After the update 12.61, data miners found a legendary Fortnite skin that is set to be released soon. This provides hints as to how the live event of Season 2 might unfold.
What kind of skin is it? Today, on May 26, 2020, update 12.61 was released. In the files of Fortnite, data miners were able to find a legendary skin that is set to be released soon.
This skin has a ball as a head, very reminiscent of the doomsday device seen in Midas’s office. The skin could play a crucial role in the live event of Season 2 taking place on May 30.
This is what the leaked skin looks like:
However, it’s not just the appearance of the legendary skin that causes speculation, but also the labels of the items. “Conquer the Storm” and “Wherever the Wind Blows” are the lines.
Could a hurricane cause the flooding?
How could the live event unfold according to the hints? The leaked skin provides hints of a storm and wind. This indicates a hurricane that could hit the island.
Around the agency, one can find 5 items that contain a purple substance inside. This resembles the storm that every Fortnite player knows from the rounds. Perhaps the energies for the upcoming storm are stored there.
A leaked loading screen shows even more hints about the story of Midas, the leader of the agents. It shows him looking at a suit that resembles the new skin.
Looking closely at the image, there is a reflected face that looks like the woman whose picture is found in Midas’s office. Could this be his daughter, wife, or sister?
Perhaps Midas will wear the suit and summon a hurricane with the doomsday device that will flood the island. After all, all hints and leaks point to the fact that the map of Season 3 is completely flooded.
The hints lead to theories that the live event could be huge, especially if natural disasters are involved. How the event will unfold remains a surprise that hopefully all players can experience live.
