Fortnite: How to get OG Black Widow skin
Epic GamesThe Black Widow skin has returned to Fortnite for the first time since 2019, giving players another chance to get hold of the outfit from Chapter 1 Season 8. Here’s how to get the OG Black Widow skin in Fortnite.
Fortnite is one of the most successful games on the market, thanks in no small part to the many crossovers the devs have pulled off over the years. These range from one-off releases like Invincible or Eminem, to long-running collaborations like the many Star Wars events.
Back in 2019’s Chapter 1 Season 8, Fortnite crossed over with Marvel for an entire season to bring a Battle Pass full of Avengers-themed skins as well as extra characters to the store. Among these was Black Widow, who has made a return as part of Season OG.
Here’s how to get the OG Black Widow skin in Fortnite.
How to get Black Widow skin in Fortnite
The OG Black Widow skin can be purchased from the Fortnite store for 1,500 V-Bucks. Unfortunately, there is no way to earn the classic superhero outfit by completing challenges, but you can use any leftover V-Bucks earned from the Battle Pass to help soften the blow.
On top of the Fortnite Black Widow skin, the bundle also includes the Widow’s Pack Back Bling and an additional style that changes her hair to blonde, inspired by Scarlett Johansson’s look in Avengers: Infinity War from 2018.
The Widow’s Pirouette Emote has also returned to the store, but this must be bought separately for 200 V-Bucks. Meanwhile, the Widow’s Bite Pickaxe hasn’t been added back to the game with the rest of the items.
It isn’t clear how long the OG Black WIdow skin will stick around in Fortnite, but with The Big Bang live event taking place on December 2, and Chapter 5 kicking off soon after, players will likely have to act fast if they want to add this iconic outfit to their collection.
