Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 3 has introduced a host of new skins in the Battle Pass, but the additional skin this season not unlocked through the Season Pass is Magneto. The character appears in the game for the first time after the incredibly popular and critically acclaimed X-Men 97, released on Disney Plus, making it the perfect time to introduce the character to the game.
Below, we’ve outlined when you can unlock the skin, as it will be released later, and what you need to do to unlock the famous Marvel villain.
How to Unlock Magneto
Unlocking Magneto is achieved by completing a series of challenges released the same day the skin is released. These challenges will then need to be completed; alongside the skin, they will also unlock a variety of other goodies, including a backbling, spray, alternate skin and much more.
Here are the challenges below:
- Visit the Weapon X Lab (Unlocks wallpaper)
- Collect Magneto Power (Spraypaint)
- Travel 300 metres in the air with the Magneto Power equipped (Harvesting Tool)
- Hit 10 vehicles using Magento's Power (Icon)
- Complete Page one Quests for the second batch (Skin & Backbling)
- Eliminate five opponents using Magento's Power
- Block 200 hits using Magneto's Power (Glider)
- Deal 2,000 damage to opponents from one story above (Emote)
- Configure three Rift Beacons (Weapon Wrap)
- Complete Page two quests (Alternate Skin and Backbling)
The skin is only available to players who have the Battle Pass, so if you have not purchased the Battle Pass for this season, you will need to do so to get the challenges and unlock Magneto.
