The two main stars of the new Captain America movie look like they’re getting their own skins, alongside a new one for Superman.

With a new Marvel movie scheduled to arrive in cinemas in just a couple of weeks, there is one thing you can almost guarantee will come out of it and that’s another Fortnite crossover.

The battle royale has been inundated with Marvel themed character skins since 2019 and after Disney invested $1.5 billion into Epic Games last year you can bet that’s not going to stop.

As always, details on new skins appear to have leaked online first, with a new rumour claiming to know of two new Marvel skins that are coming to Fortnite as well as one from DC.

The leak reveals that the two Marvel skins will be for Falcon and the Red Hulk, which is perfectly believable since those two characters are the main stars of Captain America: Brave New World.

This comes courtesy of insider Nick ‘Shpeshal’ Baker, who has accurately predicted Fortnite skins in the past, such as the Doom Slayer and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

It was the seconded by prominent Fortnite dataminer ShiinaBR on X, who has backe dup Baker’s claims.

While the rumour lists Falcon as one of the skins, it’s presumably referring to the new Captain America, aka Sam Wilson, who took up the mantle in the Disney+ show The Falcon And The Winter Soldier. His old role of Falcon has been passed onto a new character, who will also appear in Brave New World.

There aren’t any leaked images of the skins (yet), but that’s certainly what ShiinaBR is implying, based on the accompanying images they shared of Red Hulk and the Sam Wilson Captain America, who keeps the shield but also boasts a wingsuit so he can still fly.

Presumably, both skins will become available in Fortnite around the time of Brave New World’s release, which is scheduled for February 15.

As for the new DC skin, Baker claims it will be Superman. That may sound odd since Superman was already added to Fortnite back in 2021, but it’s likely meant to be the version of the character that’s set to appear in this year’s movie reboot from James Gunn.

ShiinaBR claims they’ve heard about the Superman skin too, but they haven’t been able to confirm it. It seems like a safe bet, though, considering DC has also loaned plenty of its characters to Fortnite.

If so, this new Superman skin probably won’t arrive for several more months, since the movie isn’t slated until July. Aside from being yet another reboot, this Superman movie will also serve as the first film in DC’s new cinematic universe.
