Is it an ambitious crossover between the world's two most popular battle royale games? Not quite. What you're actually looking at is the latest Fortnite skin, the Tender Defender, which has been created at the request of an eight year old (and most of the Fortnite subreddit). Now, after several months of requests from Fortnite players, the skin is finally available in the item shop.
The story began back in September, when the father of a young Fortnite fan posted his son's Chicken Trooper idea on Reddit in the hope that Epic would add it to the game. According to the post, Connor had been asking his father to submit his chicken trooper suggestion for several months. And, rather quickly, he was joined by the rest of the FortNiteBR subreddit. Players loved the idea so much they created concept art of the skin - complete with a glider, pick-axe and back bling designs.
Taken aback by the reaction, Connor's Dad printed out the artwork to surprise his son when he got back from school. He recorded Connor's reactions to the drawings in a YouTube video, and once again asked Epic to consider introducing the design to Fortnite.
