Fortnite has featured a diverse list of skins from the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), with the latest additions being Spider-Man Miles Morales along with the Spider-Man 2099 skins introduced in Chapter 4 Season 2. However, no new Marvel superhero skins have been added to the game this year, until now, where a new rumor from a reliable leaker suggests that Hulk and Hela from the 2017 “Thor: Ragnarok” movie might soon be showcased as outfits in Fortnite.
The Hulk Skin Will Reportedly Feature a Customizable Gladiator-Style
A reliable leaker and data miner who goes by HYPEX is the source behind this information and has accurately reported numerous such details regarding upcoming collabs and events within Fortnite. While their first post only showcased the skins, an update was provided later, with images featuring the names and descriptions of the two outfits.
The Hulk skin will be called the “Sakaaran Champion Hulk”, inspired by the scene in the movie where Thor is forced into a gladiator battle against him on planet Sakaar. Besides the new look, you can also choose to wear a headgear presumably called the Champion’s Helm, along with other accessories like the Pickaxe, Back Bling, and an Item Wrap.
On the other hand, the Hela outfit will be called “Hela Odinsdottir”, which might also have another style named “Einherjar Commander”. Apart from a sword-like Pickaxe other accessories have been revealed for her so far. Many fans are wondering why Epic Games has planned to release these outfits now, considering that the movie was released around 7 years ago.
However, there is a strong possibility that it might be related to the leaked Fortnite roadmap for 2024, which predicted the Billie Eilish collab for the Fortnite Festival and the Lego Farming update.
Although HYPEX has not provided a release date for these skins, they should arrive soon in the current or upcoming season of Chapter 5, given that their data is already available. Judging from past trends, each of these outfits might cost somewhere between 1,500 to 2,000 V-Bucks, including their accessories. While their possibility seems more than likely, a Lego version of these skins has not been unveiled by the leaker or any other credible source.
