Kai Cenat Appears to Leak IShowSpeed's Fortnite Collaboration
According to an accidental on - stream leak by Kai Cenat, IShowSpeed might finally be making his way into Fortnite. Over time, numerous celebrities have joined the list of skins available in Fortnite. It all began with the Marshmello skin, which was the first in the Icon Series way back in Chapter 1, and the series has been expanding ever since. The Icon Series encompasses a diverse range of individuals, from famous artists like Lady Gaga and Metallica to globally - recognized streamers such as SypherPK and Ninja.
The next Icon Series collaboration set to be added to Fortnite will arrive with the release of patch v37.20. Fortnite made a big announcement on the Sphere in Las Vegas on August 19, revealing that the Kai Cenat skin would be coming to the game. On Friday, September 12, at 8 PM ET when the Item Shop rotates, players will be able to buy the Kai Cenat skin along with the rest of his cosmetic set.
Kai Cenat Displays a Discord Chat Named "IShowSpeed x Fortnite Collab"
It seems that Kai Cenat may not be the only streamer joining Fortnite in the near future. On September 9, while streaming, Kai Cenat opened Discord and went through some of his direct messages. During this process, he seemingly didn't notice that at the very top of his chats, there was a group chat titled "IShowSpeed x Fortnite Collab." This has led fans to believe that Fortnite and IShowSpeed might be collaborating to create a cosmetic set for the latter.
Of course, this could just be a randomly - named group chat. When the Kai Cenat skin was announced, a lot of fans commented about how much they also wanted an IShowSpeed skin. It's possible that this was set up by Cenat's friends to play a joke on him. However, there's also a good chance that it's true. Kai Cenat could be helping the developers come up with a cosmetic set for Speed. Given that Fortnite often collaborates with popular figures, and considering that IShowSpeed is extremely well - known and has played Fortnite on stream before (including with Kai Cenat), this potential collaboration makes sense. Plus, Kai Cenat and IShowSpeed are close friends and have a large overlapping fan base.
IShowSpeed is one of the most famous streamers globally, and surely a large number of Fortnite players enjoy his content, as he has streamed the game previously, even playing with Kai Cenat. If the rumors turn out to be true, it's possible that the two skins could be released simultaneously, with IShowSpeed's skin being a surprise for fans. Players who are eager to learn more about this should keep an eye out for upcoming leaks related to v37.20 on September 10 and v37.30 on September 16.
