Summary
Fortnitefans have come together to express their enthusiasm for the new “Leaving Today” tag that now appears on cosmetics in the Item Shop. WithFortnite’s Chapter 6 Season 2 coming to a close, many gamers are eager to find out any information they can about the upcoming season.
At Star Wars Celebration Japan, Epic Games announced thatFortnite’s next seasonwill feature a major collaboration withStar Wars. The new season, titled Galactic Battle,will come with a fullStar Warsbattle pass, which has excited many fans. While there’s no way of knowing exactly which characters will appear in the pass, Epic Games has shown off skins of Emperor Palpatine, Mace Windu, and the meme-inspired Darth Jar Jar. It was also confirmed that the new season will feature original designs, such as a mash-up of a Wookie and the iconic mascot Cuddle Team Leader. Fans can also expect to see new vehicles arrive in the game, like X-Wings and Tie Fighters that will allow fans to take to the skies.
In a recent post on Reddit, SPARTAN-258 expressed their appreciation for the new “Leaving Today” tag that appears on cosmetics inFortnite’s Item Shop. Epic Games recently started adding dates attached to items within the shop, which allows players to know exactly how long cosmetics will stick around. The new “Leaving Today” tag makes that even more visible, as it appears on the preview image of the item itself with bold lettering and a pink background. This gives players one final warning that a cosmetic they may have had their eye on could be going away for a while, as one can never know when a cosmetic will come back to the shop.
Fortnite Fans Love the ‘Leaving Today’ Tag
Occasionally, skins leave the Item shop and aren’t seen again for years. In some cases, like withthe collaboration betweenArcaneandFortnite, the cosmetics may be gone indefinitely. While the new “Leaving Today” tag can’t help with items that don’t come back, it does bring attention to them before they disappear for an unknown amount of time.
Epic Games recently added anotherhighly requested feature toFortnite, which allows players to use their instruments as back blings and pickaxes. Similarly, many instruments that were only used as back blings and pickaxes are now fully functional in Fortnite Festival. With new features being added all the time and the Galactic Battle season arriving soon, many people are feeling optimistic about the future ofFortnite.
