The Shape is on his way to Fortnite, and thanks to prominent Fortnite leakers, we may now know when the masked killer will actually be available.
According to prominent Fortnite leakers ShiinaBR, SpushFNBR and NotPaloleaks, the Michael Myers skin should be going live on the Fortnite store just in time for Halloween. In fact, assuming they’re correct, he’ll be coming just one day after Jack Skellington’s potential arrival on the store and completing the trio of guest characters available as part of this year’s Fortnitemares celebrations.
Here’s what we know
Fortnite Michael Myers release date prediction
According to a Tweet from ShiinaBR – corroborating information from fellow Fortnite leakers SpushFNBR and Notpaloleaks – Michael Myers will be available in the Fortnite store from October 24, 2023 at the store’s usual refresh time of 8pm ET/5pm PT/1am BST.
Like other collections in the store – it won’t be just his skin in the bundle. However, at the time of writing Epic Games has yet to confirm the names of the additional items. However, from the official images, it looks like he’ll come with his trademark Kitchen Knife as a pickaxe, a carved pumpkin (based on the one from the original movie’s classic opening credits sequence) as Back Bling, and an emote of Michael playing the keyboard, that fans have sussed seems to be a reference to a performance on US reality show America’s Got Talent. (Yes, really.)
It was previously assumed by many members of the community that Myers’ arrival may not come until after the upcoming V-Bucks price hike on October 28, but it looks like he’s a little bit early – which is good news for those wanting to stock up before V-Bucks prices increase.
