A well-known Fortnite leaker has stirred the community with a fresh tidbit: a “robber pickle” skin might sneak its way into the Chapter 6 Season 2 battle pass. As Fortnite wraps up its latest season, which introduced sweeping changes, the excitement continues to build. From launching an entirely new map to overhauling how players move and shaking things up with novel game modes, Epic Games has kept fans on their toes.
Chapter 6 Season 1 also thrilled many with its variety of collaborations. One notable addition was the inclusion of Godzilla in the battle pass, allowing players to transform into the iconic monster mid-game. Epic Games also revisited some fan-favorite DC cosmetics, integrating new LEGO styles, and sparked heated debates with a Skibidi Toilet crossover that left the community talking.
In a buzzworthy reveal on Twitter, leaker ShiinaBR suggested that the upcoming battle pass, due to drop on February 21, might introduce a “robber pickle” skin. This intriguing design is rumored to sport a balaclava, a flashy gold chain, and even have an emote titled “Dill With It,” featuring a slick pair of sunglasses for the skin. On first glance, this pickle-themed character seems like a playful new take on Peely, Fortnite’s beloved banana mascot.
Peely has been a staple in the Fortnite universe, even making a cameo in the headline-grabbing legal face-off between Fortnite and Apple. With 14 Peely skins already available, reactions to the “robber pickle” have been a mixed bag. Some players feel overwhelmed by the frequent Peely updates, while others are excited to see a new twist on an old favorite. For many, the creative spin is a welcome return, and some have already expressed their eagerness to nab the skin, regardless of its place in the battle pass.
Epic Games also recently launched Peely-centric sneakers in Fortnite, which have sparked some discontent among the player base due to their steep prices. Original Peely sneakers are priced at 600 V-Bucks, with branded collaborations reaching up to 1,000 V-Bucks. While it’s uncertain how Epic will address this feedback, many fans remain hopeful for a price drop in response to the community’s concerns.
