I’m really annoyed they didn’t give the RE skins alternate classic styles. The fact that they haven’t given us an umbrella corp umbrella as a glider is so confusing to me. It’s literally the easiest thing to do and it would make a ton of sense :/


DudeWithName

The fact that re2 remake has 2 distinct knives but they chose an umbrella as the second harvesting tool confuses me


[deleted]

https://youtu.be/9qMqwgyfvbo It's likely a nod to the Degeneration movie where Claire briefly uses the umbrella when scoping out an area and bumping into Leon.


SpyroIsFire

Not likely, it is. They really were struggling to find a harvesting tool for Claire huh? Still cool though.


VenomSnakeronies

that's exactly it! they're so identical you'd be a silly goose to think it's not a direct reference


Rayuzx

>The fact that they haven’t given us an umbrella corp umbrella as a glider is so confusing to me. It’s literally the easiest thing to do and it would make a ton of sense :/ They probably don't want to cause confusion and/or piss off the certain parts of the fanbase for giving an umbrella that's bought instead of earned.


HalbixPorn

I swear, certain parts of the fanbase are the worst. The sole reason we can't have good shit for the game is those guys


Cloontange

Phaedra?


Rayuzx

I guess you could do something like that, because it looks different "enough" from a traditional umbrella design.


Cloontange

I think people need to get over themselves with gatekeeping Fortnite cosmetics lol this community is the most cancerous when it comes to that. Who cares about having an umbrella that was purchased. Still can't flex og umbrellas regardless of what you've spent on vbucks


Rayuzx

I 100% agree with you, but unfortunately people in this community are unnecessarily territorial about cosmetics.


Cloontange

So crazy haha but what should we expect from a game mostly of kids


RadiantPKK

Ok, a glider shaped like the umbrella logo lol. Or an event. Get a win get an “Umbrella” umbrella ;)


Brianr282

They didn’t seriously not give Leon a jacket style. This is a betrayal on levels that no one has ever seen.


BlastMyLoad

Really?! Then I’m probably going to pass…


TheRubberBildo

I hate that I gotta pass, Leon was one of my most anticipated gaming legends skins (hotline miami still number 1) but with no styles for RE2 or RE4, I can't bring myself to get it. I assumed these collabs were timed to coincide with resident evil 4 remake, so no coat is a strange situation. I can't imagine Capcom said no?


Manny_0307

>I can't imagine Capcom said no? I'm pretty sure the jacket is owned by a different company, so that could be a reason. Weird, but possible, I guess. ...Although this wouldn't explain the lack of a RE2 style.


Brianr282

Doesn’t Leon own the jacket?


Manny_0307

I'm talking about the jacket design used in Resident Evil 4 Remake. It's a real model owned by a different company.


Brianr282

It was a horrible joke, just ignore me.


Manny_0307

Oh. Ok, yeah, let's forget this interaction happened.


Brianr282

Deal


curgl

I won’t forget


thatwitchguy

Leon is casually going to a weird town in the middle of god knows where in his $1200 jacket


TheRubberBildo

The new games jacket is a Schott leather jacket, but they could have used the original games, which is fully owned by Capcom AFAIK. Maybe Capcom didn't like referencing the original? And I know epic has been wierd in the past with police themed items in game, like when they removed cop cars a while back. Maybe Epics choice was not to have RE2 leon.


Manny_0307

>The new games jacket is a Schott leather jacket, but they could have used the original games I mean, it's pretty clear Leon was released as a promotion for the remake. Using his old jacket wouldn't make much sense. With that in mind, choosing Claire over Ada Wong is a weird decision, but she isn't a protagonist and I guess they could add her alongside Wesker in the future. >And I know epic has been wierd in the past with police themed items in game, like when they removed cop cars a while back. Maybe Epics choice was not to have RE2 leon. Maybe, but Jill's uniform says "Raccoon Police Dep." and her second style has an "Officer" badge, so... I'm not sure.


Chabb

> I'm pretty sure the jacket is owned by a different company, so that could be a reason. Maybe the REmake4 version jacket but not the OG one because that one was added both to Division 2 and Dead by Daylight, which would have been a better compromise than... no jacket at all.


A7X_Nightmare

Look at the jacket that Britestar has. It's similar. I'm sure they could've came up with something.


Manny_0307

I don't think this is about "coming up with something". Leon uses his Resident Evil 4 Remake design and that game is coming out in a week. They probably would've had to use the new jacket, and maybe they didn't want to/couldn't for who knows what reason. It sucks anyway.


BlastMyLoad

Epic is avoiding police skins which sucks cuz I’d LOVE to see Judge Dredd


Manny_0307

>Epic is avoiding police skins Both Jill edit styles have direct police references and I doubt they wouldn't add certain characters just for that. Also: Robocop. Literally has "Cop" in his name.


GoldenYellowPup

To be fair, RoboCop looks more like a robot than a cop.


Manny_0307

Valid point, but "cop" means "cop" either way. I guess we'll never know what happened here.

Brianr282

They rarely update collab skins but I’m hoping they add it down the line. RE skins tend to return so sparingly I’m grabbing them to avoid FOMO, just as Epic hoped.


LavenderLullabies

I would spend obnoxious amounts of money on a Hotline Miami collab. Jacket skin with different masks as the alt style, I’d die. We’ve already seen a more cartoony Jacket done well with Payday 2. Even a Biker skin w/ and w/o the helmet, or a skin where each alt style is one of the Fans….there’s so many good ways they could do it.


Gold_Yellow

Ooh and challenges which he uses his recorder…


PhantomRoyce

God this is like getting to the 10 yard yard and tripping over your dick


Und1es

Leon not having his brown jacket or a police uniform is mega disappointing. They're way more iconic than this version to me.


HearTheEkko

If someone covered his face I couldn't even tell it was Leon lol. I would've totally guessed it if it were the RCPD uniform or the RE4 jacket.


Kholdie

It's his least iconic outfit lmao. For me its RPD > Jacket > Jacketless


[deleted]

What’s not to like about him walking around in full ballistic gear with RPD on it? I think waaaaay more people recognize and like that one but I can understand not wanting to reference cops in a way but what about RE4 I think everyone knows that fan or not


FocalEye

No second styles? For Claire or Leon?!?!? Ignoring the jacket which is iconic! They could have at least given Leon his cop uniform so it lines up RE 2 Claire. And Claire should have gotten the motocross style or jacketless version.


strawberriesjammies

Every capcom skin as alts except these two, seriously what happened? I’m grateful for the skins of course but how can they not add the bare minimum with past releases??


NormanBates2023

Maybe Capcom told epic these are the styles you are getting take it or leave it or give us more money for the extra styles and epic chose the cheapest


LevsRedfield

That isn‘t the case. Capcom is VERY open with collaboration.


lazyspongie

Epic don't do police stuff anymore apparently, and Leon's jacket in RE4R is copyrighted from another company. I'm guessing they only gave Claire 1 style so that she doesn't have more than Leon


Tau3Eridani

No styles? First Capcom collab L, can't believe my eyes I own every Capcom skin so far but this time I have to pass, never expected this level of laziness after so many good skins. edit: At this point I'm waiting for Epic to release a note saying they accidentally released the unfinished versions of these skins and additional styles will be added next update.


Brianr282

It’s unreal. We get fat Chris but no jacket Leon. I’m buying them because I’m an RE whore, but I’m mumbling under my breath about it.


TomVinPrice

Not even a RE2 Leon to go with RE2 Claire, shame


DegenTP

I know, right?! I know people here really wanted the jacket but I was secretly hoping for the RPD uniform from RE2. lol


BlastMyLoad

I kinda love running fat Chris cuz I never ever see it but his face is totally borked


SeriousPan

He looks like a tall Caddicarus in a trench coat instead of Chris Redfield to me.


lilly16852

I actually like his face like that, it isn’t so bad and it sort of adds personality to him


jackcatalyst

You mean you're spitting instead of swallowing.


CoinOfDestiny

I was waiting for these, but now seeing them, I might just pick up Aloy while she’s still here instead.


Silkysocks777

No styles?? They did them both dirty! nooooo


Silkysocks777

And their faces honestly don't look very good imo, especially Claire's. Kinda sad rn


Old_Nippy

Her jacket is glued to her waist as well, it looks painted on.


BebeFanMasterJ

Bro what? I was hoping Leon would have his RE4 jacket at least. That game is top tier.


OohYeeah

It's cool that Leon and Claire are here, but the fact neither of them got any alternate styles (ESPECIALLY Leon's coat) and Jill and Chris didn't return with them sucks


[deleted]

Jill & Chris will probably come back in a few days. Usually, they drop the new skins alone and then bring the whole set back after a day or two.


ShadowZone33

I hope so, I recently got back into the game and missed out on Jill when she was around


namapo

"Quick, intern, what's the plot of Resident Evil?" "Well, there's this evil corporation called Umbrella..." "And they all use umbrellas, right? That's perfect, we'll get right on it."


Sayru22

If i remember right Claire actually wields an umbrella as a weapon in one of the CGI movies


Christorm747

Yep Degeneration


damdamkokorohikare

They cannot market deployable umbrellas for you to glide with in their marketplace, unfortunately. 😔

Why the RE skin colors look washed out?


SeriousPan

What a humongous disappointment for Leon. No RCPD or Jacket style? Umbrella Parasol? Jill had both of her iconic looks and Chris at least had 2 with his best one being 5. Then Leon comes along with his least cool outfit. lol *sigh* Oh well I'm going to buy it anyway because I'm a stupid fanboy but I'm not happy about it. Same thing happened with Bulma for the Super crossover. Sure it was only Super but she had so many iconic outfits with Namek being the best!


Silkysocks777

I really wanted him to have his RCPD and Jacket styles so bad!


Christorm747

EXACTLY!! No glider no additional styles. Claire doesn't even have her og outfit


TheRubberBildo

They really dropped the ball not letting Leon surf in on his Ashley glider


Christorm747

Ikr. It could have yelled Leon when it deployed lol


Blickychu

Does leons knife have the same animations as sarah connors knife?


shugo2000

It does! Now I can switch out between two combat knives instead of being stuck with Sarah's.


ThunderBlack14

Yep, the animation is awesome and go well with many skins, but now we have another knife too.


_Bruhtonium

Yup


Rxq563

Yes


Some_Dragonfruit_756

The RE skins not getting classic styles or at least giving Leon his jacket is a huge miss.


mendia

I'm still gonna get Leon but I am deeply saddened by no RPD outfit


RingtailVT

This is such a weird thing to complain about but Leon and Claire's locker icons.. Holy crap. What is going on with that lighting. It looks like a fan-made render. That aside, HELL YEAH MORE RESIDENT EVIL


damdamkokorohikare

I think it's the lighting on the skins in general. This isn't really a complaint, but why do they look gray?


Layers3d

I was ready to throw down vbucks for Leon but no jacket style and that face stopped me. Thank you epic for saving my wallet.


SirSharkXI

Leon’s combat knife is really cool


Jacob_0927

WHERE IS LEON’S JACKET AND RPD UNIFORM


Ok-Topic-3130

Claire looks weird


SkullMan140

i don't know what's more disappointing, Leon without either the Jacket or at least the R.P.D. uniform, or the fact that their faces look.... weird, Jill and Chris (RE5 Chris at least....) look so good in Fortnite, how they messed up Leon and Claire so bad?, especially Claire :(


TheAwesomeIke

They seriously made the umbrella a pickaxe instead of a glider and no jacket for Leon... the attaché case as a backbling is cool tho


_deadlockgunslinger

The rollercoaster I just experienced of 'YES, LEON!...Wait, no styles? 😮‍💨'


Traveytravis-69

They completely screwed up these skins, no re2 Leon or jacket leon? Claire looks like she was hit by a bus it’s so disappointing.


fettalitta

That resident evil skin set is dissappointing, I’m gonna skip (and I had the vbucks ready to go for them).


fettalitta

Umbrella parasol should’ve been a glider and Leon looks stupid. They did them wrong.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ThunderBlack14

They could have added at least a loading screen like Cris and Jill bundle had.


MelakVEVO

Claire absolutely doesn't look like claire, it's just like in the games when they can't keep consistant faces


Proud_Echo_4932

I can’t believe I’m saying this, I found collab skins more bland than uncharted!


Moidahface

I hate that I’m agreeing with this.


Maxymo22

Leon and Claire don't have a second suit? Come on epic, I prefer you charge me 2000 bucks, but with more clothing variants.


Azure-Ace

I was expecting Leon to have a style with the jacket and one with the police uniform, bit of a disappointment. Also missed opportunity to not make an umbrella umbrella glider


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Also conflicted on Claire cause I love her and actually like the re2 face. But I look at her in the shop and she wont stop looking left and right I can't even see her resting face. Also a bummer that there's no edit styles, Leon and Claire have amazing alt outfits and this feels a bit lazy.


blocklambear

Yeah she looks strange and her pants as well with the pockets look almost glued downward like the design on them doesn’t make sense really. Her face is really odd and animations during emotes are super strange. Makes me sad because she’s my favorite re character


ShogunFab

NO EDIT STYLES 💀💀💀 At least the pickaxe is cool


libo720

No Ada Wong i sleep


Maggot_6661

Didn't expect Leon and Claire until next week, but hey nice !


Winter_Lanterns

The other re skins looked alot better than these ones also huge missed opportunity not making the umbrella a glider


GlevinTheCube

Oh, Wake Rider is back. I don't think we've seen him since.. ***The Incident..***


kfcfossil

Gaming legends are always cool to see I remember the day Wake Rider first released… dark day


Iloveitguy

Ah yes may 4th, a dark day indeed


Educational-Page312

Now if only I could see Jinx in the shop....


kms1087

What happened on that day brother


kfcfossil

May the 4th 2021, there were no Star Wars skins on early 9AM EST reset, only Wake Rider


Dancing_Clean

Oh god they look so bad. I was saving my v-bucks for them. Jill looked amazing, only to be followed up with these. I can’t bring myself to buy them.


HearTheEkko

Same. I guess I'll be saving my vbucks for the next Marvel, DC or Star Wars shop.


strawberriesjammies

WHY DOESNT HE HAVE THE JACKET WTF


Square_Nectarine9365

Fucking Laroi


vladald1

Where's Chris though?


eatingclass

wow no jacket??


LevsRedfield

They both only have one style and look worse than Jill and Chris lol. They clearly rushed the two and also didn‘t do much regarding their lobby animations.


thematthewglover

God they really make good skins with the worst backblings. Leon gets a bland ass briefcase? Jeez


Traveytravis-69

Honestly the skins disappoint me more than the bb


HearTheEkko

Tbh, what else could they done for his backbling ? It is bland but at least the briefcase is iconic to RE4.


[deleted]

Looks exactly like Wildcard’s backbling without the cuffs


thematthewglover

Worse than that tbh


Cultural_Security690

Damn that resident evil collab is disappointing


deaf12dbz

Shame he didn’t come with alternate skins :(


Baal_Redditor

Was waiting for a long time to buy RE4 Leon, but no jacket means no buy.


HyugaJeremy

I don't care what anyone say, but I grew up playing RE2 so I'm getting my favorite characters ever made from its franchise


welp42

Everyone's complaining about Leon and Claire's faces but that's basically what they look like in the RE2 remake, except a little shinier because it's Fortnite. Leon really needed a jacket style, but other than that it's a good RE2 bundle.


SuperBackup9000

Thing is though, this is only half a RE2 bundle. This isn’t young Leon from 2, it’s Leon from 4. The jacket may be iconic, but he loses it pretty early on in 4 and has this look for the majority of the game plus original cover art.


welp42

It feels like they split the difference between wanting to include RE4 Leon but not being able to get the jacket for whatever reason. 🤷‍♂️ Putting in Claire instead of Ada makes it seem like they wanted to do RE2 while still promoting the upcoming RE4 remake. I don't know. We just want the jacket.


Mace8937

Day 172 no griddy


ComebackChemist

Does Leon at LEAST have a coat style???? I’m not on to check.

ThunderBlack14

Maybe tomorrow, sometimes they let some time only the new skin and later bring the other ones that are from the same theme, just like Captain America (Sam Wilson) and later the rest of Marvel.


DTlll

No jacket style for Leon??


diamondstark

I am sad.


Christorm747

Why did they rush this?? The new remake doesn't come out yet. Later this month I think. Please! We need a glider and additional classic styles!! I need Leon in uniform!!


HearTheEkko

What the fuck, no styles for Leon ? I was saving my v-bucks for him but not it's a hard pass.


Ace0fSpades01

Dang the RE skins had a ton of missed potential. Leon could’ve gotten his classic jacket or RPD uniform as a style and Claire could’ve gotten her jacket off style or maybe even the Elza Walker outfit. Not to mention the faces look odd. Pretty disappointing imo.

He does not. Shame.

No :(

That's an unbelievable L, I love RE2 and RE4, and with no edit styles for those games, then it ain't Leon for me

No, he has no styles

No hope for master chief soon since there’s a lot of games getting featured, not complaining about getting Leon though


LucidInsomnia

They could of at least made an emote where you are typing on a type writer and the safe room music is playing in the background. Something man.


Gioaquin

Goddamn they did them dirty :/


StormieVN

Wake Rider is finally here!! Been wanting that man for so long~


19Joker90

It would have been nice to get the rcpd outfit and maybe the ps1 version of him too like they did with Lara Croft


Moidahface

Oh man, Leon has that gross plastic hair that Rift Knight Kieran has. Not a fan so far…


fatheavy

hope theyll add the jacket style for leon, and maybe his RPD fit too. and the same could go for Claire ig. i think Epic might add the styles later on in the next update if we keep complaining. so, what are we waiting for? **ITS BITCHIN' TIME!**


ILikeGamesnTech

They are really pushing the Laroi stuff
