Popular streamer Dr Disrespect shared a video showing a Fortnite character modelled after his iconic style, complete with his signature red vest, sunglasses, and two trophies. A red Lamborghini was also shown as a potential glider skin.
Fans of Dr Disrespect were excited at the prospect of his likeness being available as a Fortnite skin.
However, there are reasons to be skeptical. The locker interface shown in the video is outdated, the skin banner says “Legendary” instead of “Icon”, and there has been no official confirmation from Epic Games about a Dr Disrespect skin.
Reliable Fortnite leakers and dataminers have found no evidence of a Dr Disrespect skin being actively developed in the game’s files.
Despite the questionable authenticity of the video, it has generated substantial excitement and interest among the Fortnite community.
Epic Games has not issued any statement on the leak video or addressed whether Dr Disrespect will receive his own Icon Series treatment in the future. Given his popularity, an official collaboration with Dr Disrespect could be a logical move for Epic Games.
