Fortnite's Next Season: "Wanted" - A Heist-Themed Adventure
Epic Games has unveiled the Battle Pass skins for Fortnite's upcoming season, aptly titled "Wanted." This heist-themed season, launching February 21st, ditches the codename for a straightforward title, promising a thrilling experience filled with gun-toting villains, gold-filled getaway vehicles, and explosive bank vaults.

The "Wanted" season features a major crossover with the Mortal Kombat franchise. Sub-Zero will be a featured Battle Pass skin, perfectly complementing the season's robbery theme. This collaboration coincides with the marketing push for Mortal Kombat 2, the upcoming film starring Karl Urban and Adeline Rudolph.
Skins will be priced at 1,500 V-Bucks each.

Returning weaponry includes the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. While other weapons remain unannounced, speculation based on Chapter 4 Season 4's heist theme suggests the potential return of the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler. These, however, are currently unconfirmed.
A noteworthy addition is the Smart Building mechanic, which anticipates your building needs based on your aiming direction.
Gameplay will also see a change, with vault breaches replacing keycards. Players will require Meltanite, a Fortnite equivalent of thermite, to access the vaults and secure their loot. Get ready for a high-stakes robbery adventure!
