You might’ve seen that viral Fortnite post making the rounds after an ad showed Poison Ivy with a little less cleavage on display: “the Summer skins have been censored”!
“The underboob lasted one day lmao I can’t,” said one fan. “As a straight woman, I wanted the underboob,” another replied.
Over 2,000 upvotes later, and with countless posts across social media echoing the same frustration, the video was deleted. Initially, people assumed it was due to the backlash and that Fortnite would “revert” the skin back to how it originally looked, but as it turned out, there was no censorship—Epic had used an unfinished model by accident.
“Help Batman track down DC Sirens Catwoman, Harley Quinn, and Poison Ivy and send them back to Arkham for sizzling in-game rewards!” the game’s official X account posted. And responding directly to the controversy, it added, “ft. Sunflower Ivy’s correct fit.”
You can boot up the game right now and find Poison Ivy in the Item Shop looking exactly like she did in the leaks and original promo, rather than the “censored” ad. She's included as part of a 2,300 V-Bucks bundle with Harley Quinn.
