Fortnite Changes Social Media Icon and Photo, Teases Something for “Drift” & “Fox Clan” (Update)

Fortnite Street Fighter Crossover

Epic Games is about to launch something big for Fortnite, as the official Fortnite Twitter account that has over 12 million followers has today changed its profile icon and banner picture, and even tweeted an obscure message hinting at a possible event of some sort.

Here’s a look at the changes made for Twitter so far:

Reliable Fortnite dataminer HYPEX has said that the “Drift” crew skin is teased on the left:

It looks like the announcements for the day aren’t done, so we’ll continually be updating the post as more developments unfold. Chances are, this leads to something big which we’re hoping applies to not only Fortnite Battle Royale but for Fortnite’s Save the World mode too.

Chances are, the Fortnite Instagram and Facebook pages will be updated within the day, and we’ll keep an eye out for those too.

Update: Epic has reverted the changes made. Not sure if this is part of their marketing gimmick or that’s it for the tease. Could it be just for the Drift skin? If so, that’s a whole lotta hype for something minimal. Here’s to hoping there’s more to it.
