Fortnite’s Mysterio Pickaxes Appear as Baseball Bats in One Match
A locker complaint describes bugs lasting an unusually long time, although their wider impact remains unknown.
Fortnite has produced another odd cosmetic glitch, with one player encountering what looks like Mysterio’s pickaxes rendered as two baseball bats during a match. The footage does not show whether the problem affects other players, and it offers no clue about what caused the swap.
Why Are There So Many Bugs In This Game Now? Mysterio’s Pickaxes Turn Into Dual Wielding Baseball Bats In-Game…

The gameplay view captures a purple-caped character holding a bat-like tool in each hand instead of the expected pickaxe appearance. There is no indication in the clip that the visual error changed item stats or affected gameplay beyond how the tools looked.
The broader complaint involves Fortnite’s locker, where bugs are described as having lingered for what feels like an unusually long period. That remains a single player’s account. No affected platform, bug identifier, fix timing, or developer response is included, so the scope of the locker issue cannot be measured from this material.
For now, the baseball-bat behavior is best treated as an unverified cosmetic error. More player examples or an official explanation would be needed to determine whether it is tied specifically to Mysterio’s items or connected to a wider locker problem.
