Fortnite Solid Snake Release Date, Metal Gear Update

In our Fortnite Solid Snake Release Date, Metal Gear Update guide, we are going to talk about when Solid Snake is coming to Fortnite, as well as which Metal Gear-themed cosmetic items you’ll be able to earn. Fans have been excited about this ever since dataminers discovered that gaming’s most famous sneaky spy is coming to Fortnite, and the time is almost upon us. So, let’s get right into it!

When is Solid Snake Coming to Fortnite

According to the in-game countdown, the release of Solid Snake in Fortnite is going to be January 23rd, 2023, which means he’s coming some fifty days after after Chapter 5 Season 1 begins. Which would make sense, because the 23rd of January is a Tuesday, which is when Fortnite updates often drop. You’ll then be able to earn all that stuff until March 8th, barring any unforeseen circumstances. Naturally, all of the Metal Gear-themed items will be rewards in the battle pass. We don’t know which levels they will be on, so that remains to be seen. Speaking of the themed items, let’s cover what you’ll be able to earn.

While not much is known 100% officially, we’re pretty confident that the list below is complete. We’re talking three different variations of the Solid Snake skin and new looks for your glider, backpack, pickaxe and wrap. Of course, you’ll also unlock other rewards for moving through the battle pass, but we’re only focusing on the Metal Gear stuff here. I’d imagine the rest will be the usual fare. With all of that said, here’s the list.
