Is a new Lara Croft Fortnite skin coming? Situation explained
With Fortnite constantly adding new skins, rumours on social media claim that Tomb Raider's Lara Croft is set to receive a brand new skin soon.
Lara Croft is one of gaming's most famous characters, so it's hardly surprising to see her linked with Fortnite.
The hugely popular shooter is famed for its crossovers, and with rumours of a brand new Lara Croft skin in the works, fans are getting excited.
So, is there any truth to these rumours? We're here to tell you everything you need to know.
Is a new Lara Croft Fortnite skin coming?
It hasn't been confirmed by Epic Games, but according to leaks, there is a new Lara Croft skin coming to Fortnite.
Posted to Twitter by reputable leaker ShiinaBR, there is an upcoming Lara Croft collab on the way, due to hit the Item Shop on 14th March.
This will introduce a bundle containing a Lara Croft skin as well as a new pickaxe, back bling, wrap and emote, for the price of 2,200 V-Bucks.
The skin will reportedly be based on her outfit in 2003's Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness, and will be purchasable individually for 1,500 V-Bucks.
In addition to the Lara Croft skin, you'll be able to purchase her Jeep Wrangler Rubicon as a Rocket Racing skin for 2,200 V-Bucks.

When was Lara Croft last in Fortnite?
This new Lara Croft skin will not be the first time the Tomb Raider protagonist has found herself in Fortnite.
Back in 2021's Chapter 2 Season 6 Battle Pass, a different Lara Croft skin was added to the game.
Unfortunately, if you missed that skin the first time around, it hasn't been available to obtain since then.
While battle pass skins can now show up in the Item Shop at a later date, this only applies to skins introduced from Chapter 5 Season 4 onwards, meaning this Lara Croft skin will likely remain unobtainable.
So, if you're a Tomb Raider fan desperate to get your hands on a Lara Croft skin, fingers crossed that these leaks turn out to be true.
