HINTS: Fortnite has had several Predator Easter Eggs around Stealthy Stronghold for a long time

For starters, the long-teased Fortnite Predator skin looks to soon be becoming a reality. After plenty of hints at its development in audio logs, Easter Eggs in Stealthy Stronghold and more, we think now is the time it will finally arrive.

The Predator skin fits perfectly with Fortnite Season 5's hunter theme, so it will be a very welcomed addition alongside the Mandalorian, Kratos, and others.

We also have some reason to believe a Fortnite Terminator skin may be following suit!

Update 15.21 Patch Notes

They aren't exactly formal Fortnite Update 15.21 patch notes - but we do have a couple of reveals from Epic Games that we can count on alongside our hopes for a Predator and Terminator skin.

OTHER WORLDLY: Fortnite is about to get a dangerous new character skin

These additions were revealed on the Fortnite Status Twitter, and include the following:

  • New Boss Character
  • New Mythic Item
  • Jungle Hunter Quests
  • IO Guards removed from Arena

With these alongside some massive new character skins, this patch could be a fan favourite for Season 5.
