A new season arrives in Fortnite, and Chapter 4, Season 2 offers a great amount of new content. As per usual, the most visually striking intrigue of a new season of Fortnite is within the Battlepass. This time around, Chapter 4, Season 2 has a theme based around Neo-Tokyo, bringing some unique Augments and skins to Fortnite.
With a total of 9 new Battlepass skins, there’s a skin for every player. Whether the player is excited about the newest and best collabs in Fortnite, or the original skins that the developers produce, Fortnite Chapter 4, Season 2 has some great skins.
8 Highwire
“Chaos is a game, and she always wins.” Highwire is not a bad skin, but as far as the theme of Neo-Tokyo goes, it doesn’t fit with the futuristic and unique designs. Highwire’s skin seems to be a demolitionist or a rebel. The bunny ears hood is the best thing about this outfit, but is not an uncommon addition.
With the Highwire skin, some players may be thrown off by the fact that there are bunny ears to peek over hills. Although it can’t be said if these bunny ears have a hitbox, it still makes the skin more unreasonable bait than others, unless players take it into the best Creative maps to play for fun over competition.
7 Imani
“Embrace the past. Create the future.” Imani immediately draws the eyes of the player thanks to the cel-shaded design. Cel shading is not new to Fortnite, but it always makes skins more interesting, as it’s a great way to blend the 2D elements with the 3D elements. However, other than this effect, Imani doesn’t have much to stand out.
Imani wears a classic pair of 3D vintage glasses, and a rather fashionable jumper and skirt. Even Imani's giant boots are bound to draw some interest, but considering some skins are collaborations with other franchises and flaming skeletons, Imani doesn’t offer much other than a fashion sense.
6 Mystica
“Fabled survivor. Luminary mind.” The description of Mystica’s outfit raises questions about this person’s being. Mystica has become something more than human, more than the average Looper. It’s no surprise that this outfit is such a mystery, it’s literally in the name.
The exposed skin of this costume moves as if masked in cosmic energy, and the attire that this character wears seems to be armor made from materials of a different dimension. Mystica is cool-looking skin, but sadly doesn’t fly in-game.
5 Mizuki
“The depth of the ocean. The rage of the storm.” Players won't need a vault location to unlock this skin, but it will still require the player to reach level 86 to unlock Page 13 in the Battlepass for the Mizuki outfit. It’s the last skin players can obtain, with accessibility on Page 13 after reaching level 86. The skin is regal, yet still features the determination and garb of a warrior.
If players want to take Mizuki’s style even further, the River Empress Mizuki skin is a great choice. This outfit features some vibrant blues, that may be hard to grind all battle stars in Fortnite, but it’s worth it for players that want to feel and look like an empress.
4 Stray
“Adrift, but never lost.” When players unlock the Stray outfit in Fortnite, they might be wondering why it does not look like a future-Tokyo take on Drift. Simply unlock the Renegade Stray style to solve this problem. Stray is bound to be a popular skin in Fortnite, as Drift has become one of Fortnite’s most iconic mascots, a true milestone for the game.
Stray is inspired by Drift, which adds further intrigue to the deep lore within Fortnite, as the iconic cat mask has been seen before. Stray is a great skin, but without the Renegade Stray style, it’s just a normal-looking person in some neo-Tokyo-inspired garments.
3 Renzo The Destroyer
“The galaxy’s premier doomfluencer.” Renzo the Destroyer is a rather unique skin and entry into the Fortnite outfits. The flaming mohawk of this character is certainly the most alluring, especially with the interesting animations with the mohawk that makes Renzo the Destroyer a literal hothead.
The outfit pieces for Renzo the Destroyer seem regal and smart, with a fancy pair of pants and a vest. There’s even an interest in what Renzo is, as they seem to be a robotic skeleton. Perhaps this character will add to the Fortnite lore.
2 Thunder
“Street warrior, sushi chef, and the coolest lizard in the Peace Syndicate.” A gangster lizard: that should be enough said. Thunder is one of the coolest skins, and he certainly knows it considering the gold jewelry he wears along with the fashionable red jacket. Perhaps as a great sushi chef he can master the Kinetic Blade Katana.
Thunder certainly brings the drip to Fortnite, and the alternate style of a sushi chef adds even more fun to Thunder’s skin. It’s a great skin to fit with the theme of the season.
1 Eren Jaeger
“If we don’t fight, we can’t win!” Collab skins in Fortnite always have a mixed reception, but more often than not, players celebrate the fact that one of their favorite characters from one of their favorite franchises joins the iconic line-up in Fortnite. Eren Jaeger is the latest collab skin in Fortnite Chapter 4, Season 2 from the Attack on Titan franchise.
Although anime and Attack on Titan may not be for everyone, Eren Jaeger is certainly a cause for celebration. Not only is this character iconic for the franchise he comes from, but it also brings hope that other franchises may one day drop from the battlebus in Fortnite.
Fortnite is available now for Mobile, PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
