Fortnite has been on another superhero kick lately. Hot off the heels of Superman and Gamora comes the amazonian Wonder Woman.
Two versions of the Wonder Woman skin will be available on August 19th, alongside the Golden Eagle Wings Glider, Athena’s Battleaxe, the DC Trinity Loading Screen, and two versions of Diana’s Mantle Back Bling.

Wonder Woman has been a comics icon for over 80 years, so it's no surprise she's landed on Fortnite's island. A lot of players are going to want to deck their characters in her gear. So how do they get it?
As always, the Wonder Woman skin and related accessories will be available in the item shop for a limited time. Epic Games has not confirmed the price yet, but it's a safe bet to assume it'll be similarly priced to the Superman skin: 1800 V-Bucks.
A player can decide to pay upfront, or they can try to earn the necessary V-Bucks by completing Fortnite's battle pass challenges. But if they don't want to spend V-bucks, there's a way to earn it for free.
Unlike the Free Man skin, there's currently no mini-game or specific questline tied to Wonder Woman's skin. The requirements to earn it for free are much more straightforward. Unfortunately, they are much more restrictive as well. Players have to compete in the Wonder Woman Cup.
On August 18th, a day before her official public release, Fortnite will host a competition that will let players earn the Wonder Woman skin early. The wonder woman cup is meant for 2 man teams, so Fornite players should practice their duo survival strategies.
Over the course of 3 hours, teams will play up to 10 matches, and earn points based on their standings. According to Epic Games: "The top performing teams in each region will receive the Wonder Woman Outfit and Diana’s Mantle Back Bling." The point distribution is as follows:
Victory Royale: 42 Points2nd: 36 Points3rd: 32 Points4th: 30 Points5th: 29 Points6th: 28 Points7th: 27 Points8th: 26 Points9th: 25 Points10th: 24 Points11th: 23 Points12th: 22 Points13th: 21 Points14th: 20 Points15th: 19 Points16th: 18 Points17th: 17 Points18th: 16 Points19th: 15 Points20th: 14 Points21st: 13 Points22nd: 12 Points23rd: 11 Points24th: 10 Points25th-29th: 9 Points30th-34th: 6 Points35th-39th: 3 Points40th-44th: 2 Points45th-50th: 1 PointEach Elimination: 1 Point
Even if a player is doubtful of their ability to win, it's still in their interest to compete. Every player who earns more than 8 points will earn the Honorary Amazons Loading Screen.
Fortnite is currently available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
