Fortnite's Surprise Paradigm Skin Return: Players Get to Keep It!
A surprising event unfolded in the world of Fortnite on August 6th. The highly sought-after Paradigm skin, a Chapter 1 Season X exclusive unavailable for five years, unexpectedly reappeared in the in-game item shop.
Initially, Epic Games attributed the skin's return to a technical glitch and announced plans to remove it from players' inventories and provide refunds. However, a swift and significant change of heart followed intense player reaction.
Within two hours, Fortnite reversed course, tweeting that players who purchased the Paradigm skin during its accidental return could keep it. The developers acknowledged the error, stating, "Bought Paradigm tonight? You can keep her. Her accidental return to the Shop is on us... so if you purchased The Paradigm during this evening's rotation, you can keep this Outfit and we'll refund your V-Bucks soon-ish."
To preserve the original exclusivity for those who acquired the skin years ago, Fortnite promised a unique, new variant as a thank-you gift.
Stay tuned for further updates!
