Fortnite Resurrects Rare Marvel Skin After Hibernation

The highly anticipated Wonder Woman skin has returned to the Fortnite item shop after a year-long hiatus! This isn't just the skin; the Athena's Battleaxe pickaxe and Golden Eagle Wings glider are also back.

Epic Games' Fortnite continues its trend of exciting crossovers, collaborating with diverse franchises from pop culture and beyond. Recent partnerships have even extended to clothing brands like Nike and Air Jordan. This latest return of a fan-favorite superhero cosmetic is a prime example of this strategy.

Superhero skins are a mainstay in Fortnite, featuring iconic characters from DC and Marvel. These collaborations often coincide with new movie releases, sometimes even introducing unique gameplay elements and weapons. Characters like Batman and Harley Quinn have seen numerous variations, reflecting different iterations from the comics. Wonder Woman's return marks another significant addition to this roster.

The Wonder Woman skin's reappearance, confirmed by HYPEX after a 444-day absence (last seen October 2023), includes the Athena's Battleaxe and Golden Eagle Wings, available individually or as a discounted bundle. The skin costs 1,600 V-Bucks, while the bundle is priced at 2,400 V-Bucks.

This follows a December resurgence of popular DC skins, including Starfire and Harley Quinn. Fortnite's Chapter 6 Season 1, with its Japanese theme, also introduced Ninja Batman and Karuta Harley Quinn skins.

The return of these DC skins coincides with an exciting new competitive season for Fortnite. The Japanese theme has led to collaborations with Japanese media, including a limited-time return of Dragon Ball skins. A Godzilla skin is also slated for release this month, with rumors of a Demon Slayer crossover in the future. Wonder Woman's comeback gives fans another opportunity to acquire cosmetics for this iconic female superhero.
