The latest superhero (antihero?) to descend onto the Fortnite battle royale island has been confirmed, as Epic Games and DC Comics have announced a Black Adam Fortnite skin--in honor of the upcoming film--which will be released October 20.

The Black Adam Fortnite skin will mark the second time a Fortnite skin will bear the likeness of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, who voices the original Fortnite character The Foundation. Johnson was revealed as the leader of The Seven--not to be confused with Homelander's crew--during the Chapter 2 finale event last December.

The skin will also be bundled with at least three other items, as the official Fortnite Twitter posted a picture of the entire Black Adam bundle. Based on that tweet, the Black Adam Fortnite skin will drop with a back bling, pickaxe, and emote, though the official names of those items are not yet known.

Black Adam is also the second superhero-themed skin announced for Fortnite in less than a week, though the preceding skin comes from DC Comics' biggest competition. On October 8, Epic and Marvel released a skin based on X-23, the clone and eventual adopted daughter of Wolverine, into the item shop.

Fortnite is available now for free on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Black Adam will release in theaters on October 21, and The Rock recently said he wants the follow-up to be a Black Adam vs Superman movie.
