Fortnite Wolverine skin: How to unlock Wolverine and the Classic Wolverine variant by completing weekly challenges explained

How to play as the mutant Wolverine in Fortnite.

Wolverine is the special hero skin that you can earn in Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 4.

Just like Deadpool and Aquaman, the Wolverine skin, and it's associated rewards, is unlocked by completing a set of special Wolverine challenges, which you'll gradually unlock throughout the season. You even have the chance to unlock the Classic Wolverine variant.

Wolverine joins fellow mutants, Storm and Mystique, as Marvel skins that you can unlock as part of the Fortnite Season 4 Battle Pass.


Note this particular challenge is no longer able to be completed. What's new? Chapter 4 Season 2 has arrived! New additions include the Grind Rails and Kinetic Blades, along with the new Battle Pass, character collection and Eren Jaeger skin. It's a good idea to know how to get XP fast in Fortnite.

How to get Wolverine by completing weekly challenges in Fortnite

If you want to unlock the Wolverine skin in Fortnite, then you must first buy the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 4 Battle Pass. If you don't purchase this Battle Pass, then you won't be able to earn the majority of the Battle Pass rewards and this includes Wolverine!

After purchasing the Battle Pass, you'll need to complete a series of weekly challenges to unlock both the Wolverine skin and a variety of Wolverine themed rewards. Each week a new challenge will unlock and you'll need to complete each one, until you earn the ultimate prize.

Once you've unlocked the Wolverine skin, you can also unlock the Classic Wolverine variant.

Don't worry about starting the Wolverine challenges late either, because each one will be available from the moment it's unlocked to the end of the season.

How to find the Wolverine weekly challenges in Fortnite

Unlike the other Marvel heroes, such as She-Hulk and Iron Man, Wolverine is not unlocked by progressing through the Fortnite Season 4 Battle Pass.

Instead, you'll have to complete a series of weekly challenges that will gradually become available throughout Season 4 of Fortnite.

These challenges can be found by selecting the Wolverine Challenges option from the main Battle Pass menu.

This will bring you to an overview of all the Wolverine related rewards, along with the challenges you need to complete to receive each one.

You can also find the Wolverine challenges by visiting the Map Challenges list; here, alongside the weekly challenges, you'll be able to quickly read any Wolverine challenges that you need to complete.

Challenge Seven:

  • Damage (200) with Wolverine's Claws

To complete this challenge you will need to defeat Wolverine again to collect his claws. Once you've done this, equip his claws, hunt down a player and start causing some damage!

Completing this challenge will reward you with the Weapon X emoticon.

Challenge Eight:

  • Regain health (100) as Wolverine

You can easily achieve this by playing in Team Rumble mode, taking damage and then using one of the many healing items in Fortnite. We recommend Team Rumble, because it allows you to continue playing once you've died and keep your items, so there's less risk if you just want to complete this challenge.

Completing this challenge will reward you with the Wolverine banner.


Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 is here! It brings a free Lego Insider skin and redemption codes with it, along with a new Victory Umbrella. We've also got pages on new features like Medallions, Weapon Mods, and how to complete a Train Heist. Meanwhile, learn what the best weapons are in the current season, how to get XP fast, and what the best PC settings are to help earn a Victory Crown.


How to unlock the Classic variant for Wolverine in Fortnite

After you've unlocked the Wolverine skin in Fortnite, you can work towards unlocking the Classic variant, which is a version of his original costume.

To do this, you'll first need to unlock the Wolverine skin by completing the first six Wolverine challenges.

Once you've achieved this, you need to complete 10 challenges across both the Week 5 and Week 6 weekly challenge lists. This doesn't mean that you've got to complete all of the challenges from both weeks, instead you have the ability to pick and choose the challenges you wish to complete.

When you reach the total of 10 completed challenges, the Classic variant for Wolverine will unlock, much like any other Battle Pass reward.

Just remember - you must unlock the first Wolverine skin to earn the Classic variant!
