In Fortnite: Battle Royale, a special skin has been released. The “Chicken Trooper” Tender Defender. It was invented by a child and is finally in the game. Additionally, the shop offerings for the rest of the month have been revealed.
What is the Chicken Skin all about? Some time ago, 9-year-old Fortnite fan Connor drew his own skin design: a chicken soldier named “Chicken Trooper”. The boy’s father posted the drawing online on Reddit.
It received over 40,000 upvotes and the image went viral. Many fans created fan art of the skin. There were increasing calls for the skin to be officially included in the game.
Chicken Trooper is really coming! These demands intensified after more and more clues about the skin emerged. First, a chicken glider appeared in data leaks, then observant players discovered chicken feathers at a camp in the game.
Now, the Chicken Trooper, known as “Tender Defender”, is truly available as an epic skin in the game. This makes Connor and his family extremely happy. Additionally, Epic is said to have paid them a reward as the creators of the skin.
The shop offerings for November have been leaked
When will the Chicken Trooper be available in the shop? The crazy chicken will be available today and over the weekend, from November 23 to 24. Thanks to a leak, we also know what else will be available for the rest of the month:
