Overview

• Riot co-founder Marc Merrill announced that the Arcane-themed Jinx and Vi skins will not return to Fortnite in the foreseeable future.
• The skins, introduced in late 2021 and early 2022, have been unavailable for over three years despite strong fan demand.
• Riot and Epic Games have held extensive discussions but have not reached an agreement on the timing, licensing, or strategic fit for a re-release.
• Merrill acknowledged the passion of fans advocating for the skins' return but emphasized that demand alone is insufficient to drive a re-release.
• Riot stated they will update fans if circumstances change, leaving a small possibility for future developments.
