Cosmetic items are a vital part of the Fortnite experience, allowing players to showcase their style with an array of cool skins. Epic Games has implemented a dynamic store model where existing skins cycle through the store regularly, often resulting in long waits for popular items. For instance, Master Chief made a comeback after a two-year absence, while original skins like Renegade Raider and Aerial Assault Trooper returned after even longer intervals. However, fans of the Arcane series might never see Jinx and Vi return to the Fortnite shop.
The demand for the main characters from Arcane to reappear in Fortnite has surged, especially following the release of the show's second season. Unfortunately, Riot Games co-founder Marc "Tryndamere" Merrill dampened these hopes during a live stream. He stated that the possibility of bringing back these skins hinges on Riot Games, who only collaborated for the first season of Arcane. In response to the ensuing wave of disappointment on social media, Merrill attempted to soften the blow by promising to discuss the issue with his team, though he offered no guarantees.
It's advisable not to set high expectations for the return of these skins. While the potential revenue from their sales could benefit Riot Games, the idea of using their intellectual property to drive players from League of Legends to Fortnite doesn't align well with their interests. With League of Legends facing its own challenges, any shift of its player base to Fortnite due to these skins would be unwelcome.
While the situation might evolve in the future, for now, it's best to keep expectations in check and not build false hopes.
