Okay, so I saw this trending topic about new Fortnite characters and I was like, “I gotta check this out!” So, I fired up my trusty old gaming rig and got ready to dive in.

First things first, I launched Fortnite. Pretty obvious, right? The game loaded up, showing the usual splash screen and all that jazz. I waited for it to connect to the servers – sometimes it takes a bit, you know how it is.
Once I was in the main menu, I navigated to the Item Shop. That’s usually where all the new shiny stuff pops up. I scrolled through the featured items, my eyes peeled for anything that looked unfamiliar. And there they were! A couple of brand-new character skins, looking all cool and ready for action.
Checking Out the New Looks
I clicked on each of the new characters to get a closer look. One was this futuristic-looking robot with glowing bits, and the other was a kind of mystical warrior with some awesome-looking armor. I spent a good few minutes just rotating the 3D models, admiring the details. The designers really put some work into these!
Here’s a quick rundown of what I noticed:
- Robot Character: Sleek design, metallic finish, lots of glowing blue energy accents. It had this cool visor that opened and closed.
- Warrior Character: Intricate armor with what looked like ancient symbols, a flowing cape, and a really detailed weapon.
Taking Them for a Spin
Of course, just looking at them wasn’t enough. I had to see these new characters in action! I had some V-Bucks saved up, so I went ahead and purchased both of them. No regrets there!

I jumped into a quick solo match to test them out. The robot character felt really smooth to control, and its built-in emote was pretty hilarious – a little robotic dance. The warrior character felt a bit more weighty, and its emote was this dramatic pose with the weapon.
I played a few rounds with each, getting a feel for how they looked running around the map, building, and, well, you know… shooting at other players. It’s always fun to see how the new skins look in different environments and lighting.
All in all, I’m pretty stoked about these new additions. They add some fresh variety to the game, and it’s always exciting to have new characters to play with. If you’re a Fortnite fan, I definitely recommend checking them out!
