Fortnite Fantastic Four Skins Release Date
Epic Games has now confirmed the official release date! The Fantastic Four skins will hit the Item Shop on July 25th, 2025, at 8 PM ET. This timing matches perfectly with the movie release date. However, you can get these skins even earlier! There’s a special tournament called the Fantastic Four Cup happening on July 23rd, 2025. If you do well in this tournament, you can unlock all four skins before they go on sale in the shop.
How to Get Skins Early in the Fantastic Four Cup
The Fantastic Four Cup is a Battle Royale Squads tournament where you can unlock the skins earlier. Here’s what you need to know:

All Fortnite Fantastic Four Skins
You will get all four main characters from the team that will be released to the Battle Royale island. Here’s what each bundle has:
Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic)
Reed’s bundle comes with his main skin in the movie, which has facial hair. You also get the Fantastic Fists Pickaxe and the Fantastic Calculations Emote. The emote shows Reed drinking coffee while he thinks about strategy. His pickaxe and emote work differently when you wear his outfit. The Fantastic Fists show special stretchy effects that match his powers.
Sue Storm (Invisible Woman)
Sue’s bundle has her skin and the Psionic Orbs Pickaxe. This pickaxe creates special visual effects that look different when you wear Sue’s outfit. The psionic orbs show her invisible powers in action. Sue is known as the powerful leader of the Fantastic Four, and her cosmetics reflect her psionic abilities perfectly.
Johnny Storm (Human Torch)
Johnny gets the coolest transformation in the game! His bundle includes his normal skin, but you can use the built-in “Flame On!” Emote to transform into his fire version. You also get the Torch’s Flame Pickaxe. Johnny is the hot-headed pilot of the team, and his fire effects look amazing when you use his pickaxe with his outfit.
Ben Grimm (The Thing)
Ben’s bundle comes with his normal look and his rocky Thing transformation. You get his outfit that shows both styles – the regular Ben Grimm and his super-strong Thing form.
How Much Will the Skins Cost?
While we don’t know the exact prices yet, based on other Marvel team-ups, each character bundle will probably cost around 1,500 V-Bucks. If they make a complete Fantastic Four bundle with all four characters, it’ll probably be around 3,000 to 3,500 V-Bucks. This pricing is normal for a big Marvel collaboration, so start saving up your V-Bucks now if you want the whole team.
The timing is perfect for this crossover. Fortnite is in a superhero season right now, and we just got Superman skins on July 11. Adding the Fantastic Four fits perfectly with what’s happening in the game. Plus, with the new movie coming out, lots of people will be excited about these characters. Epic Games knows how to use movie releases to make great content, and this collaboration should be one of their biggest hits this summer.
When the Fantastic Four skins finally show up in the Item Shop, they’ll probably only be there for a short time. Marvel collaborations usually stick around for about a week, so don’t wait too long to buy them.
