Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Midas Skin Release Date
The Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 Midas skin will be released on Tuesday, Mar. 19, 2024. The fan-favorite character will make his grand return to Epic Games' Battle Royale in update v29.01.
According to various leaks, Midas has been biding his time in The Underworld, and now that the Greek gods and goddesses have taken over Fortnite, he can once again rise (with the help of Hades, of course). The lore fits perfectly to resurrect one of the best original characters in Fortnite history.
Although Epic Games has not revealed a confirmed look at the new Midas coming to Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2, we expect Midas to rise with two golden hands.
