Here’s how and when you can unlock the Ares Fortnite skin!

The Greek Mythology "God of War," known as Ares, is one of the newest characters to drop into Fortnite. However, unlike Zeus, Aphrodite, Medusa, and others, Ares only appears in-game as a boss but not in the Chapter 5 Season 2 Battle Pass. Instead, Ares will join the infinite list of Fortnite skins through the Fortnite Crew subscription service later this month. Here's everything you need to know!

How and when to unlock the Ares Fortnite skin

Epic Games confirmed in the Chapter 5 Season 2 blog post that Ares would become a Fortnite skin via the Fortnite Crew April 2024 collection. The subscription debuted in 2020 and has introduced various unique and exclusive cosmetic items to the game. Additionally, players who enroll receive additional V-Bucks and the seasonal Battle Pass.

It is unclear what will be included in the Fortnite Crew April 2024 bundle. Regardless, Epic Games has given us a look at Ares in-game since he is a boss character.

Based on recent months, the latest Crew offering should be available on March 31. We'll have to wait and see what other cosmetics will appear in the Fortnite Crew pack, but you can expect a Back Bling, Pickaxe, and Wrap.

How to subscribe to Fortnite Crew and what's included

If the Ares Fortnite skin sounds interesting, your next step is to subscribe to the Fortnite Crew membership. This service gives you access to each exclusive monthly cosmetic set, 1,000 V-Bucks, the seasonal Battle Pass, and sometimes additional perks. Your subscription will renew automatically each month until you decide to cancel it.

No commitment is necessary, and you can terminate the subscription anytime. Fortnite Crew may be worth it, especially if you enjoy rotating your skin selection while playing the game. You can join the service via the Fortnite website or in-game.
