Harley Quinn Set For A Smashing Fortnite Debut And Here She Is In Action
In addition to her iconic outfits, gamers can also choose to equip her with a baseball bat or a mallet instead of the standard pickaxe. All of this info comes from famed Fortnite leaker Lucas7yoshi who gleaned the data from game files.
It's highly likely that the new Harley Quinn skin will arrive tomorrow, February 6th. Judging by the challenges that have been uncovered, the outfit in the foreground (image seen above) appears to be the standard version. Completing any of the three challenges below will unlock the outfit in the background:
