News
By Leon Hurley published 6 November 2018

A lot of folk aren't keen on this season's robot challenge skin, although that back bling's getting everyone hyped

The Fortnite Hunting Party Challenges are always an interesting part of the game - weeks of trying to complete tasks for... a skin you don't know about yet. The reward is usually secret, meaning all that effort is a bit of gamble. 

  • Fortnite Battle Pass Challenges
  • Fortnite tips 
  • Fortnite Llamaslocation 

However as Fortnite Season 6 approaches week 7 it looks like the Hunting Party skin has been unearthed and emotions are all over the place. 

This is reportedly the skin, called A.I.M. :

We waited 7 weeks for this absolute mad lad... /s via/@HYPEX pic.twitter.com/hALCAvAqCzNovember 6, 2018

The reactions have been mixed but it's safe to say there's a leaning towards the negative. 

So mad I grinded these awful challenges for this skin 😂😂November 6, 2018

Wtf is thatNovember 6, 2018

So i did my challenge for this...you know what. pic.twitter.com/Jw0hr0AlWxNovember 6, 2018

You get the idea. Although a lot of people seem to feel the challenge skins are always let down, which might come from seven weeks of grinding for a mystery reward. That's rarely going to end well. 

Some confusion seems to stem from what a big robot has to to do with the more Halloween themed Hunting Party story so far. However, this could link to Fortnite Season 7, especially after the last Fortnite live event which had a slightly techy feel to the otherworldly dimension it teased . 

Not everyone's down on the skin though. Some people dig it.

Omfg....this skiiiin is dooooope!!!November 6, 2018

I love this skin is so coolNovember 6, 2018

It's the best week 7 skin imoNovember 6, 2018

Whatever people feel about it, there's some consensus on one thing: everyone has seen at least one other robot, with Fallout 3's Liberty Prime getting a lot of mentions in particular.

And something that does seem to be going down well is the idea that the Back Bling might function as a kill counter. Everyone likes that idea. 

That back bling would be dope if I displayed how many kills you haveNovember 6, 2018

We'll find out for sure next week when Fortnite season 7 starts and people can actually unlock the skin for real. 

In other news it looks like controller support might be coming to Fortnite on mobile, which would be a literal game changer.
