Fortnitemares Trailer Reveals Five Skins, but One Stands Out

Fortnitemares 2024 has just unveiled its eagerly awaited trailer, featuring five new skins, with one charming mashup taking center stage.

Since 2017, Fortnitemares has been a fan-favorite Halloween event for Fortnite, celebrated for its spine-chilling skins, spooky map alterations, and unique gameplay styles. Each year, players embark on quests and face challenges to earn exclusive Halloween-themed items.

This time around, there are rumors of a collaboration with the horror franchise Saw, sparking excitement among horror enthusiasts. The event is set to commence on October 11, with players preparing for an even spookier experience.

Just four days ahead of Fortnitemares, Epic Games released a brief 23-second teaser that featured iconic horror characters, yet the community can’t stop buzzing about Harbinger Lexa’s enchanting new witch-inspired appearance.

The trailer showcases the characters attempting to carve pumpkins using an array of techniques, from stabbing and clawing to sawing them into various shapes—or even bits.

The newly revealed skins include Shadow Monks, Leatherface from the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Harbinger Lexa, Billy the Puppet from Saw, and Mephisto from Marvel.

While Mephisto, the infamous villain associated with Marvel’s Agatha All Along, has captured attention, Harbinger Lexa has surprisingly emerged as the star of the showcase.

First introduced as a character in Chapter 2, Season 5, Lexa is making a return in a stunning new witch-themed outfit. Players who fell in love with her original anime-inspired design are excited to see her finally get the spotlight she truly deserves.

Fans have taken to social media to express their enthusiasm about her comeback, filling the post with joy. One player exclaimed, “SHE FINALLY MADE IT IN A TRAILER!” while another enthusiastically wrote, “SHES SO CUTEEE!”

Harbinger Lexa’s enchanting look has left players wishing for more appearances. Some have even suggested adding “a Witch’s broom in-game as a glider.” To that, I propose, why not introduce an actual broomstick in the game? After all, we’ve already glided through the skies with wings and jetpacks, so airborne magic is certainly not a novel concept.

As the countdown to Fortnitemares 2024 begins, anticipation is building. With more skins, cosmetics, and thrilling gameplay modes on the horizon, fans are eager to discover what other surprises—both spooky and delightful—Epic Games has planned for this Halloween season.
