Fortnite Brings Back Fan-Favorite LTM
Epic Games reintroduces a fan-favorite limited-time game mode to Fortnite amid the game's ongoing Chapter 6 Season 2 cycle.
As recently revealed by Shiina on Twitter, the Fortnite Lara Croft skin might be returning in Season 2, Chapter 6, but with a twist—it won't be the OG skin players first received. Instead, it will be an entirely new version called Lara Croft (2000s), with multiple variants expected, though the exact details remain unknown. The post also mentions that a car skin will be included in the set. However, it’s important to note that this is a leak and hasn’t been confirmed by Epic Games yet.
Brand New Lara Croft Skin Possibly Coming in Chapter 6 Season 2
Lara Croft made her Fortnite debut in 2021, quickly becoming a popular choice among players. However, for those who joined after the Battle Pass featuring her skin, it became unavailable, leaving many gamers unable to unlock it. Since the skin was dropped in Chapter 2 Season 5, many players have likely been hoping for another chance to obtain the sought-after cosmetic.
The latest season has already brought in a wave of fresh skins, including a variety of new Fortnite Super Styles, giving players unique customization options. Lawless also added several new battle skins to its roster, such as Mortal Kombat’s Sub-Zero and Cassidy Quinn. For many fans, the potential inclusion of Lara Croft in this season's Battle Pass would be exciting news.
Fortnite is already a record-breaking game, famous for its rotating roster of collaborative outfits from iconic franchises like Marvel and Star Wars. For now, fans will have to wait and see if the Tomb Raider lead makes her anticipated return in the legendary franchise's latest season, Lawless.
