Fortnite Leaks New Guardians of the Galaxy Skins

Fortnite leaks have revealed three Guardians of the Galaxy skins coming to the game, which depict fan-favorite characters Drax, Groot, and Mantis. A release date for the new Fortnite skins is still not officially confirmed, but they will likely be added in the near future.

The crossover was partially revealed in a recent LEGO Fortnite update when fans spotted LEGO versions of Drax and Groot in the patch's key art. The update was a pretty major one, as it added three vehicle builds for LEGO fans to unlock and customize. It also added new tools, additional LEGO versions of Fortnite skins, and more. As for the Guardians skins, the only information that Marvel fans initially received was the brief appearance of the two characters, but now there's a lot more to go on.

Fortnite leaker Hypex tweeted an image that showed the regular Fortnite versions of the three Guardians skins, along with their back blings and harvesting tools. The Drax and Mantis skins depict the characters in their usual outfits and the Young Adult Groot skin depicts him in his bulky, athletic stage. Mantis' skin comes with some slight reactivity thanks to her antennas that periodically flicker on and off with light. As for additional Guardians of the Galaxy cosmetics, the Drax skin comes with the Drax's Blades pickaxe and Drax's Blades back bling (same name but different items), the Groot skin comes with the Flora Colossus Fist pickaxe and Groot's Gamepad back bling, and the Mantis skin comes with the Insectoid Claws pickaxe and Lil Abilisk back bling. Additionally, the emotes Potted Groot Dance and Zargnut Invisibility will be added alongside the skins.

Leakers claim the items will all be part of a bundle that must be bought with regular money instead of V-Bucks. Fans might remember that Fortnite has previously added a Groot skin, which could be unlocked through a battle pass. While the return of Marvel characters to Fortnite probably comes as a pleasant surprise to most, there might be a reason for the
