Epic Games has unveiled the thrilling new Battle Pass for Fortnite's upcoming season, officially titled "Wanted." Forget codenames; this season dives straight into high-stakes heists! Expect a cast of armed villains, gold-laden getaway vehicles, and explosive bank vaults – all the hallmarks of a pulse-pounding robbery.

Kicking off February 21st, "Wanted" features a crossover with the iconic Mortal Kombat franchise. Sub-Zero himself joins the Battle Pass, perfectly complementing the season's heist theme.

This collaboration cleverly promotes Mortal Kombat 2, the upcoming film starring Karl Urban and Adeline Rudolph.

Skins will be available for purchase using V-Bucks, priced at the standard 1,500 V-Bucks per character.

Returning favorites include the Flare Gun, C4, and the Diplomat turret. While other weapons remain a mystery, speculation runs wild, with players anticipating the return of the EMP Grenade, classic SMGs, the Tommy Gun, and even the Grappler from previous heist-themed seasons (like Chapter 4 Season 4). These are currently unconfirmed, however.

A game-changing addition is Smart Building, intelligently predicting your construction needs based on your aiming direction.

The heist theme extends to gameplay with a revamped vault-breaching system. Keycards are out; Meltanite (Fortnite's version of thermite) is in! Players will need to use Meltanite to crack open vaults and claim their loot.
