The official description Fortnite has given to the skin is “Engineered in the shadows for combat performance.” It is to be noted that the original character’s tagline was “Engineered for combat performances.” Further, while no confirmation about the date is forthcoming, the skin can be expected to hit the market in the next few weeks.

Regardless, Fortnite has seen a steady stream of new features and cosmetics over the past few weeks, and it appears that the same is going to continue for quite some time to come!

Further, this is happening at just the right time. Fortnite has seen a stagnation of sorts with respect to its user base over the past few year, and the new equipment will go a long way in reigniting the spark!
