Iron Spider Fortnite skin: First look and release date

For the first time since 2020, Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 underwent a comprehensive Marvel transformation.

Furthermore, rumors suggest that the Iron Spider version of Spider-Man will soon join the game. Here’s what you should know!

Iron Spider Fortnite skin: Release date and first look

At first, the Iron Spider Fortnite skin was unveiled by SpushFNBR, offering a distinctive take on the character and several other decorative items. Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) might remember the Iron Spider armor from Spider-Man: Homecoming, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame.

Even though the Fortnite version of Iron Spider doesn’t look like Tom Holland, it stays true to his comic-book design. If you want to get your hands on the Iron Spider Outfit, mark your calendars for August 24th; that’s when it’s expected to be released.

From the provided image, it seems that the collection encompasses a Backpack Ornament (Back Bling), Skin Decoration (Wrap), Pickaxe, embedded Emote, Guitar, and possibly a Glider as well.

What is the origin of this Spider-Man suit?

The Iron Spider suit first emerged in issue #529 of the Amazing Spider-Man comic book, donned by Peter Parker. Similar to its portrayal in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Tony Stark offers this suit to Peter as a means to bolster backing for the Superhero Registration Act. The Iron Spider suit has since been featured across various media platforms, including Spider-Man video games and television programs. It seems appropriate that the Iron Spider suit should be added to the collection of Spider-Man skins in Fortnite.

As the Marvel-themed Chapter 5 Season 4 continues to captivate players, you’ll find an abundance of Marvel-inspired character skins throughout the season ahead. To kick things off, I recommend checking out the Battle Pass where you can acquire several skins by spending 950 V-Bucks.
