Reliable sources suggest Fortnite is soon adding a new Wolverine skin based on his iconic Weapon X appearance. Fortnite boasts numerous guest character skins from franchises like Marvel and Star Wars, with recent additions including Captain Jack Sparrow. Marvel collaborations have been a staple since Season 8, featuring characters like Black Widow and Star-Lord. Wolverine himself debuted in Chapter 2, Season 4, sporting various outfits including his classic comic book attire and looks inspired by the Fox X-Men films.
Rumors point to Epic Games adding Wolverine's infamous Weapon X outfit, possibly as early as July 5th, according to leaker Shiina. This skin is supposedly part of a five-item cosmetic set. Another leaker, HYPEX, suggests an even earlier release between June 28th and July 2nd.
Potential Fortnite Weapon X Wolverine Skin Release Dates:
- Rumored Window: June 28th, 2024 - July 2nd, 2024
- Rumored Date: July 5th, 2024
The Weapon X outfit is a significant addition, reflecting Wolverine's origins as a government experiment resulting in an adamantium skeleton and primal instincts. This look has appeared in various media, including X-Men Legends and Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3.
While leakers Shiina and HYPEX acknowledge potential date shifts, they anticipate a release early next month. Further rumored collaborations include the possible return of Galactus in Chapter 5, Season 4, though Epic Games hasn't officially confirmed any of these details.
