Marshmello is making a comeback to Fortnite. However, there isn't going to be another digital concert. This time around, the artist plans to release official merchandise in collaboration with the game.
According to a recent leak, the collaboration is scheduled to occur on December 14 at 1.00 pm Eastern Time. In addition to real-life merchandise collaboration, items will also be featured in the in-game item shop.

What new Marshmello skin variants can players expect in Fortnite Chapter 3?

Based on leaks, two new dark skin variants will be added to the item shop on December 14. One will feature a gold headpiece and the other a disco-themed headpiece. A new harvesting tool and glider should also be present.
At the moment, it's unclear if the existing owners of the Marshmello skin will receive these edit styles. Given that this is an official collaboration, it may be an entirely new cosmetic set in-game.
How does the Fortnite community feel about the upcoming collaboration?
Unlike the official Ariana Grande merchandise, the community is eager for the Marshmello collaboration. Rather than simply adding a PNG image of the in-game character to the clothing, a proper design has been implemented.
The pricing is unknown, but it could range from anywhere between $30 to $70. More details regarding pricing and availability should be officially revealed soon.
How much would the new Marshmello set cost in-game?
So far, the words "marshmello fortnite" have been mentioned 510 times in tweets today alone. All of this happened after Mello announced the new golden style of his skin in the game. https://t.co/PDruY1ELAr
Cosmetics are likely to be split into three different bundles. The whole set will cost anywhere between 2,000 and 2,500 V-Bucks. The other two feature the skin and additional cosmetics separately and may cost between 1,500 and 1,800 V-Bucks each.
Since this is an official Icon Series collaboration, the cost may be higher than predicted. Players will have to wait for the cosmetics to be added to the item shop to get the official price.
Will Marshmello have another concert in Fortnite Chapter 3?
Also can we get another Marshmello concert in Fortnite, i'd just love to see how much crazier they could be with it when compared to the original one from forever ago
Much like its predecessors, Fortnite Chapter 3 is stated to last for roughly two years as well. Given the extended timeline, it's possible that another concert may occur in-game. However, for now, there are no details pertaining to the same.
Nevertheless, given that concerts happen once a year on average, the developers may have a surprise up their sleeves for sometime later next year. Hopefully, leakers will be able to uncover information about the same soon.
