If the leak is correct, this wouldn't be the first time Fortnite has released football player skins. Epic's battle royale recently added a skin for Neymar Jr. in Season 6 of Chapter 2, which was a big hit. Although Kane and Reus are not as well known as Neymar, Kane is the face of the England national team and Reus is one of Germany's most talented players of the past 15 years..
The skins will be available as “separate outfits, or together, in the Kane & Reus pack,” according to HYPEX. Epic is expected to announce the crossover soon, or at least before the start of Euro 2020. The publisher has been trying to connect traditional sports for a month, since the introduction of NBA skins on Fortnite on May 21, before the playoffs of the NBA.
