There are still a couple of days left before Chapter 2, Season 7 kicks off, which means that the teaser trailers for the new season are coming in fast. It also means plenty of debate fodder for fans of Fortnite to dissect and dish over. The game has seen pop culture legends like Lara Croft and The Mandalorian showing up on the field of battle in recent seasons and has previously dabbled in comic book characters with a slew of Marvel-themed content back in Fortnite Season 4 . DC Comics, meanwhile, hasn't seen quite the same amount of love in Fortnite thus far, but that's looking like it might be changing on June

Today, the Original Pickaxe hit the item shop along with the previously leaked OG skin sets. However, the OG Pickaxe is not gifted to players upon logging in like previous free items. Instead, it is listed under the Limited Time Offers section of the item shop, which usually houses bundles that can only be purchased with real money. When players redeem the OG Pickaxe, they are required to purchase the item from their console's store or the Epic Action games DLC|https://actionmixhub.com/ Store on PC. When tested on the PS4, the player was required to enter their credit card information regardless of the item having a total cost of

It's still cool that Fortnite continues to bring parts of its history from the dead as many players had assumed the OG Pickaxe wouldn't make its return. The same goes for the purchasable OG Default skins , which are now obtainable by using V-Bucks in the item shop. Hopefully, _Fortnite _ 's weird decision to make the OG Pickaxe part of the Limited Time Offers doesn't lead to malicious purchases in the fut

To unlock the Superman skin in Fortnite Season 7, players must first purchase a Season 7 Battle Pass. The Battle Pass operates a little differently in Season 7 than in previous seasons, but it still costs the same at 950 V-Bucks. There are many rewards to unlock this season, and some of the most highly anticipated rewards, including a Rick Sanchez skin and the Superman skin , require the Battle P

Rewarding players with free cosmetics is a great way to encourage them to complete whatever goal they are tasked with. This has proven effective for several Fortnite events including the crossover with Rocket League , concert with Travis Scott, and Marvel Knockout Super Series. This is also a great way for _Fortnite _ to retain its current player base while drawing in former players who have been away from The Island for a little too l

With over half of Fortnite's player base being between the ages of 10 and 12, it's unlikely that they will have their own credit card and will have to use their parents if they intend to redeem the OG Pickaxe. It's hard not to think back to the popular 2018 meme that fictionalized children stealing their parents' credit cards to buy V-Bucks . Most platforms have the option to save credit card information for future use, and this one-time free redemption of the OG Pickaxe could lead to accidental or intentional purchases in the future. While Epic Games may not have malicious intent when requiring the Pickaxe to be redeemed through the system's store, it does raise the question as to why the developer wouldn't distribute the item the same way it has in the p

The superhero fun began with the likes of Thanos and Deadpool being added as playable character skins in Fortnite , with the Avengers, X-Men, Ghost Rider, and Venom joining them throughout this year’s wave of Fortnite Season 4 DLC. Back in August, it was announced that the Joker and Poison Ivy would be among the comic book icons coming to the game, with a teaser trailer for the pair being leaked on social media a week ago. Now, it seems the wait is over, and both of these classic villains are ready to step into the brightly colored, bullet-riddled world of Fortnite - and they’ve brought a few toys with them

While prices for each have not yet been revealed, it is likely the Superman items cost around the same amount as other Fortnite Season 7 Battle Pass rewards. This means banners, sprays, and loading screens may cost around 3 or 4 Battle Stars, the Back Bling, emotes, and gliders around 5 to 7 Battle Stars, and the skins around 8 to 10 Battle St

Today, Fortnite tweeted another teaser image for the Marvel Knockout Super Series featuring the silhouette of who could only be presumed as Black Widow. The caption to the image was a series of emojis that depict Black Widow's iconic emblem as well as a spider. The tournament will be open to everyone in teams of three and will take place on November 11. Like previous events, the top-placing teams will gain access to the Black Widow skin before it hits the item shop at a later d

Not that Fortnite needs the Reboot A Friend program to keep its player base. Even though some of the internet's largest streamers (Ninja, Tfue, TimTheTatman) have seemingly left Fortnite , it still remains one of the most-watched games on Twitch with hundreds of thousands of viewers at any given time. Other titles, such as Roblox , have even attempted to replicate Fortnite 's live events due to the massive number of players that they draw. Yet, Fortnite still continues to present new ideas that further enlarges its already massive follow
