Ride the er… Battle Bus.
As part of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3: Wrecked, things have been pretty metal to say the least, with it only set to get more so as the Masters of Puppets enter the game – and we’ve got how to get the Metallica Fortnite skins explained so you don’t miss out.
You will have to complete some quests in Fortnite Festival if you want to unlock them all, however, so be prepared to jam out.
We’re getting a bunch of content, though, so check out the Fortnite Metallica event update so you’re all up to speed.
We can’t say their introduction has come as much of a surprise, as one of the skins in the battle pass wears a Metallica T-shirt.
But they’re certainly a welcome addition and very theme-appropriate given the post-apocalyptic setting of Wrecked.
However, Nothing Else Matters other than getting those skins – and though Sad but True, we must allow this intro to Fade to Black and get on with it.
How to get Metallica Fortnite skins explained
To get the Metallica Fortnite Skins, you have to purchase the Premium Reward Track for 1,800 V-Bucks as part Fortnite Festival Season 4 Pass and then earn Festival Points to unlock the whole band.
