Fortnite Store Update Adds New Support Squadron Gear

3.9
Another day, another Fortnite store update. And this time the Llama gods have blessed us with not only two brand-new outfits, but a new harvesting tool and a new glider.

That's right, Epic Games has released a new gear set dubbed "Support Squadron," perfect for the one player in every squad who likes to stock up on medkits and bandages.

As you would expect, the demand for a second-run of Power Chord has only gotten louder, with an increase in players crying out for Pumpernickel as well. But at least nobody is asking for Skulltrooper anymore.

Personally, I like the new skins, but not enough to fork over 1,500 credits for either one. However, unlike many new Fortnite skins, these feel light-hearted and fit the more simple themes of yesteryear Fortnite, even if they are a bit done-up. The new glider is especially cool, and given the game's lack of serviceable gliders, it may be worth splashing 1,200 V-Bucks on. Maybe. Probably not. But that won't stop me or you from getting it. We've been making bad life decisions since Season 2 and we aren't stopping now.

Fortnite is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile devices. For more news, media, and information on the game, be sure to check out our previous and extensive coverage of the title by clicking here.

Really half assed looking skins to be honest, but all these skin and account collectors will eat this up as always for sure.

Maze I like the idea behind this skin, I really do, it looks pretty good. Not something I'm willing to spend money on though.


They need to start bringing skins like they used to do really not into the skins that have come out the last couple of months


I don't remember people being really hyped since the raven was announced. That was the last skin everyone wanted. Sure is a shame


People wasn't really hyped for the raven tbh. I never heard about the skin until I seen it in the shop


When it first was leaked it was for sure the most hyped up skin on reddit and Twitter. When it was released, I remember seeing the whole lobby wearing the skin. I don't remember people being hyped for a skin since then. Maybe you didn't hear about it, but it was for sure hyped up ever since it was first leaked.

I liked the glider they released for these but the skins themselves aren't great.
