to arrive just in time of the witching hour.
The skins were uncovered by Twitter user ‘MystxcLeaks’. Sadly, there are no images to see what they’ll look like, but we do know their code names.
Reason there are no pictures is because they arent in the files. AT ALL. Basically we are leaking things from future updates!
