The new skin from Fortnite is setting in infamous memory among the players for the sheer madness it has elicited. Golden Assassin Jin is dripping with style. The announcement of the skin came through an official tweet by ShiinaBR, one of the most watched Fortnite leakers and content creators, and the reactions that followed were unprecedented and thoroughly entertaining. Its hype and interesting reactions are enough to sweep the community off a buzz.

What does this skin even stand for? The Golden Assassin Jin is literally that: an elegant, gold-themed assassin with unbelievably ample amounts of style. Very minimalistic in design, the colors give it that precious glow, and honestly, this is a skin you would set out there in the lobby for all to see. ShiinaBR shared the link where it can be bought, while entering the creator code “Shiina” at checkout will help him. Sounds ut, right?

The reactions were just insane. There are this wide range of opinions going from people outrightly going bonkers to those making it all the more funny. Here’s an example: SRW Cheeto replied with a chaotic half-excitement half-despair kind of outburst, “What the hellly am I doing at work then? Rahhhhhhhhhh yayyyyyy.” Mood. Soulbound TV’s reply has to be the realistic view: “Can’t hide in bushes when you look this iconic 😭.” Literally this skin is screaming: “Here I am”!

Others remain unconvinced. Luis, with calculated brutality, said, “Mid can’t lie 🥱.” Ouch. Meanwhile, Ahmad Aziz was more optimistic-they said, “pure drip,” which is what we really needed. This skin definitely splits everybody; love it or hate it, this is one skin that will rarely be ignored.

Hilarious and random commentary ensued. “The farmer is hilarious 😂,” said Ray which… okay? Would someone please explain where this has gone? And then there’s Otaku’s side story waiting for Hawkgirl in Fortnite (Day 29 to be exact). That is dedication.

The obligatory mention for creator codes after any solid Fortnite skin release, of course. Hopefully, lolbrandon can attest to the lure of his code, “If you’re planning on purchasing anything in tonight’s shop, it’d mean a lot to me if any of you consider using my creator code ‘lolbrandon’!”

But here’s the real question—is this skin worth it? Some players say it is must-cop; others are calling it overrated. Ultimately, personal preference wins out. If you sleek with golden assassins, then consider this whole thing to be your new main. If not? You’ll cop the next.

Fortnite definitely knows how to keep a conversation going however. From skins to memes and ongoing endless debates on what’s mid and what’s fire, the community remains. Rumors of even more content might signal that the hype train is far from slowing down.

Will you be picking up Golden Assassin Jin? Or are you holding out for something else? One way or another, Fortnite is locking down its player base and providing that much more fuel for this skin to be atop. Now I will need to ask for forgiveness while heading to flex some gold in the lobby.
