Fortnite assassins, given that we witnessed a rocket launch of so many Deathstroke, DC, and hype collabs, tonight’s shop item looks genuinely good. The tweet from ShiinaBR put the details onto the plate while the community actually lost it trying to get a piece of everything. So let us break down the treats before the FOMO takes over.
First things first, Deathstroke stands in one big spotlight, staring everybody down, and a plethora of DC stuff continues to join Paradise. There are four menus for DC just to begin with, which is crazy as most of the times Epic tries to space these things out. If you asked to get the Battle Ready or Get Your Kicks cosmetics, well, now is your time to cop big.
Reaction-wise, it seems to be a mix of everything- somewhat positive, with Welsh Witcher actually saying Deathstroke was her “go-to for this season.” Other players are…well, unimpressed. Chipmaster69 went on about how Epic keeps recycling the same old DC skins rather than fresh ones like Supergirl or Lex Luthor. Now, is that not a fair enough point to talk about? Where is the love, Epic, for the underrated DC characters?
That debate on the design of Deathstroke was raging as well, with zzzWiseWill saying that Deathstroke had a “stupid nose impression” on the mask, and further Besty Battalion weighing in that the only thing they hated was the mask. Jake Sandvik came along to save everyone with a suggested edit style, which was to have white hair with an eyepatch and WOULD be sick.
But it’s about to get even messier. Some players considered the non-cell-shaded Deadpool as Battle Pass exclusive, but nope, he’s here too, and Shadow was shaken. Meanwhile, the rest are demanding Ash Williams outright (geraltrrivia demanded that), T-800 (TsmCold shouted “WHERE IS T-800 SHIINA”), and even Travis Scott (TheRealShork sarcastically asked “WhErE iS tRaViS sCoTt”). The list of requests never ends, and Epic certainly has an entire wish as a department to go through.
Oh yeah, Black Adam stans. _samurai077YT and mtkdriano are begging for the return of Black Adam as well, especially since the first DC skin to get a Lego style hasn’t been seen for ages. And it’s like come on, Epic, show him some love.
Then Khomus just dropped a truth bomb by saying that this item shop is so top-level that Epic probably won’t reach this level for quite some time. And TBH, they are correct. Infrequently, the Fortnite Item Shop really solos, followed by weeks of lounging on the mediocre additions. So if you are sitting in a corner with some V-Bucks giving you torturous stares, do consider spending them tonight.
Else, quite meh. xSonGoku69x, shrugged “dont care, got SF,” soon after Denzel Patterson demanded Ruby and the SRT Hellcat. Priorities, man.
So what’s the verdict? Definitely one to catch tonight with the store, especially for DC lovers or rare skins.: Deathstroke is a definite pick, DC is loaded, and they probably won’t yet see rotation this soon. But if you hold for Ash Williams or T-800… well, I guess keep holding.
And if anybody’s asking about the Battle Bus skin? GawwthTV failed to claim it by a day and is wondering when they will be brought back to the store. Epic, this FOMO is a cruel one.
Okay, well, that is a wrap! The shop is live, the wallets are in danger, and the reply section is absolute chaos; classic Fortnite. So grab it before it goes away.
