Epic Games has unveiled the thrilling "Wanted" Battle Pass for Fortnite's upcoming season, ditching codenames for a direct, action-packed title. Get ready for a heist-themed extravaganza featuring armed villains, gold-laden vans, and explosive bank vaults!

Launching February 21st, the season boasts a crossover with the iconic Mortal Kombat franchise. Sub-Zero himself will be a featured Battle Pass skin, perfectly complementing the season's robbery theme. This collaboration cleverly promotes the upcoming Mortal Kombat 2 film, starring Karl Urban and Adeline Rudolph.

Skins will be available for purchase using V-Bucks, priced at the standard 1,500 V-Bucks each.

Returning favorites include the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. While other weapons remain a mystery, speculation runs wild, with players anticipating the return of the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and perhaps even the Grappler, echoing Chapter 4 Season 4's heist theme.

A game-changing addition is Smart Building, intelligently predicting your construction needs based on aiming direction. The heist theme extends to gameplay with vault breaches replacing keycards. Players will require Meltanite, Fortnite's version of thermite, to crack open the vaults and claim their loot.
