Today,Fortniteannounced that the Deathstroke Zero skin and other cosmetics will be available for purchase in the in-game shop starting June 1. However, if fans want to get their hands on the skin early, anyone with an account level 30 or above can compete in the Deathstroke Zero Cup on May 27 for the chance to earn Deathstroke Zero and Deathstroke’s Katanas which act as either a Pickaxe or Back Bling.
Deathstroke made his first appearance inThe New Teen Titansissue #2 back in 1980. Since then, the villain, also known as Slade, has been cemented as a nemesis of the fictional superhero group for years. While fans areexcited to see Deathstroke appearinFortniteas well as potentiallyBatman/Fortnite: Zero Point, the skin’s reveal has sparked debate among fans who believe that the character has never been depicted with a visible nose.
