As Fortnite continues its apparent mission to feature all other video games within itself in some capacity (until presumably it then puts itself in itself, including all other video games within), developer Epic Games has revealed Solid Snake isn’t the only Metal Gear characer joining the battle royale line-up – with Raiden also set to appear as a new premium skin.
Fortnite, which is currently a month into Chapter 5 Season 1, released its first major update of the year – officially known as 28.10, number fans – earlier today. It includes new Bonus Reward styles for it Battle Pass skins, and, more notably, unlocks the ability to earn the previously announced Solid Snake Battle Pass skin and themed cosmetics by completing in-game quests.
As is often the case, a range of new store-bound premium cosmetics were also squirrelled away in today’s update, and all ten were swiftly unearthed and shared by dataminers – including one depicting Solid Snake’s Metal Gear pal Raiden. And the latter has now been given an official welcome to Fortnite in Epic’s Solid Snake promotional trailer, which features Raiden sporadically de-camouflaging throughout.
