Marvel x Fortnite is a common place for the iconic Battle Royale, and it seems that with every new update, more Marvel skins join the fight. This time around, the Mutants take the stage, and the iconic X-Men of Cyclops, Colossus, and Jubilee enter into Fortnite for players to add to their lockers and compile an impressive library of X-Men characters to enjoy in the multitude of metaverse content available within Fortnite.

Fortnite: How to Get Wolverine
The legendary Marvel Mutant has clawed his way to Fortnite more than once, and here's how to get all of Wolverine's outfits.
With the three famous X-Men members arriving in Fortnite, players might want to know just how they can grab each of these characters, and how many V-Bucks it will set them back to acquire them and the bonus gear that they come with to bring forth some of the best Marvel skins in Fortnite.
For those asking where the X-Men skins went, it's most likely that Fortnite accidentally released them earlier than expected, and they should return around August 12 at 8 PM ET.
How to Get the X-Men Bundle
Players can head to the Item Shop on August 9, 8 PM ET to acquire the X-Men Bundle. This bundle will cost players 3,800 V-Bucks, which is an absolute steal considering it comes with 3 skins and a total of 15 items, including an exclusive wrap called Cyclops Flair, which is adorned in blue and yellow X-Men colors. Firing this wrap will see a purple beam adorn the barrel of the weapon. If players were to purchase these items separately, they're looking at a huge cost of 6,300 V-Bucks, so the X-Men Bundle is a must-have for the devoted X-Men fans out there. For those curious, the X-Men Bundle comes with the following items:
Item Name | Item Type |
Cyclops | Outfit |
LEGO Cyclops | LEGO Style |
X-Pack | Back Bling |
Op-Pick-Tal Blast Axe | Pickaxe |
Optic Blast! | Emote |
Cyclops Flair | Wrap |
Colossus | Outfit |
LEGO Colossus | LEGO Style |
Osmium Shield | Back Bling |
Colossal Hammer | Pickaxe |
Sentinel Squats | Emote |
Jubilee | Outfit |
LEGO Jubilee | LEGO Style |
Jubilee's Blades | Back Bling |
Lumikinetic Bat | Pickaxe |
The X-Men Bundle is set to be removed from the Item Shop on 20 August at 8 PM ET.
How to Get Cyclops in Fortnite
Cyclops is purchasable separately from the X-Men Bundle for 2,000 V-Bucks. The team leader of the X-Men, and one of its original members, comes with his classic Jim Lee look, adorned with mac and cheese colors and belts that perfectly encapsulate the iconic look that thankfully didn't stay in the 90s. Purchasing Cyclops will not only see players receive the skin, but they will also receive a few goodies alongside Scott Summers, like a Cyclops LEGO Outfit Style to use in LEGO Fortnite modes.
Players will also receive the X-Pack, a Back Bling featuring Cyclops' favorite colors, and the Op-Pick-Tal Blast Axe, which is a Pickaxe that acts as a concentrated concussive beam in the palm of your hands. Lastly, to fit the aesthetic of Cyclops, players will receive the Optic Blast! emote, which unleashes the power of Cyclops. Just beware of the length of the optic blast, as it might draw unwanted attention like a flare.
Cyclops is set to be removed from the Item Shop on 20 August at 8 PM ET.
How to Get Colossus in Fortnite
The X-Men's very own steel-covered powerhouse also joins his fellow X-Men. Colossus can be purchased outside of the X-Men Bundle from the Item Shop for 2,000 V-Bucks. Colossus is one of the larger character models in the game, and his appearance is straight out of the Marvel comic pages. With his entire body encased in steel, Colossus is going to add layers of protection, although it's purely cosmetic and offers no actual advantage when getting shot at. Purchasing Colossus will also see players obtain a cute Colossus LEGO Outfit Style and some other items.
Colossus' Back Bling comes with purchasing him, and it's called the Osmium Shield. Colossus also receives a Pickaxe at no extra charge called the Colossal Hammer. Perhaps the best addition to Colossus' items is the Sentinel Squats Emote, which is a Traversal Emote that sees the character squat around the map whilst holding a hefty detached arm of a Sentinel.
Colossus is set to be removed from the Item Shop on 20 August at 8 PM ET.
How to Get Jubilee in Fortnite
The explosive and vibrant Jubilee also makes her way to Fortnite, and she can be purchased separately from the other X-Men skins and the X-Men Bundle by visiting the Item Shop. Jubilee will be cheaper than the other X-Men skins, and will only cost 1,500 V-Bucks. However, that is because one of her items comes separately. When purchasing Jubilee, players will receive a Jubilee LEGO Outfit Style and Jubilee's Blades as a Back Bling.
If players want to purchase Jubilee's Pickaxe, the Lumikinetic Bat, then they will need to spend 800 V-Bucks, as it is separate from her bundle of items.
Jubilee is set to be removed from the Item Shop on 20 August at 8 PM ET.
