Leaked New Skins
According to recent leaks from HYPEX and Shiina, Chapter 4 Season 2 of Fortnite is expected to feature a long-awaited Attack on Titan crossover with Eren Yeager as the secret skin in the Battle Pass.
In addition to Eren, the leakers also revealed a look at other characters that are set to appear on the Battle Pass, although they were not named. One of these characters is a lizard skin that was previously seen on a Spray from Season 1’s Cipher Quests.
Alongside Eren and the other characters, there may also be five brand new skins included in the Battle Pass. While it is unclear if these skins will be in the item shop or part of the Battle Pass, some of the rumored new skins include a new Drift Skin and a new Lizard Skin.

According to FireMonkey, there will be at least six new locations, either major named Places of Interest or smaller Landmarks, codenamed Cyber Dragon, Dojo, Hot Springs, Loot Island, Neon City, and Zen Garden. If all six are full POIs, it would mean a significant change to the map for the new season.
