When theFortniteSeason 6 trailer launched, many believed it hinted at thepossible return of Skull Trooper.Moreover, it seemed likely that this rare and beloved skin would release around the time of Halloween. While this remains a possibility, it seems like Epic also has something else in mind: a female Skull Ranger.
Although there is no concrete image yet, the Skull Ranger is included in some code forFortnitealongside other Halloween-inspired skins. It wouldn’t be a stretch of the imagination if the skin looked very similar to the Skull Trooper but with a feminine body. Of course, this should be taken with a grain of salt, as according to the leaker, the coding itself isn’t in the game yet. Check it out below:
Nevertheless, the coding is quite extensive and ranges from skins to pickaxes and more. The leaked information follows:
Pickaxes
Glider
Building off the potential of a Skull Trooper return, these files indicate a pickaxe and glider associated with the fan-favorite skin. However, it also could potentially mean that the Skull Ranger would be using these cosmetic items. Regardless, until something official happens, we simply don’t know. Considering the popularity of the game and the Skull-themed skin, it would be surprising if neither of the aforementioned skins appeared.
