New Skin Icon Series Loserfruit Fortnite
Popular Aussie content creator Kathleen 'Loserfruit' Belsten is apparently getting her own Fortnite skin, but when will it actually be available?
Ever since Fortnite broke into the Battle Royale market in 2017, players have been separating themselves from the crowd with cosmetics. With a ton of content creators in mind - be it Twitch, YouTube, or trying to go pro - players are asking Epic to recreate them in skins so they can represent their favorite player on Fortnite.
Back in January, Mixer star Tyler 'Ninja' Blevins was the first to officially who received the skin through the Icon series, в while Loserfruit and TheGrefg are still waiting their turn.
Now it looks like it's time for Loserfruit cosmetics, according to a reliable Fortnite Insider Lucas7yoshi, revealing a new skin after updates v12.60.
“This is a lone file, there is nothing in the files with an ID. It's just an image in the current files," the tweeter wrote with the images attached. "Maybe it's a Loserfruit skin, I don't see anything in the id files for that to make sense."
so i wasn't aware of this until now

Lucas pointed out that the skin he found did not fall under the "Huecrash" filename that Epic assigned to streamer cosmetics. However, what he found bears a rather remarkable resemblance to popular content creator Aussie.
More recently, Epic changed their filenames in an effort to get rid of liquors - Travis Scott's recent event didn't use his name until it was officially announced, instead calling him Jerky.
Whether Epic uses this tactic or not is still unknown, but the skin is indeed very similar to Loserfruit - as many observers have already noted.
Fans will just have to wait and see if what the leader found turns out to be her gear or if Epic is hiding something else up its sleeve.
