Remember when Metropolis' hero descended onto the Fortnite island? 🦸♂️💥 Back in July 2024, Epic Games launched an electrifying collaboration with DC Studios to celebrate the global theatrical release of "Superman," featuring David Corenswet's now-iconic portrayal. The crossover wasn't just another skin drop—it was a full-blown superhero experience that had players racing to unlock Kryptonian glory through the Chapter 6 Season 3 Battle Pass.
The Path to Becoming Superman
To wield the Man of Steel's power, players needed two things: the Chapter 6 Season 3 Battle Pass (priced at 1,000 V-Bucks or via Fortnite Crew subscription) and sheer determination. From July 11 onward, grinding 12 account levels was mandatory—no shortcuts, no carry-overs. Whether you were level 5 or 505, those fresh levels were your ticket to Kal-El’s suit.

Even without the Battle Pass, four Superman-themed treasures awaited all players:

The Ultimate 24-Level Reward Marathon
Completing the full Superman set required conquering 24 levels, unlocking 12 exclusive items packed with Easter eggs:
| Reward | Unlock Level | Special Feature |
|---|---|---|
| Superman Skin | 12 | One-arm flying animation |
| Daily Flight Glider | 15 | Unique "lift" grip (no handlebars!) |
| Pen & Ink Style | 18 | Designed by DC CCO Jim Lee |
| Cape Physics Mod | 24 | Dynamic cloth simulation |
Epic nailed the details: Superman didn’t just plummet from the Battle Bus—he soared with one fist forward like a crimson comet. That Daily Flight Glider? Pure magic. Instead of clinging to handles, he lifted it with telekinetic elegance. And Jim Lee’s Pen & Ink variant? A stroke of genius that merged comic-book legacy with polygon perfection.
Why This Collab Still Soars 🌠
Even a year later, spotting a Superman skin in the lobby hits different. The collaboration stood out by weaving gameplay mechanics into superhero fantasy—no other skin lets you replicate that iconic flight stance mid-drop. While Chapter 6 Season 3 is long gone, those who grinded those 24 levels still flex the rarest Jim Lee-designed styles in 2025 lobbies.
In a landscape where crossovers come and go, Fortnite’s 2024 Superman event proved heroes can indeed save the day—and your locker’s prestige. ✨
