The days of mysterious trident teases is over as it can now be revealed that Jason Momoa’s Aquaman will be an unlockable set of skins in the new Battle Pass for Chapter 2, Season 3 of Fortnite, an online multiplayer game. The just released teaser trailer features plenty of shirtless Aquaman bearing a strong resemblance to Jason Momoa’s version from the 2018 film directed by James Wan- Aquaman. Check out what’s included in the new pass as well as how to unlock the two skins, one of Arthur Curry and one of Aquaman in his golden battle armor.
According to Forbes, here’s what’s in the new Battle Pass for Chapter 2, Season 3 of Fortnite:
Fortnite’s map has flooded. Chapter 2, Season 3 kicked off Wednesday morning with a watery bang. What was once an island is now plural—a flotilla of islands rather than just one. The lower elevations have all been submerged, and what we’re left with is something else entirely.
Season 3’s ‘Splash Down’ theme is distinctly summer-themed. Instead of spies we now have ‘Drifters’ and instead of Deadpool we now have Aquaman. For those Fortnite fans who also love Jason Momoa (aka Aquaman aka Khal Drogo), this season of Fortnite is for you.
As always, the new season comes with a new Battle Pass filled with cosmetic goodies that you can purchase for roughly $10—or the premium Battle Pass for 2800 V-Bucks. New Skins, Back Bling, Gliders and more are included. There’s even a brand-new customizable Umbrella this season.
There are plenty of shots of cartoon Aquaman in the Fortnite trailer, shirtless and flexing, showing off his tattoos, and quenching the thirsty.
But, if you’re a serious gamer and actually want to know how to unlock the new Aquaman skins, GameSpot has you covered:
The Aquaman skin, or outfit as Fortnite calls it, is actually available in two different styles. There is the “Aquaman (Arthur Curry)” version and an alternate one simply titled “Aquaman” that puts the otherwise-shirtless superhero into his battle armor. You’ll need to purchase the Season 3 Battle Pass in order to unlock Aquaman either way, but there’s an additional step beyond that to complete. The Arthur Curry style requires that you first unlock and equip the standard Aquaman skin to complete a particular challenge–but to unlock the first skin, you’ll need to do all five Aquaman challenges, only the first of which is available on launch day. In other words, you can’t unlock any Aquaman skins just yet.
Aquaman unlock requirements:
- Aquaman
- Buy Season 3 Battle Pass
- Complete all Aquaman challenges
- Aquaman (Arthur Curry)
- Buy Season 3 Battle Pass
- Challenge: Dive over the waterfall at Gorgeous Gorge while wearing the Aquaman outfit
Aquaman Challenges And Rewards
On Season 3’s launch day, only one Aquaman challenge is available. Based on the in-game clock, we’ll get one new Aquaman challenge each week, with the fifth and final one arriving on Thursday, July 16. Here’s a list of the challenges (the specific requirements for the locked ones are currently unknown) and their rewards:
- Use a whirlpool at the Fortilla — King of the Beach loading screen
- ??? (unlocks June 25) — Trident spray
- ??? (unlocks July 2) — Aquaman’s Trident
- ??? (unlocks July 9) — Supreme Shell
- ??? (unlocks July 16) — unknown reward
