Fortnite 5.3 SKINS LEAKED: Update 5.30 Patch Notes reveal new skins coming to shop SOON
Fortnite servers are down this morning with matchmaking temporarily offline as Epic Games goes about releasing the brand new 5.3 update and patch notes for the game.
For those wondering, this is for both game modes – Battle Royale and Saver the World – and all available platforms, including PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC and iOS and Android smartphone devices.
Official patch notes have arrived for the new update and as with every update, there's also a number of secrets hidden inside the game's code. And like before, the update has been datamined by users – such as @FortniteBR and @TwoEpicBuddies who have revealed a number of new items on their way to the game shop.
There are new upcoming cosmetics, including new skins, pickaxes, gliders, back bling and emotes.
It's unclear when these new items could go live in the game, but it's likely going to be spread out over the next few days and possibly weeks as items you can obtain from the shop when it refreshes each morning at 1AM BST.
Take a look at the new cosmetics below:

It also looks like the games Road Trip Skin has been revealed as per the new update today.
That's because the Week 7 Road Trip Loading screen is due to release tomorrow, along with the Week 7 Challenges.
And for the skin to be available from tomorrow – for all those who complete all Road Trip challenges – it needed to be included in the files for today's 5.3 update.
You can take a look at what we believe will be the new Road Trip Skin, just below.
HOW TO GET THE ROAD TRIP SKIN?
It's simple – all you've got to do is complete all seven weekly challenges for the first seven weeks of Season 5.
Each time you complete all seven challenges, you'll earn another tick on that Road Trip Challenge screen in the game.
Equally, it's also worth mentioning that you'll also unlock a new loading screen for the game; leading you to a hidden Battle Star in the map to help you level up faster on your Battle Pass.
