SUMMARY
  • Fortnite gamers are about to get a new Deadpool skin.
  • Leaks suggest an upcoming Item Shop update will get this skin but players aren't happy with it.
  • Despite this not getting expected reactions, it will be the second-last collaboration of the season, according to the leaks.

Epic Games has been constantly on the mission to find new exciting collaboration ideas for Fortnite. Since the game was released, in the last seven years, there have been numerous collaborations, and very naturally, not all of them are positively accepted by gamers. A recent Item Shop update brought a skin that kind of hinted at Epic Games losing creative ideas for the game. 

Cosmetic items are the key aspects behind Fortnite’s massive popularity. Not only the Item Shop, but players can even get different cosmetic items from the Battle Pass and by completing quests as well. While bringing new skins and cosmetic items every season, the game has introduced a few that players never liked.

Fortnite Is Receiving a New Skin That Merges Deadpool With the Worst Skin Ever

Fortnite players received a lot of Deadpool-related cosmetic items during this Marvel season.

Fortnite and Marvel collaborations are quite common, and considering the entire Chapter 5 Season 4 is dedicated to Marvel, more related content is expected. Well, Epic Games has been efficiently working on bringing new creative skins, back blings, weapon wraps, emotes, etc., to the game, but the recent leaks suggest that the developer is out of ideas. 

Since Chapter 5 Season 4 was released, Epic Games has emphasized the presence of Deadpool with skins and even with new emotes that capture the moves of the character exactly as shown in the movies. 

According to leakers, the game is once again about to release a Deadpool mashup, but this time, it looks ridiculous.

The look of Fishpool has been circulating among the community, and almost all the renowned leakers have shared the update of this skin making its way to the Deadpool bundle with the next Item Shop rotation.

The Fishpool Skin Hasn’t Had a Good Reception From Fans

The game even has an emote for gamers that captures the moves of this character properly.

If you are a veteran player, it won’t take much time to decode which skins are combined to make this Fishpool skin. This is a mashup of the Deadpool skin with one of the worst skins, Fishstick, in the Fortnite universe.

While the skin doesn’t look appealing to fans, there’s one more item that will make its way to the game, and that’s the Kelp-Corn Bucket. This one looks quite similar to the head of Fishpool. Anyway, players are frustrated with this collaboration and, more specifically, the Fishpool skin. 

Though Fishstick skins have been in the game for a long time, it appears that players never liked them.

There were positive reactions as well, where players expressed their wish to purchase this skin. 

However, according to one authentic leaker, Shiina, if the game doesn’t release any surprise collaboration, the Fishpool skin and the back bling are going to be parts of the season’s second-last Marvel collaboration.
