Disney might be getting its own dedicated store within Fortnite, and it could be announced very soon.
A leaked image has surfaced online showing what appears to be a separate store section for Disney and Marvel skins that Fortnite has had thus far. The reason for Disney and Epic for going down this route is unclear, but it’s possible that due to the many collaborations between them, perhaps they wanted to make their skins more readily available.
RUMOR: FIRST LOOK AT AN UPCOMING DISNEY ITEM SHOP 🔥
This image was sent to @HYPEX & me earlier today. The person who sent this to us explained that Epic Games is “developing a Disney IP store in Fortnite” 👀
If accurate, this update might be announced at D23 tomorrow! pic.twitter.com/7HPxUGiaUr

Many Disney skins, such as Darth Vader and the original Spider-Man, can’t be obtained anymore either because they were limited-time items or locked away behind previous battle passes.
D23 takes place from August 9-11 so it’s possible that this announcement could be revealed there. Coincidentally, Fortnite is making a big change to its battle-pass structure. Starting with the upcoming Chapter 5 Season 4 battle pass, items will not be exclusive to the season they belong to.
Additionally, Disney pumped $1.5 billion into Fortnite back in February, which makes the revelation of a apparently separate store for Disney IP much more interesting.
