Superman arrives in Fortnite as new season’s battle pass confirmed
He's being joined by Robin for Chapter 6 Season 3: Super.
Following on from the Star Wars season, Fortnite has confirmed the new Chapter 6 Season 3 battle pass, which is all about superheroes and features two DC comics skins - Superman and Robin.
Four years on from the last time DC characters were included in a Fortnite battle pass, this one sees Superman being modelled on David Corneswet's take on the character, ahead of his film being released in a month's time.
While players who buy the pass will unlock the Robin skin immediately, they will have to wait until the mid-season unlock for the Superman skin, unless they buy this season's Battle Bundle, which also gives you 25 battle pass levels for 1800 V-Bucks.
The battle pass is also introducing six new Fortnite original skins, which are called Haylee Skye, Ziggy, Synthwave, Killswitch, Lightrider and Morgan Myst.
Superman's furry best friend Krypto is also being introduced – players can throw a Krypto Treat and he will dive bomb to retrieve it, dealing serious damage to anyone or anything nearby.
The objective for the battle pass, which is called Super, is to go up against the dreaded Mask Maker Daigo and his minions, with locations including Supernova Academy, Utopia City and Demon’s Domain.
