Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 Launches February 21 – Includes Mortal Kombat Crossover

Fortnite's Next Season: "Wanted" – A Heist-Themed Adventure

Epic Games has unveiled the new Battle Pass skins for Fortnite's upcoming season, aptly titled "Wanted." This heist-themed season promises high-octane action, featuring villainous characters, gold-laden vehicles, and explosive bank vaults.

Breaking from previous season conventions, the codename has been dropped in favor of the straightforward "Wanted" title. The focus will be squarely on elaborate robberies.

Launching February 21st, the season will include a crossover with the Mortal Kombat franchise. Sub-Zero will be a featured Battle Pass skin, perfectly complementing the heist theme.

This collaboration coincides with the marketing of 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 (the previous heist season) suggests potential returns for the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler. These, however, are currently unconfirmed.

A significant addition is Smart Building, a feature that anticipates your construction needs based on aiming direction.

The heist theme extends to gameplay mechanics. Keycards are out, replaced by vault breaches requiring Meltanite (Fortnite's equivalent of thermite) to access valuable rewards.
