Trivia[]

  • Ben Shafer, Senior Concept Artist at Epic Games changed the scary art style of Save The World's Husks into a more unique and different style gameplay shifting towards a lighthearted bond, and childhood fantasy exploration. Ben Shafer took the face and pulled the skull out of the face and through the mouth which left the Husk with a skin hoodie flapping.
  • In Fortnite: China, Husks do not show their skull and look more like a human.
  • A Husk can appear as an Epic Mini Boss.
