Rare Superhero Skin Returns in Fortnite After Hiatus

After a year-long hiatus, the highly sought-after Wonder Woman skin has made a triumphant return to the Fortnite item shop. This isn't just the skin itself; the Athena's Battleaxe pickaxe and Golden Eagle Wings glider have also reappeared.

This comeback follows a December resurgence of several DC characters in the shop, including new Japan-themed variants of Batman and Harley Quinn. Fortnite's collaborations are legendary, spanning pop culture, music, and even fashion brands like Nike and Air Jordan. The game's consistent stream of crossover cosmetics keeps players engaged.

Superhero skins are a major part of Fortnite's appeal, with numerous DC and Marvel heroes gracing the game. Marvel crossovers often coincide with film releases, sometimes even introducing new gameplay elements. Characters like Batman and Harley Quinn boast multiple variations, reflecting different comic book iterations. Wonder Woman's return after over a year is a significant event for fans.

The Wonder Woman skin is available for 1,600 V-Bucks, with a discounted bundle including the pickaxe and glider for 2,400 V-Bucks. Community member HYPEX noted the skin's 444-day absence, its last appearance being in October 2023.

This Wonder Woman revival joins other recent DC character returns, such as Starfire and Harley Quinn. The current Chapter 6 Season 1, with its Japanese theme, also introduced Ninja Batman and Karuta Harley Quinn.

Fortnite's ongoing Japanese-themed season continues to deliver exciting crossovers. Dragon Ball skins have made a temporary return, and a Godzilla skin is expected later this month, with a Demon Slayer crossover rumored to follow. The return of Wonder Woman provides fans another opportunity to acquire this iconic female superhero's cosmetics.
