Fortnite's cosmetic items are highly sought after, with players eagerly awaiting the return of popular skins. Epic Games rotates its existing skins in and out of the in-game store, often resulting in lengthy wait times. While some skins, like Master Chief (after a two-year absence), eventually reappear, others remain elusive. This is particularly true for fans of Arcane, who are unlikely to see Jinx and Vi skins return.
The desire for the Arcane skins has intensified since the second season's release. However, Riot Games co-founder Marc Merrill recently dampened hopes during a stream. While acknowledging the decision rests with Riot, he indicated the collaboration was limited to the first season. Despite subsequent social media disappointment, Merrill promised to discuss the possibility internally, but offered no guarantees.
The chances of a return seem slim. While the potential revenue would benefit Riot, the risk of players migrating from League of Legends to Fortnite due to the skins is a significant concern, especially given League of Legends' current challenges.
Therefore, managing expectations is advisable. While future circumstances could change, currently, expecting a comeback for these skins is unrealistic.
