Fortnite Reverses Controversial Skin Decision
The iconic Master Chief, star of the Halo franchise and a popular Fortnite skin, recently returned to the item shop after a two-year hiatus, much to the delight of fans. However, a controversy quickly arose concerning the Matte Black style originally offered exclusively to Xbox Series S|X players.
Initially advertised as perpetually available, the sudden announcement of its removal sparked considerable backlash. Some players even considered legal action, threatening a class-action lawsuit. However, Epic Games swiftly reversed its decision within 24 hours.
The Matte Black style will now remain accessible to all Master Chief skin owners, provided they play a single game on an Xbox Series S|X console. This reversal is widely seen as the most sensible course of action, particularly given the festive holiday season.
