The most important tidbit to recognize here, however, is that the wrap won’t be tied to a Battle Pass, which the previous six wraps were.

This indicates that new wraps could soon be hitting the shop in the coming weeks and months. It’s something that the community would surely be fully behind given the number of concepts people have created since the start of Season 7.

There’s also a possibility that the wrap could be added to the game through a set of challenges, which many items in the game have gotten over the last few months.

As with any leak, though, Epic has not confirmed anything and this file could very well be removed from the game with December 11’s v7.01 update.
