The rumors of another concert were backed by a leak ofdata files that contained Houston rapper, Travis Scott. However, despite these data files being found, there was no release or announcement about a collaboration with Travis Scott, who is a long-time fan ofFortnite. After two months of waiting, a possible leak was found by the famousFortniteleaker, HypeX. The photo shows a blurry Travis Scott skin next to what looks like an unreleased Ramirez skin.
Although the leak has not been confirmed by its source, the skin shown in the picture is undoubtedly Travis Scott. The character is wearing Travis Scott’s signature shoe, proven by the Nike Swoosh and the brown and white colorway. The character is also shirtless, showing the rapper’s tattoos and famous chain necklace.
The one part of the character model that is not perfectly accurate is the absence of Travis Scott’s famous long braids. One question raised is the appropriateness of the skin.Fortniteis typically marketed to both children and adults, andFortnitehas always been careful to not make content too mature. A shirtless skin may cause an uproar from parents who want to monitor what their child is playing.
A collaboration with Travis Scott would be huge forFortnite. Many celebrities bring attention to the game and Travis Scott is one of the heaviest influencers in the music community. He has previously played with Ninja, and famously called in-game bandages, band-aids, which sparked manyFortnitememes. If a Travis Scott skin is added, it couldquickly become one of the most sought out skinsin the game.
Fortniteis out now for iOS, Android, PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
