Hints for the next Remix chapter of Fortnite have been revealed through teaser packages. The packages were sent to creators and media, which included several items showing off what Fortnite OG Remix Chapter 2 will include.
According to Shiina on X, some creators have already received packages with pins and other extras and items hinting at what the next chapter will include. Among these is a pin showing a cat face with a scar, leading to speculation that the chapter will include a mashup of two of the most popular Fortnite skins of all time, Meowscles and Midas, dubbed “Meowdas” by fans.
“Meowdas” would be a fun throwback to the popular Fortnite skins introduced back in Season 2. The preview packages also suggest that Boogie Bombs may be making a comeback, much to the terror of seasoned players.
Meoscles And Midas Are Two Of The Most Popular Fortnite Skins
A Mashup Is Exciting, Though Fans Wish The Game Would
Meowscles features an adorable cat head on a comically muscular body, while Midas is a dapper, noir-esque take on the King Midas myth. A combination of the two might result in a swole but dapper Meowscles with Midas’ golden hand and, as the promotional pin suggests, a facial scar.

Fortnite Fans May Be Getting What They Hoped For As Epic Removes Caffeinated Emote From The Shop
Within 24 hours, Epic has temporarily pulled the Caffeinated Emote after fan backlash about the speed of the Sabrina Carpenter song ruining the emote.
As exciting as a combined skin would be, some players feel that Fortnite doesn’t need any more of these characters, which already have numerous reskins between the two of them. Some fans on the Resetera forum accuse Epic Games of using the remixes as filler content, pointing out that bringing back old skins should be done in conjunction with (and not instead of) creating new content.
We Just Hope The Boogie Bombs Aren’t Actually Coming Back
They Were One Of The Most Annoying Fortnite Items
The Fortnite promotional packages hint that the game will be bringing back another item that players aren’t as excited about. The Boogie Bomb, like Midas and Meowscles, was introduced in Season 2. When thrown, they force all players in the area of effect to start dancing for several seconds. Although the idea behind them is fun and hilarious, they ended up just being a huge annoyance and were eventually removed from the game.
Now, fans are worried that it might be returning during the next chapter, as one of the pins included in the promotional packages looks distinctly like the bomb. ProfessoriSepi‘s comment on Reddit captures the general opinion that fans have of the notorious Boogie Bombs potentially coming back into the game.
Fortnite’s current season ends on November 2, with the next scheduled for release immediately after. The community will have to wait until then to see if the dreaded boogie bomb is making a comeback to Fortnite and whether “Meowdas” is as ridiculous as expected.
