Original story below.
The PlayStation Store, no stranger to Fortnite leaks, has leaked two upcoming Star Wars skins – Kylo Ren and Zorii Bliss – and they might be coming to the item shop as early as December 20.
The conclusion of the nine-film Skywalker Saga has arrived with The Rise of Skywalker and it looks like Fortnite is celebrating with one more set of skins.
We already knew about a Kylo Ren skin as that has leaked already, but the Zorii Bliss one is a bit more surprising. Bliss is one of the new characters who was introduced in The Rise of Skywalkers and ends up playing a key role in the outcome.
Kylo Ren, of course, has been the antagonist of the entire sequel trilogy and now he’s being immortalized into Fortnite. Each cosmetic could be available a lot sooner rather than later, especially given the PlayStation Store has already leaked them.

December 20 would definitely be the best time to release this skin since it’d capitalize on the release of the new movie.
This would be the first time a skin introduces a brand-new character from the film so it makes sense for it to launch on the official release day of the film.
Outside of these two skins, there’s nothing on the horizon in terms of some additional Star Wars skin. We were already spoiled as it is so we can’t be too greedy and ask for more.
Some fans thought there would be a chance of getting our hands on a Luke Skywalker game since Mark Hamill was promoting Fortnite in an episode of Xbox Sessions with Ninja, but that ended up being too good to be true.
All in all, we received six separate Star Wars skins, including these two leaked ones, so there’s not a whole lot to be upset with.
