Skull Trooper skin is finally back in Fortnite and you can now customize it Image Credit: EA SportsThe anticipated \u2018Skull Trooper\u2019 skins is back in Fortnite Battle Royale, just in time for Halloween, but they are not the same as their namesakes from last year. After Halloween 2017 passed, the Skull and Ghoul Trooper skins were never made available in Fortnite again, making them extremely rare and desirable. Some players would even buy other accounts with the skins purchased, just so they could have them, which isn\u2019t something developer Epic Games supported. It was thought that in an effort to curb these account sales, Epic would simply bring back the Skull Trooper and Ghoul Trooper, instantly lowering their rarity and desirability. Leaked skins and cosmetics found in the Fortnite V6.02 files continue the Halloween theme – First footage of new Quad Launcher in Fortnite Battle Royale – But, they never did, until we reach October 2018 and Epic begins adding Halloween decorations to the map and fans were convinced that the two skins would be made available to purchase soon. And their wishes have been answered. The \u2018Skull Squad\u2019 skins are now available, but you can now select different colors to use on them, from the standard white, to green, to purple. Customizable colors \u2013 Credit: TwoEpicBuddies Update: The purple variant of the Skull Trooper skin is only available to players who already owned Skull Trooper, as a reward of sorts, and to keep the exclusivity of the Skull Trooper skin somewhat intact. This image, courtesy of @HappyPower, shows the three variants, with the purple glow style only available to OG Skull Trooper owners. Additionally, there is also two new cosmetic items that go with the set, the \u2018Skull Sickle\u2019 pickaxe, and the \u2018Crypt Cruiser\u2019 glider.
