Fortnite is no stranger to a good collab, and now a gold medal Olympian is asking to join the fray with their very own skin.

Whether it’s bringing Solo Leveling, The Office, Power Rangers, and so many other beloved franchises to the game through skins, weapons, or even entire maps, one of Fortnite’s biggest features is its collaborations. So much so that celebrities are often asking to be added to the game, like Madison Beer.

Well, following the Winter Olympics, one gold medalist has asked Epic Games for her very own skin following a stellar figure skating win.

Gold medalist Alysa Liu “would love” a Fortnite skin

Speaking to USA Today Sports, Olympic gold medalist Alysa Liu, the first US women’s solo figure skater to win a gold medal in 24 years, revealed that she was a huge Fortnite fan, even going so far as to express her desire for her very own skin in the game.

“Would you want Fortnite to do a skin on you?” asked the interviewer, to which Liu quickly responded, “I would love Fortnite to do a skin on me. I would buy it.”

Currently, there are over 70 icons in Fortnite, all representing different celebrities from singers and DJs to footballers and Streamers.

There are even characters from K-Pop Demon Hunters and, of course, Hatsune Miku. Combine that with the multiple skins from various franchises, and getting a Fortnite skin as a gold medalist who broke a two-decade loss streak and won two Gold medals isn’t that unlikely.

Epic Games has yet to comment on Alysa Liu’s request.
