DisneyThough Marvel Rivals has yet to introduce Daredevil, leaks suggest Fortnite will soon add two new Marvel skins in the wake of Born Again’s ongoing run on Disney+.
Daredevil originally hit the Fortnite Item Shop in October 2020 for a Chapter 2 Season 4 update. Though comic-accurate skin returned for a limited time when the Born Again series premiered on Disney+, the character still hasn’t received any extra Edit Styles.
New leaks indicate that may change in the near future. Plus, Born Again may be the reason why another beloved vigilante finally makes their Fortnite debut.
Fortnite leaks claim Daredevil and Punisher skins are incoming
In response to posts about hopeful Daredevil content coming to Fortnite, industry insider Shpeshal_Nick said he’s been told a new variant is in the works. He also stated that Epic Games also plans on adding The Punisher to the game.
The insider told fans, “I think I can say that I’ve been told both The Punisher and a new Daredevil variant are both supposed to be coming.”
To further support his claim, Shpeshal_Nick also said he’s been able to corroborate this information with well-known Fortnite leaker Loolo_WRLD.
Still, it’s worth remembering that these leaks should be taken with a grain of salt, given that Epic Games remains silent on the matter.
DisneyThis leak comes as Marvel Rivals players continue to push for developer NetEase to introduce Daredevil to the hero shooter’s roster.
Along with several X-Men characters, he counts among the most requested additions. However, NetEase has not so much as teased a Daredevil update, though the community had hoped news of some kind would surface alongside the release of Born Again on Disney+.
