Get ready to assemble your Avengers, because Fortnite just revealed brand new item shop skins for Captain America and Iron Man!
Avengers Assemble! Timed with the release of Marvel Blitz, Fortnite has revealed an all-new addition to the Fortnite x Marvel lineup. Coming to the item shop tonight, new skins for Captain America and Iron Man will make their debut on the map. Based on their appearances in The First Avenger and the original Iron Man, respectively, these new versions of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes are here to take the fight to the Ice King in Fortnite Showdown.
Cap’s attire is his classic World War II tactical suit from his battle against Red Skull. Iron Man’s, on the other hand, is his classic Mark III suit from the film’s finale and the clash with Iron Monger. But don’t take my word for it, assemble your Avengers and check out the full reveal image below.
AVENGERS ASSEMBLE
These new skins look fantastic, and the news gets better. Fortnite has confirmed that both skins will be making their debut in the item shop TONIGHT, so players can look forward to unleashing their new Avengers on the map from the off.
Of course, these are the latest in a long line of Marvel skins that the collaboration with Marvel has yielded. But this is the first time in over six years that Steve Rogers’ Captain America has received a new skin. Of course, we’ve had an awesome new skin for Sam Wilson’s version of the character, but this is the first reskin for Steve Rogers. Iron Man, on the other hand, has seen several new variants since the multi-million-dollar deal with Disney. From his Mark 45 armour from Avengers: Age of Ultron to his Iron Legion set, the Armoured Avenger has enjoyed a massive resurgence in the game.
RELEASE
As mentioned at the top of the post, Fortnite has confirmed that both skins will be making their debut in the item shop TONIGHT, so players can look forward to unleashing their new Avengers on the map in time for the new season launch. Fortnite Showdown promises to be a landmark season for players, especially with the inclusion of Bugs Bunny.
But with new skins for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Foundation and the Ice King, the new season promises to be a throwback to classic Battle Passes of the past. So there’s plenty to enjoy on the map just now, and with Fortnite now available on Google Play, there has never been a better time to enjoy the game with your friends. Just brace yourself for the V-Bucks changes. I’ll see you out there!
The Fortnite x Marvel collaboration drops into the item store tonight.
