How to get Deadpool by completing weekly challenges in Fortnite

If you want to unlock the Deadpool skin in Fortnite, then you must first buy the Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2 Battle Pass. Without that you won't be able to take full advantage of the Battle Pass or gain the ability to unlock Deadpool.

Battle Pass in hand you now need to complete a series of weekly challenges to unlock the Deadpool skin. Each week contains different challenges and, unlike your typical Fortnite challenges, you have to complete the Deadpool challenges in a specific order.

This means that you must complete the first challenge, 'Find Deadpool's letter to Epic Games' for example, before you can complete the second challenge, which might be 'Don't thank the bus driver.'

For every challenge set you complete, you'll earn a special Deadpool themed reward. This included a Deadpool inspired weapon wrap and banner, among many others.

Don't worry if you're starting the Deadpool challenges late; the challenges will continue to unlock as you complete them, until you're up-to-date.

Complete enough of these challenges and you'll evenutally unlock the Deadpool skin.

How to find the Deadpool weekly challenges in Fortnite

Unlike the other new Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2 skins, like Maya, Deadpool is unlocked by progressing through the Battle Pass.

Instead, you need to complete a set of challenges each week, which will then allow you to unlock Deadpool at a later point in this season.

Before you do this, however, you need to find Deadpool's Fortnite hideout, so that you can learn what the challenges are. To do this head to the Battle Pass section in the main menu.

There you'll find a Deadpool symbol above a vent - click on it to enter Deadpool's hideout.

Once you're in there, click on the computer to view the current weekly challenges you need to complete to unlock the Deadpool skin.

Don't be worried by the fact that you only have one challenge available - the second will appear once you've completed the first.

Where to find Deadpool's letter to Epic Games in Fortnite

The first challenge you need to complete on your road to unlocking the Deadpool skin is finding, and reading, the letter Deadpool sent to Epic Games.

This is a very easy task to complete, but you don't even need to play any Fortnite to complete it.

Simply leave the computer screen that displays the Deadpool challenges and, on the floor of Deadpool's hideout, you'll find the letter.

Select the letter to give it a read and then return to the computer screen to discover what the next challenge is.

Good luck completeing the rest of the Deadpool challenges!
