Fortnite's big v36.20 update is finally here, with the second major update of Chapter 6 Season 3 set to be live soon for all players on all platforms.
This season has seen a big focus on superheroes, with Superman having led the pack earlier in the season, but Epic Games is switching it up with some more Marvel characters. That's not to say Superman's time under the yellow sun is over, though — there's a bit more for the Man of Steel in this update, too.

With the game files updated and players about to jump in to a new update, we've put together this handy guide covering what are expected to be the biggest changes and additions in Fortnite v36.20.
Fortnite 36.20: Fantastic Four Skins
To coincide with the upcoming release of The Fantastic Four: First Steps later this month, Fortnite will be adding a few new skins for at least three of the four — Reed Richards, Susan Storm, and Johnny Storm will all reportedly be receiving new skins. It's unclear at this point if the final of the Fantastic Four, Ben Grimm aka The Thing, will also be getting a new skin in the game, but according to dataminers it doesn't look like there's any data for him. These skins will be released before the next update to the game, most likely alongside the launch of the film on July 25, 2025.
Fortnite 36.20: Fortress of Solitude
As mentioned earlier, Superman is still getting his time in the sun, as the Fortress of Solitude is set to be added to the game in v36.20. This is said to be coming alongside a host of Superman-related quests, and Superman himself is likely to make an appearance in the fortress, so there'll be plenty of Supes-related goodness for fans to check out.
Fortnite 36.20: Deadmau5 Skin
Fortnite has become a bastion of celebrity status, with over a dozen musical performers and stars having skins within the game. It makes sense, then, that Deadmau5 may be joining the crew, with dataminers saying there's an encrypted skin that looks to be Deadmau5 in the game's files. We don't know for sure if or when the electronic music producer will make his entrance, but usually when there's smoke, there's fire with these types of things, so keep on the lookout.
Fortnite 36.20: New Skins
Alongside licensed skins for the Fantastic Four and Deadmau5, a host of skins original to Fortnite are set to make an appearance in this update, too. Among them is a man with metallic, silver skin – though it doesn't seem to be the Silver Surfer – as well as a slime girl composed of Slurp and a humanoid creature made of wires with a controller for a head. Weird, but probably not the weirdest thing Fortnite has seen.
Fortnite 36.20: New Lego Fortnite Odyssey Updates
Lego Fortnite Odyssey is getting a bit of an update, too, with new enemies from Lego Fortnite Expeditions set to be appearing in the game mode. Daigo's minions will be making an appearance in Lego Fortnite Odyssey now that the Spires are activated, so players will have to watch out for that while working on their villages.
