Fortnite Season 5 Has A Secret Mystery Skin

Fortnite's Season 5 began with a bang earlier today when it brought a semi-new map, Baby Yoda, and the Mandalorian to the battle royale. Players were quick to dissect all the changes that came with the new season--including a mysterious secret skin.

There is an entire set of cosmetics listed under a "Mystery Rewards" tab in Fortnite's battle pass menu this season. They include a skin, back bling, harvesting tool, built-in emote, and more. There are no clues as to what the skin is, although players believe it'll be the Agent Jonesy character we saw in the Galactus and The Device event. Other players hope it'll be a different skin that goes along with Season 5's hunter theme. (And it's possible, although unlikely, that this relates to the leaked Fortnite Kratos skin.)

Previous seasons had additional skins like this as well, but they weren't hidden. Season 3 featured Aquaman with different unlockable styles and last season had Wolverine as an additional reward. Both were revealed at the beginning of the season. Players could earn them by completing character-specific challenges. Season 5's mystery rewards also have challenges but they haven't been revealed yet.

We haven't seen secret rewards like this since the Chapter 2 reset, and players are welcoming the change. Season 5 brought a number of other big changes to the battle royale as well. There is now a Warzone-like bounty system that lets you hunt other players, a more discreet way to move throughout the map, and several new named locations.
