Fortnite Brings Back Rare Superhero Skin After More Than a Year

After over a year's absence, the highly sought-after Wonder Woman skin has made a triumphant return to the Fortnite item shop! This isn't just the skin itself; the Athena's Battleaxe pickaxe and Golden Eagle Wings glider are back too, available individually or as a discounted bundle.

Epic Games' Fortnite continues its impressive streak of pop culture crossovers, spanning movies, music, and even clothing brands like Nike and Air Jordan. This latest comeback underscores the enduring popularity of superhero cosmetics within the game. DC and Marvel heroes are frequent additions, often timed to movie releases and sometimes even impacting gameplay with unique mechanics and weapons. Previous collaborations have featured multiple variations of characters like Batman and Harley Quinn, showcasing different interpretations.

Community member HYPEX confirmed the Wonder Woman skin's return after a 444-day hiatus, its last appearance being October 2021. The full bundle is priced at 2,400 V-Bucks, while the skin alone costs 1,600 V-Bucks.

This Wonder Woman revival follows a December resurgence of other popular DC skins, including Starfire and Harley Quinn. The current Chapter 6 Season 1's Japanese theme also introduced unique Batman and Harley Quinn skins—Ninja Batman and Karuta Harley Quinn.

With the Japanese theme continuing, more crossovers are anticipated. Dragon Ball skins have already made a comeback, and a Godzilla skin is slated for later this month, with rumors of a Demon Slayer crossover circulating. This Wonder Woman return offers fans another opportunity to acquire cosmetics for one of the most iconic female superheroes in the gaming world.
