A well-known Fortnite leaker has hinted that a “robber pickle” skin could appear in the Chapter 6 Season 2 battle pass. As Fortnite nears the end of its current season, gamers have witnessed several changes, including a brand-new map, a revamped movement system, and some intriguing new game modes introduced by Epic Games.
In the previous season, Fortnite enthusiasts saw some exciting collaborations. The battle pass welcomed Godzilla, allowing players to transform into the fearsome kaiju during battles. Epic Games also reintroduced DC cosmetics with fresh LEGO styles, which hadn’t been seen in the Item Shop for quite some time. One of the more divisive crossovers involved Skibidi Toilet, sparking varied reactions across the gaming community.
Recently, on Twitter, ShiinaBR, a trusted leaker, shared that the “robber pickle” skin might feature in the Chapter 6 Season 2 battle pass, slated for release on February 21. This quirky character sports a balaclava, a gold chain, and an emote named “Dill With It,” which throws on a pair of sunglasses. Initially, it seems like a delightful twist on the beloved Peely, a staple character in Fortnite’s lineup.
Peely’s influence in Fortnite is extensive, even reaching into the courtroom during Fortnite’s clash with Apple. Currently, the game boasts 14 different Peely outfits. While the introduction of the “robber pickle” has met with mixed opinions, many players are thrilled. Some voice their fatigue over the continuous rollout of Peely variations, yet others appreciate the inventive approach to a fan favorite. A good number are eager to see this skin in the next battle pass, with some admitting they would have purchased it independently.
Recently, Peely-themed Kicks were released, though not without a hint of controversy. A segment of the community feels these are overpriced, particularly given that standard Kicks cost around 600 V-Bucks, with Nike and Adidas versions soaring to 1,000 V-Bucks. While it’s uncertain how Epic Games will react to this pricing feedback, players remain hopeful for a future price adjustment.
