Fantastic Four Fortnite skins release date and every cosmetic confirmed for the new movie

Marvel's first family is making their way to Fortnite in a new collection of cosmetics, celebrating the arrival of Fantastic Four: First Steps.

Despite recent issues with the 36.20 update leading to extended downtime and necessitating an official statement from Epic Games, Fortnite continues to deliver fresh content for its players. Following Superman's introduction in the Super Battle Pass, players have been enjoying deploying Krypto to annihilate enemies and harnessing the powers of the man of steel to unexpectedly wreak havoc on unsuspecting passers-by.

The superhero theme doesn't stop there, as it has been announced that a selection of (we're choosing our words carefully here) Fantastic Four Fortnite skins are coming to the game to mark their debut in the MCU. This news has sparked excitement among many fans, particularly as this marks the first appearance in the game for Pedro Pascal until the game introduces skins for Pedro Almodovar's A Strange Way of Life. Don't hold your breath though.

So, when exactly can we anticipate the arrival of the Fantastic Four Fortnite skins? Here's what you need to know about the upcoming cosmetics.

Fantastic Four Fortnite release time

The Fantastic Four Fortnite skins are set to be released on Friday, July 25 at 5pm PDT / 8pm EDT, and Saturday, July 26 at 1am BST. This information comes straight from the horse's mouth as the official Fortnite account has unveiled the date in a fresh

, with the release time based on the Item Shop rollover time.

These skins are expected to grace the Item Shop for about a week before they depart, similar to the Fortnite Street Fighter cosmetics. However, unlike the returning fighting game characters, we anticipate that the Fantastic Four Fortnite skins will make a comeback shortly after.

It's common for new cosmetic crossovers to return within roughly a month at this stage, but beyond that, it's tricky to predict when they'll reappear in the Item Shop, so you might want to grab them as soon as you can.

Fantastic Four Fortnite skins

So far, the confirmed cosmetics coming to the game in the Fantastic Four Fortnite skins include the outfits themselves, along with a few bonus extras. Although there are bundles yet to be confirmed, here's what we know:

• Johnny Storm and his Human Torch alternate outfit can be switched on the fly with the Flame On! Emote, and comes with the Torch's Flame Pickaxe
• The Thing comes with a Ben Grimm style, meaning that we could get to see Ebon Moss-Bachrach's likeness in the game
• Reed Richards comes with the Fantastic Fists Pickaxe and Fantastic Calculations Emote
• Susan Storm has a universal Psionic Orbs Pickaxe

Fortunately, there are other cosmetics related to Marvel's first family that you can acquire through other means.

Fantastic Four Fortnite Cup

A new Fantastic Four Fortnite Cup is being held to celebrate the launch of the new cosmetics, offering you the opportunity to not only bag some exclusive loot, but also get your mitts on the family of characters early and for free. When the Fantastic Four Battle Royale Squads Cup commences on Wednesday, July 23, you'll earn the It's Clobberin' Time Spray if you survive for a total of 60 minutes, and you'll receive the Flame On Emoticon for surviving a total of 120 minutes.

Moreover, if you're one of your region's top scoring squads, you'll unlock the full cast of Fantastic Four Fortnite skins for free as part of the entire cosmetic bundle along with other items. It's a brilliant way of encouraging intense play, if you reckon you've got the guts for it. We hope for your sake that you're – ahem – fantastic.
