Epic Games has officially unveiled the exciting new Battle Pass skins for Fortnite's upcoming season, titled "Wanted." This season dives straight into the action without a codename, focusing on thrilling heist scenarios complete with gun-toting villains, gold-filled vans, and explosive bank vaults—everything you'd expect from a high-octane robbery adventure.

Mark your calendars for February 21, as that's when the "Wanted" season kicks off. Adding to the excitement, Fortnite is teaming up with the iconic fighting franchise Mortal Kombat. Fans can look forward to Sub-Zero joining the Battle Pass, perfectly complementing the season's heist theme with his chilling presence.

This collaboration is strategically timed to coincide with the promotion of the upcoming film, Mortal Kombat 2, featuring Karl Urban as Johnny Cage and Adeline Rudolph as Kitana. As always, skins will be available for purchase using V-Bucks, Fortnite's premium currency, with each character priced at 1,500 V-Bucks, maintaining the standard pricing.

Returning weapons confirmed for this season include the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. While other weapons remain unconfirmed, fans are buzzing with speculation about the potential return of items like the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler, drawing from the previous heist-themed season, Chapter 4 Season 4. Keep in mind, these are just rumors at this point.

One of the most anticipated features of the new season is Smart Building, an innovative mechanic that predicts the structure you need based on your aim direction, enhancing the strategic depth of gameplay.

In line with the heist theme, the season introduces a revamped gameplay mechanic, replacing keycards with vault breaches. Players will now use Meltanite, Fortnite's thermite equivalent, to crack open vaults and claim their hard-earned rewards.
