Reliable sources suggest Fortnite is poised to introduce a new Wolverine skin, based on his iconic Weapon X persona. Fortnite's history is replete with crossovers featuring characters from popular franchises like Marvel and Star Wars, including recent additions like Captain Jack Sparrow. The game's Marvel collaborations date back to Season 8, with characters like Black Widow and Star-Lord. Since then, numerous X-Men characters, including Gambit, Rogue, Mystique, and recently Magneto (in his Wastelander guise), have joined the roster. Wolverine himself debuted in Chapter 2, Season 4, sporting various outfits ranging from his classic comic book appearances to his movie attire and the "Wolverine Zero" variant.

Recent leaks indicate that Epic Games is adding Wolverine's infamous Weapon X outfit. Leaker Shiina predicts a July 5th release, part of a five-item unlockable cosmetic set. HYPEX, another leaker, suggests an even earlier release, between June 28th and July 2nd.

Potential Fortnite Weapon X Wolverine Skin Release Dates:

• Rumored Window: June 28th - July 2nd, 2024
• Rumored Date: July 5th, 2024

The Weapon X appearance is significant, referencing Wolverine's origins as a government experiment, resulting in an adamantium skeleton and heightened aggression. This look has appeared in various movies, games like X-Men Legends, and Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.

While leakers Shiina and HYPEX acknowledge potential date changes, they believe the skin will arrive early next month. Further rumors hint at a Chapter 5, Season 4 return of Galactus, though Epic has yet to officially confirm either rumor.
