Fortnite fans are eagerly waiting for the return of the Arcane-themed skins, featuring characters Jinx and Vi, inspired by the Netflix series Arcane: League of Legends. These iconic skins were last seen in the Fortnite Item Shop on February 5, 2022, making them some of the rarest cosmetics in the game.
Current Speculations About the Return of Arcane Skins
Despite the lack of any official announcement, recent events have sparked new hopes. Riot Games co-founder Marc Merrill acknowledged a fan request urging the return of these skins. Although Merrill’s response was just a repost, it has raised speculation among players.
Earlier reports suggested that these skins might never return. However, Merrill’s engagement and the integration of the Arcane skins with Fortnite’s Kicks (shoes) provide a glimmer of hope. Players remain optimistic that Epic Games might reintroduce the skins in the future.
What Could Signal Their Return?
- Cosmetic Updates: New features or updates to the Jinx and Vi skins could indicate an upcoming release.
- Cross-Promotion with Arcane Season 2: Many fans expected the skins to coincide with the launch of Arcane Season 2, but the episodes were released without any updates about the skins.
- Community Pressure: As fans continue to push for their return, Epic Games may respond positively.
For now, Fortnite players must remain patient and keep an eye out for further announcements. The Arcane Fortnite skins have become highly desirable, and recent hints suggest their return might not be out of reach. Until then, speculation continues, and fans can only hope Epic Games and Riot Games collaborate once again.
