For some time now,Fortnitehas had a close partnership with Deadpool, one of Marvel’s most popular anti-heroes. Recently,Fortniteintroduced Deadpool’s X-Force skin, in addition to theDeadpool skinsalready in the game. The skin offers a twist on the basic Deadpool’s red and black color scheme, but there are a few steps to go through before players can unlock it.
The skin is grey and black with red eyes, and can only be unlocked by players with a battle pass. Additionally, players will need to complete moreDeadpool challengesto unlock the X-Force skin, though most players should be used to that by now, as it’s been a necessary step since the beginning of the event.
How to Unlock Deadpool’s X-Force Skin
To unlock Deadpool’s X-Force skin, players will need to complete two challenges. First, players will need to “collect his unmentionables,” as Epic puts it, and salute his pants. The unmentionablesFortniteis referencing are Deadpool’s shorts, which can be found in Midas' room inFortnite HQ.Deadpool’s pants, on the other hand, will be in the eastern part of the town by Sandy Shores, hanging on a flag pole. Be ready for a fight, as there will likely be many other players trying to salute the pants at the same time.
With those challenges out of the way, players should unlock Deadpool’s X-Force skin. While Deadpool isn’tFortnite’sstrangest crossoveryet, it certainly has set players on some interesting missions. However, the skins have also been really solid, and Deadpool is a fan-favorite character for many, so seeing him represented inFortnitewas really just a matter of time.
Season 2 ofFortniteChapter 2 has been extendedto the summer, so players should have plenty of time to battle through the game’s various tiers. Luckily, the challenges to unlock Deadpool’s X-Force skin aren’t all that difficult, so most players with a battle pass shouldn’t have any trouble unlocking it for themselves.
There will likely be plenty more content forFortnitein the future, and it will be interesting to see which partnership pops up in the game next.
Fortniteis available now for Mobile, PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
