'Fortnite' Will Add Rick And Morty Skin In Season 7 Or 8, Leak Claims

Several leakers have shared new Fortnite Character Skins on social media. Some claim that they will be published in Chapter 2 - Season 7 or in the reported upcoming Season 8.

This comes after the stated shooting game's Patch 17.40 Update, which included any new material that may have been added to the game.

The stated leaks include photographs and social media clips of the abovementioned Character Skins, which were previously unreleased until the leakers made them public. Character Skins will complement an existing skin and a movie-inspired skin and a new addition to the Icon Series.

Players should keep in mind that these leaks were unconfirmed by the game's developers and could change at any time.

Morty Smith, one of Rick and Morty's two main characters, was one of the supposed character skins leaked and rumored to be released.

The skin could commemorate the previously available Rick Sanchez Character Skin, which was provided as a Battle Pass prize during Season 7 few months ago.

According to Gamespot, Morty will use a mech suit identical to the one used by Snowball in the original TV cartoon series. It was also seen in leaked photographs released on the leaker's Twitter accounts. This is to maintain a hitbox that is comparable to other Fortnite heroes.

A backpack-like Back Bling and a Schwifty emote, which allows it to perform the "Gotta Get Schwifty" song, are included with the Morty Character Skin. It's also said to contain a space snake pickaxe, which could be inspired by the astronaut suit-wearing snakes who tried to attack Morty in an episode.

Prior to this, Morty had an "appearance" in the game, although it was simply a hammer-shaped pickaxe weapon that was released alongside the Rick Character Skin at the Season 7 Launch.

Aside from Morty, other people were speculated to be appearing in Fortnite as Character Skins once the leaks were made public.

PC Gamer said Will Smith, who played Detective Mike Lowrey in the Bad Boys flicks, is supposed to join the island as a Character Skin in the game.

The character's appearance in the first Bad Boys film in 1995 influenced the skin's design, which included a black turtleneck sweater and pistol holsters.

According to Dot Esports, gamers can also purchase the suspected "Detective's Duffle" back bling and the "Loose Cannon Cutters" pickaxes aside from the Mike Lowrey Skin.

Finally, leakers stated that the game's Icon Character Skin series will be expanded with Colombian musician J Balvin.

The musician, who completed multiple projects with names such as Skrillex, Bad Bunny, and Dua Lipa, will also appear in the game as a Character Skin. Much like the Mike Lowrey Character Skin, it was made much like its real-life counterpart.

The "Real" back bling and pickaxe, as well as the "In Da Party" emote and the "Balvin Cruise" glider, will be available for the mentioned Skin.

The same leakers also revealed that "Bim Bam Toi," a song by French artist Carla, will be featured in Fortnite. According to PC Gamer, the song will be used as an emote in the game. It was France's entry in the 2019 Junior Eurovision song contest.

Bim Bam Toi came in fifth place in the said singing competition, but went viral on Tiktok in December 2019 and topped Spotify France's Top 50 Viral charts.

Epic Games, the creators of Fortnite, have yet to comment on whether or not the rumors are accurate as of this writing. The leakers, on the other hand, did not provide any other information on the Character Skins, including potential release dates.

They can, however, be obtained in the game's Item Shop, where they can be purchased separately or as part of a package, just like other Character Skins.
