Master Chief, the iconic protagonist of the Halo series, made a triumphant return to Fortnite as a skin after a hiatus of over two years, much to the delight of fans. However, this celebration was slightly marred by a contentious issue surrounding a special Matte Black style of the skin. Initially, this style was exclusively awarded to players who used the Xbox Series S|X, with promises that it could be obtained at any time. The sudden decision to discontinue this style was met with significant backlash from the community.
The announcement led to frustration among players, with some even contemplating legal action, believing it might breach certain consumer protection laws. The situation escalated quickly, prompting discussions about a potential class action lawsuit. Fortunately, Epic Games responded promptly to the outcry. Just one day later, they reversed their decision, ensuring that the Matte Black style would remain available to all owners of the Master Chief skin, provided they played at least one game on an Xbox Series S|X.
This reversal was widely seen as the best course of action, especially given the timing during the holiday season. With many players enjoying the festivities of Christmas, maintaining a positive atmosphere was crucial. Epic Games' swift response helped preserve the holiday spirit and kept the community's mood upbeat, avoiding any unnecessary spoiling of the festive cheer.
