Incredible Fortnite Cuddle Team Leader cosplay gets Epic Games’ approval
Epic GamesA jaw-dropping Fortnite cosplay, channeling the infamous Cuddle Team Leader skin, has garnered the approval of an Epic Games developer after it was shared to the game’s subreddit.
Despite cosplaying’s inherent popularity in the world of video games, Fortnite has not become the cosplaying giant some thought it might.
It’s potentially down to the difficulty of some of the skins to recreate, but that hasn’t deterred one Fortnite fan, who shared their amazing Cuddle Team Leader outfit on May 4. The cosplay was so impressive that one Fortnite developer weighed in to share their thoughts.

The Cuddle Team Leader skin – a giant pink teddy bear – is on paper an impossible task, requiring massive amounts of effort and creativity. However, the daunting challenge didn’t deter Redditor ‘iraelsayre’, who recently shared their interpretation of the skin.
The cosplay is bordering on flawless, with the full-body pink overalls complemented by a large foam head. There’s even a unicorn-style pick-axe in the cosplay, as well as Fortnite’s Battle Bus visible in the sky.
