How to get the Magneto skin in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3

Magneto, the X-Men character whose awesome powers are balanced out by history’s goofiest helmet, is a special skin in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3. Like Korra, Solid Snake, Geralt of Rivia, and Wolverine from seasons past, the Magneto skin is exclusive to battle pass holders for the season it appears in, and requires a series of challenges to unlock. Here is how to unlock Magneto in Fortnite, plus all the various cosmetics and challenges associated with the skin. How to get Magneto in Fortnite To get Magneto in Fortnite, you first need to have the Chapter 5 Season 3 battle pass. The skin itself is available as of Tuesday, July 2, and once you have completed three of Magneto’s dedicated list of challenges, the Wastelander Magneto skin is yours. From there, you can complete further challenges to unlock alternate styles and associated cosmetics. You can unlock Magneto until Chapter 5 Season 3 ends on Aug. 16 at 2 a.m. ET. Once that date has passed, the skin is no longer available to acquire — but provided you’ve unlocked it on your account before then, it’s yours to keep forever.
