‘Fortnite’ Adds New Skins For Season 2, Chapter 2

If you, dear reader, are anything like me, you will not be watching the whole five hour long YouTube video that highlights the new gameplay features and skins for Fortnite Season 2. I’ll make things easier for the both of us, and summarize the update in less than five hours.

‘Gear Specialist Maya’ is one of the first purchasable characters the game released with this update. Maya look similar to the default player that we’ve all been playing with since the first days of the game. Except Maya has a t-shirt on, and some complimentary Doc Marten boots. Oh yeah, and this character’s skin and clothing is totally customizable.

Another skin being released is the ‘Agent Peely’ skin, which appears to be the love-child of James Bond and a ripe Chiquita banana. Peely also has some big eyes that are reminiscent of aviator sunglasses. Truly the top banana.

Perhaps the most generic character to be released into the game, is the ‘Brutus’ character. Much like Popeye’s archnemesis in the 1920s, Brutus is a big, big boy. Brutus is a muscular and bald man in aviators, who could probably smack you around with just his finger tips. His tough appearance did not stop anyone from making fun of him though memes and jokes.

‘Tntina’ [pronounced TNT-na] has the appearance of someone whose wardrobe hasn’t been updated since 2008. Her shirts all play off of her explosive image. The internet has showed this skin nothing but love and affection.

Furr real, this character is like a centaur, but way cuter. ‘Meowscles’ is a half-cat and half-human hybrid creature with furry muscles that rival Brutus’. Meowscles is also strapped with suspenders, light wash jeans, and a two pistol holsters made totally of jean material. We’re not kitten when we say that this is one purrfect skin for you to try out. I’m sorry, I’ll stop with the clawful puns now.

Another female character being added to the game is ‘Skye.’ She’s been designed to look more like a teenager, as opposed to an adult or half-creature. Her in-game character always wears a beanie, and carries around a colorful, disposable camera that will document all of her in-game victories.

The final character to be released, is ‘Midas.’ The character is appropriately made out of gold. In fact, everything Midas drops in-game, actually turns into gold. In addition to his very dapper suit and hard-parted hair, Midas has captured the hearts and minds of many fans online.

The battle pass will cost players around 950 V-Bucks. 1000 V-bucks can be purchased for $10, or by earning it by playing matches. If you want to buy more than 1000, you won’t have to worry about the government taxing it!
