Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 5
Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 5 is the latest event following the Nexus War, which was the game’s crossover with the Marvel Universe. This new event seems to focus less on one property, but instead will feature great hunters across different properties.
The Mandalorian is the first to appear in this latest season, and will seemingly be followed by Kratos. Currently, players can now immediately unlock The Mandalorian Beskar armor skin by purchasing the Battle Pass. Once the player completes 100 levels, they can get the Baby Yoda back bling.
Aside from this new skin, Fortnite also releases their monthly subscription service called “Fortnite Crew” which comes with the latest battle pass and exclusive cosmetics for a recurring monthly fee. To know the latest updates about Fortnite, make sure to follow our blog at TheGamingGenie.com!
