How to Get the New Deadpool Skin in Fortnite Season 2
Epic Games has finally launched Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2 and to the surprise of players, Deadpool himself has been included as one of the Battle Pass skins. Here's how to get it.
The last major game update was centered around the gold theme, but on February 20 - when the v12.00 patch was released - a slogan appeared, under which the whole second season - Top secret.
While fans will hope the patch changes aren't completely secret since they haven't been available for quite some time, the two trailers for the new season have actually been pretty revealing due to the lack of official patch notes. One of the surprises was the new skin of Deadpool, a popular character from the Marvel comics series.
A closer look at Deadpool in Fortnite
There has already been a crossover between Fortnite and Marvel in the past, with The Avengers making its way into the Battle Royale game in Season 10, and now Deadpool has also been added to Epic Games' extensive collection of skins.
Skin took many members of the gaming community by surprise, and HYPEX insider showed off the skin shortly after the update was released to the game, as shown below. Anyway, let's see how you can get your hands on this outfit.

Where to Find Deadpool's Secret Room?
After clicking on the fan and accessing the computer in Deadpool's secret hideout, you will see a list of challenges on the screen. These will be updated as the season goes on, and once they're completed, presumably players will be rewarded with a skin.
Deadpool Week 1 Challenge Reward
Completing these themed quests appears to allow players to unlock a range of Marvel-inspired rewards, as seen in this banner in Week 1 of the Deadpool Challenges.
Deadpool Week 2 Rewards and Challenges
In the second week we have two quests:
- Find Deadpool's Milk Carton
- Find Chimichangi Deadpool
Deadpool Milk Carton
The milk carton can be found at the top of the urinal in Deadpool's small office.
Chimichangi Deadpool
Chimichangas are scattered across different menus in the Battle Pass section of your menu.
Maya Enhancement Repository
You can find the Chimichanga in the storage next to Maya. It will be on the shelf to her right.
Agents
Go to the Agents area and click on the Big Guy option and you will be taken to his office. You can find the chimichanga on the table on the right.
Main menu
You can find it right below the large round table that sits in the center of the menu. It's to the right of Dean Mitta's little propane tank!
Deadpool Week 3 Rewards and Challenges
In the third week we also have two trials:
- Find Plunger Deadpool
- Destroy Toilets
Plunger Deadpool
Deadpool's plunger can be found in the agent area by visiting Agent Dean Mitta!
Destroy toilets (3)
Toilets can be found in large houses in the game. Places like Holly Fences or Pleasant Park are good places to look for them. Not every house has them, so head to the big houses to find bathrooms!
Deadpool Week 4 Rewards and Challenges
- Find Deadpool's Katanas
- Deal damage to enemy buildings
Deadpool katana
You can find Deadpool's Katanas in the Battle Pass menu! The first one can be found right in Deadpool's lair, the sword sticking out in the broken mirror above the computer. Looks like Deadpool got a little upset about the Fortnite game he was playing! The second one can be found in the Maya Agent's Vault, to the left of it.
Deal damage to enemy structures (10)
There is nothing special about this challenge, you just have to destroy a lot of structures built by your opponent. I would recommend heading into a Team Rumble and possibly grabbing some explosive items to effectively destroy the structures that have been built all over the circle area!
Deadpool Week 5 Rewards and Challenges
Find Deadpool's unicorn Deadpool
Visit different steel bridges in the color of the rainbow
Where to find Unicorn Deadpool
A stuffed unicorn will be found in the new Agent Meowscule room that was added in update v12.20 .
After you've entered Meowscull's gym, you should see a unicorn to his right, near his feet.
How to hug a rainbow by visiting steel bridges
You may not have noticed them before if you weren't looking for them, but each of the steel bridges on the Fortnite Chapter 2 map is painted with unique colors.
Epic used them in other challenges as well, requiring you to dance on them or draw graffiti.
To complete the Deadpool Challenge in Week 5, you need to visit all five of them to "Hug the Rainbow". Here is the location of the bridges on the map.
Steel bridges on Fortnite island
Deadpool Week 6 Rewards and Challenges
Where to find Deadpool's big black marker
How to Ruin Ghost or Shadow Posters
Where to find Deadpool's big black marker
Deadpool's large black marker will be located at the agents' headquarters, namely at the Agent Big Man. It lies on the table next to the computer.
How to Ruin Ghost or Shadow Posters
When you have the Big Black Marker, you need to deface 3 Ghost or Shadow posters. You can find 3 in Fatal Farm, in the locations described below. The location is located northeast of the center of the map.
Deadpool Week 7 Rewards and Challenges
- Find Deadpool's Pistols
Enter a phone booth or a secret passage to become a super superhero
Where to find Deadpool's pistols
Like most of the items he needs to find, Deadpool's guns will be in the headquarters, but in different locations. The first one is under the table in the main briefing room:
You will then find the second pistol in the Meowscull's Gym, right on the floor to its right.
Enter a phone booth or a secret passage to become a super superhero
Finally, you have one more weird task to complete before you get the skin.
You will either need to enter a phone booth or a secret passage to complete this challenge, which is incredibly easy. Although there are points and passages all over the map, the best place to do this is the Agency, where you will see both options.
New challenges for the Deadpool skin style are expected to be released during Week 8, though this has yet to be confirmed.
We will continue to update this article with more information, both leaked and confirmed, over time.
