Fortnite fans are up in arms over Epic’s decision to sell a new version of a previously Battle Pass-exclusive character via the in-game store.
Players argue this goes against Epic’s long-standing promise never to sell Battle Pass content outside of the pass and that, while the two skins differ, this character was one only available to season 5 Battle Pass owners.
The skin in question – Summer Drift – is a beachwear version of Drift, Fortnite’s poster boy for season 5.
