The popularity of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 has arguably been unanimous upon the update’s release towards the end of 2023, especially after introducing several hit modes, including Rocket Racing and LEGO Fortnite. However, that hasn’t stopped players from complaining about some of the game’s more disappointing features, such as the overtly frustrating Item Shop, which tends to recycle less-than-ideal cosmetics each time it gets updated.
Of course, with Epic Games updating the Fortnite item shop rotation daily, the selections players can choose from are almost always different each time. Recently, however, the game’s community has complained that the items offered have been lackluster, with some going on Reddit to demand changes from the developers.
One disgruntled user even created a sarcastic post saying: “I’m so happy it’s back for the 20th time this season! [I] thought I’d missed it!” after which they attached an image of the Neon Glow bundle that’s seemingly been regurgitated after every update to the in-game store. A majority of the comments below the thread shared similar opinions, as one user commented: “[Epic Games have] been real good lately about giving us nothing decent in the item shop.”
Conversely, other players merely listed a few suggestions of the cosmetics they’d like to see added instead, most of whom requested “Rick and Morty skins” and Resident Evil-themed outfits. Unfortunately, as always, these suggestions will likely end up being completely ignored since decisions on the item shop rotation fall on Epic Games in the end. Nevertheless, these skin requests could eventually make their way into the store, though you may have to wait a while until they do.
