Epic Games has finally decided to bring back Midas, the iconic Chapter 2 NPC, in Fortnite Myths & Mortals. After escaping from his cell in the Underworld, Midas can now be found at The Marigold Yacht, where he gives players the Mythic Drum Gun. Although the fan-favorite character arrived in Chapter 5 Season in the v29.01 update, his skin was not featured in the game's Item Shop. However, Ascendant Midas skin is finally available for everyone! Here's how you can easily obtain Ascendant Midas skin in Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 2.
How Can You Get Ascendant Midas Skin in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season?
Players who participated in the Rise of Midas Cup had the opportunity to get Ascendant Midas for absolutely free. Those players who finished on top of their regions received the skin, alongside Golden King's Cape Back Bling.
However, those who fail to compete in the cup or gain enough points can purchase Ascendant Midas in the Item Shop for 2000 V-Bucks. The character's skin comes with the Golden Touch ability and reactivity, allowing him to turn every item he touches into gold. The skin will become gold as the player's elimination counter rises throughout the match.
Here are all the Midas-related cosmetics that can be found in the Item Shop -
Ascendant Midas Skin
The Golden Touch Pickaxe
Golden Ascension Wrap
Golden Kin Cape's Back Bling
If you want all of Ascendant Midas' items, you can buy the Golden King Bundle for 2,500; you'll save 800 V-Bucks. If the previous Midas skin is any proof, Ascendant Midas will only be available in the item Shop for a limited time before it disappears for what could be years. So, it's crucial for you to make sure to get this skin as soon as possible so you don't miss out
How Long Will Ascendant Midas Skin Stay in Item Shop?
The Ascendant Midas skin will be in the Item Shop for a limited time. It will most probably be there until the Rise of Midas event ends on 2nd April 2024 or perhaps until the end of that week. Since it’s not tied to the season Battle, there’s a chance that it could feature in the Item Shop in the future.
