Epic Games introduced Fortnite’s Season 10 on August 1. Until recently, Fortnite was running on v10.20 wherein it brought us many new features including the new ‘Zapper Trap’ along with the return of Kevin Cube, bug fixes, and minor improvements. Then just last week arrived the v10.30. And now, ‘s1I0x‘, a renowned Fortnite data miner has leaked a pair of new skin including an ‘Area 51 skin’.
If you are someone who enjoys being active on social media, you mush be familiar with the ‘Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop Us All‘ meme. However, if you aren’t familiar, let me inform you that this meme took over the internet when the hype around the mysterious ‘Area 51’ forced US citizens to organize a raid on the premises which is believed to be a place where the US government is hiding aliens. The raid is planned for September 20th. But what’s even more interesting is that this meme is very likely making its way into the gaming world with Fortnite taking the first steps.

In his tweet, s1I0x tweeted of two new skins, one is an alien-themed dress with Area 51 badge on it, going by the name ‘Traveller Skin’. Another skin which was leaked is a female version of Valentine’s Dat Love Ranger, who arrives with s1I0x back bling.
However, there hasn’t been an official announcement made by Epic Games yet but considering Fortnite’s earlier involvement in pop culture updates, we can at least expect the arrival of ‘Traveller‘ skin sometime around 20th September. Moreover, with Season 11 to kick-off next month, we can expect Epic Games to come up with big changes as rumours of a new map have been spotted surfacing the internet in the recent times.
