Epic Games has officially unveiled the exciting new Battle Pass skins for Fortnite's upcoming season, titled "Wanted." This season, which launches on February 21, dives into the thrilling world of heists, complete with gun-toting villains, gold-laden vans, and explosive bank vaults—everything you'd expect from a high-stakes robbery adventure.

A standout feature of this season is its collaboration with the iconic fighting game series, Mortal Kombat. Fans will be thrilled to see Sub-Zero join the Battle Pass, seamlessly integrating the season's heist theme into the new skins. This partnership coincides with the promotional campaign for the upcoming film, Mortal Kombat 2, featuring Karl Urban as Johnny Cage and Adeline Rudolph as Kitana.
Players can acquire these new skins using V-Bucks, Fortnite's premium currency, with each character priced at 1,500 V-Bucks, consistent with previous offerings.

In terms of gameplay, the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret are set to make a comeback. While other weapons like the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, Tommy Gun, and the Grappler are rumored to return, these remain unconfirmed at this time.
A highly anticipated addition is the Smart Building feature, which intuitively predicts and constructs the structure you need based on your aiming direction, enhancing the strategic aspect of gameplay.
Aligning with the heist theme, this season introduces a revamped gameplay mechanic where keycards are replaced by vault breaches. Players will use Meltanite, Fortnite's version of thermite, to break into vaults and secure their rewards, adding a fresh layer of excitement and challenge to the game.
