Epic Games Teases Potential New Fortnite Skins – And One AI-Inspired Design Has Fans Laughing

Epic Games is once again seeking feedback from players through its regular Fortnite cosmetic surveys, and one skin in particular is drawing attention – not for its style, but for its hilarious AI art-inspired design.

Fortnite might be free-to-play, but players have no shortage of ways to spend their V-Bucks. The in-game Item Shop refreshes daily, showcasing a massive variety of skins, emotes, and other cosmetics. Back in Chapter 1, the shop featured just six to eight items a day. Now, it spans over 10 pages, offering thousands of items – and that number grows every year.

To keep players engaged and ensure upcoming designs resonate with the community, Epic regularly conducts surveys showcasing potential new cosmetics. Many of these designs eventually make their way into the game, either through the Item Shop or Battle Pass. The surveys have become a reliable preview of what might come next, and fans are always eager to analyze them.

The latest batch of survey skins was recently shared by Twitter user @j2shuaa, sparking conversations across the community. One skin in particular stood out – a parody of artificial intelligence-generated artwork. While some details are subtle nods to common AI design flaws, one feature makes the theme impossible to miss: the hands. In true AI fashion, the character bizarrely has three hands – one normal hand in its pocket, and two twisted, mutated hands with extra fingers growing in all the wrong places. The result is one of the most bizarre and unsettling Fortnite skins fans have seen yet.

How Many Skins Were Shown in the 2025 Survey?

A total of 34 new skin concepts were included.

Given its creepy aesthetic, this AI-inspired skin could be a fitting addition for Fortnitemares – Fortnite’s annual Halloween event – later this year. Whether it ever actually makes it into the game, however, will depend on how players reacted to it in the survey and whether Epic feels it fits into an upcoming theme or event.

According to Fortnite.gg, there are nearly 350 survey skins that haven’t been released yet. Many, though, have eventually made their debut – often as part of seasonal Battle Passes, limited-time Crew Packs, or standalone Item Shop drops. Some are tied to the game’s evolving storyline, while others exist purely for fun or to fit a seasonal vibe.

For now, fans curious about the AI parody skin will have to wait and see if it makes its way into Fortnite – creepy hands and all.
