Epic Games and its unbelievable spree of collaborations haven’t stopped ever since Chapter 2 began. Thus far, gamers have seen the entire DC Comics and Marvel universe making their way into the game. The unique hunter system of Season 5 and internal storylines saw many amazing characters being added to Fortnite.
Chapter 3 of the game saw the addition of Marvel’s biggest superhero, Spiderman. This was the only character that wasn’t added to the game during the Marvel saga.
Following the successful launch of one of Marvel’s biggest superheroes, new leaks are pointing at another Star Wars character, who could be added to the game. Chapter 2 saw the debut of tiny Yoda and The Mandalorian. Now, new reports suggest Boba Fett is going to make his appearance soon.

Twitter reacts to a possible Boba Fett’s skin leak of Fortnite Chapter 3
However, there is one key issue with this possible skin concept, as it looks eerily similar to The Mandalorian. The community is dived on this issue as some fans don’t see it the same way. These two elite fighters enjoy a separate fanbase of their own and do share some similarities. This fan is calling the skin a straight rip-off of Mandalorian as the attire mimics a lot of things.
How is this not just mando?

Other members of the community feel this skin could have been an alternate idea for mando? Epic Games hasn’t confirmed this leak nor denied it, so believe in them with a grain of salt.
That could have been a style for the mandolorian bc they look similar

Other fans stated that every single Mandalorian hunter looks the same, so the community wasting time on a non-issue.
Nope if you knew better and knew more about the starwars lore you wouldn't be saying this. All mandalorians look similar so keep crying. you know you are lucky to be alive rn. I'll let you off this once!

It definitely could have been a great alternate option for the studio, but too bad Epic Games never entertained that idea.
Mando recolour. They should've done some starwars skin based on the new show

Indeed Mandalorian was an unbelievable experience, something that has left fans wanting for more. But to assume that everything is a cheap copy is taking things a bit too far.
i have never seen a star wars movie but i loved him in the mando show, he looks sick too but i’m not gonna pick him up

Christmas is also the time for Star Wars and, historically, the creators have released each movie around this time. So it is no surprise that Epic Games is also planning to roll out a Star Wars collaboration at this timeframe.
