Godzilla is coming to Fortnite in Chapter 6 Season 1, ready to stomp on everything (and look extremely weird wearing Kicks while doing so).
Compared to previous seasonal skins, like Solid Snake, Geralt of Rivia, and Wolverine, Godzilla’s intimidating frame doesn’t quite transpose to a vaguely humanoid frame. But the character’s signature chonkiness (Fortnite’s Godzilla is based on the Godzilla x Kong iteration) will show up at some point both as a skin and on the map in Chapter 6 Season 1.
Here’s what we know about Godzilla’s arrival in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1.
When is Godzilla coming to Fortnite?
Godzilla will be added to Fortnite, both as part of battle royale matches and as a skin, on Friday, Feb. 17 at the following release times:
- 6 a.m. PST for the west coast of North America
- 9 a.m. EST for the east coast of North America
- 2 p.m. GMT for the U.K.
- 3 p.m. CET for west mainland Europe
- 11 p.m. JST for Japan
- 1 a.m. AEDT on Sat. Dec. 7 for the east coast of Australia
Until then, as part of an update on Jan. 14, Godzilla’s arrival is being teased with a series of Godzilla Quests, pointing players to a number of themed updates across the map — including footprints, Monarch secrets in the likes of new location Kappa Kappa Factory, and the destruction of the suspension bridge to the east of the map — which is now named Shattered Span.
Then, on Friday at the above times, Godzilla is set appear on the map as part of a “transformation mythic”, allowing players to become Godzilla and use various abilities, according to a leak by HYPEX on X.
This is also when the Godzilla skin and associated cosmetics will be unlocked for battle pass holders, alongside a new set of Godzilla Quests to complete.
