How to unlock the Thanos skin
On June 26 starting 8 p.m. ET, players can visit the Fortnite Item Shop and unlock the skin.
Once unlocked, players can compete against others as the Mad Titan and equip the Infinity Gauntlet Back Bling. Inspired by Avengers: Endgame, the item is also complete with all six of the Infinity Stones.
