Unlike the Marvel-themed season that revolved around a single massive collaboration, Chapter 2 Season 5 of Fortnite has facilitated a multitude of small collaborations up till now. From Kratos to the Mandalorian, several bounty hunters from different franchises have arrived in the game already. While some of these new skins are a part of this season’s Battle Pass, others were available in the Item Shop for a limited time.
The latest franchise to join forces with Fortnite for the bounty hunter season is Street Fighter. The popular fighting video game series by Capcom is not only its best-selling venture, but has even laid the foundation for the one-on-one fighting game genre.

The picture not only portrayed the player as a child but also showcased a fighter thinking of casually annihilating him.
