Fortnite players blame LEGO mode for “ruining” the Item Shop
Epic Games / LEGOEpic Games put Jack Skellington back in the Fortnite store, but players were unhappy that he didn’t come with his bundle, and blamed LEGO Fortnite
Skins have become a massive part of the Fortnite economy, and Epic Games makes sure to constantly update the shop with exciting new releases. Players have been especially hyped about the new Fortnite Giant Chicken skin, even if it can be hit through walls.
Jack Skellington was a skin that was originally released in Chapter 4 Season 4 with the Pumpkin King bundle that came with the skin.
Epic Games has now added him back into the store, but players were confused and upset when they saw that he didn’t have his bundle.
Disney / GameloftFortnite players think LEGO mode is the reason for “joke” Jack Skellington skin
One Fortnite fan complained on social media about the absence of the Jack Skellington bundle and thought that it was because his emote didn’t work in the LEGO mode.
“I hope this Minecraft rip-off gimmick dies out. It ruined shops. Also, Heart Breaker is back but they put him between the music tracks. These shops are not only terrible but also broken.”
Other players agreed that the Item Shop was suffering because of the LEGO Fortnite mode.
“Lego Fortnite needs a separate shop at this point,” one fan pleaded. Other players agreed and complained that some players just wanted to play the original Battle Royale mode and not have LEGO integration affect the skins they wanted.
“Legit they should have a dedicated ‘Lego Fortnite specials’ section, all this pandering towards that mode is making people who play BR hate it lmao.”
However, this isn’t the first time players have complained about the absence of skins or bundles in the item shop, with some players still waiting for skins like Travis Scott or Kratos.
