Fortnite: A Deadpool Outfit Is Now Up for Grabs for Battle Pass Owners
You only need to complete a single challenge to unlock it.
As spotted by The Verge, Deadpool has officially made his way to Fortnite: Battle Royale, and Fortnite’s official website has the details.
Players who have purchased the Chapter 2 - Season 2 Battle Pass can unlock the Deadpool Outfit by completing the Week 7 Challenge that asks them to find two of Deadpool’s “Akimbo Pistols.” Even if you haven’t completed any of the previous Deadpool challenges, you can still unlock the Deadpool Outfit by finding the two weapons.
However, as of this writing, some of the “Deadpool Week 7 Challenges” aren’t showing up for everyone. The official Fortnite Status Twitter account has announced the problem and says the team is “investigation issues” with the Challenges.

Finally, in addition to this new outift, Fortnite players can collect Deadpool’s Meaty Mallets and his Dragacorn Glider.
This Deadpool crossover isn’t the first time a popular character or brand has made an appearance in Fortnite. Previous crossovers have focused on themes like The Avengers and Borderlands. While Fortnite is rated T for Teen, keep in mind that some of these crossovers (including this Deadpool one) have featured content from games and films that are rated “M for Mature" and "R," respectively. In addition, the Battle Pass is a completely optional part of Fortnite, and kids/teens don’t have to buy it to play the game.
