Epic Games has just revealed the first look at Fortnite’s version of Ant-Man, although if you weren’t looking closely enough, there’s a good chance that you missed it completely. The game’s Twitter account shared a teaser indicating that another Marvel skin was coming and hid Ant-Man in the image for players to find before his arrival. This provocation aligns very well with the emergence of a new portal and previous references to Ant-Man that suggested that he would arrive soon.
The image below can be one that Fifteen days players remember the beginning of 2020, when the Deadpool and X-Force skins reached Fifteen days. It shows Domino, Cable and Psylocke in that order, but there is another character hidden in the image if you look at Cable’s arms.
Over the seasons, many Marvel heroes and villains have arrived on the island. But it looks like we forgot one.

Like many players pointed for others who didn’t notice the provocation in the X-Force image, this is definitely Ant-Man sitting on Cable’s arm just below his elbow. It will certainly be a normal size when added to the game, but it is a smart provocation to hint at its arrival. It looks like he is wearing the classic outfit that people expect him to be in when it is added, but it is difficult to distinguish the details given his little presence in the teaser.
Although Ant-Man made his first Fifteen days The appearance and the tweet including its image directly mentioned Marvel characters, players already suspected that it would be added to the game below. Even before its portal officially appeared in the game, the portal was discovered in the game files codenamed “SmallFry”, which immediately evoked thoughts about Ant-Man. The Marvel section of the game’s Item Shop has also recently been updated in an apparent effort to prepare for the arrival of a new skin or the return of a Marvel skin. Based on the portal and the latest teaser that appears in the game, it looks like it will be the first whenever Ant-Man is officially added.
It probably won’t be long before Ant-Man is officially in the game, since Fortnite’s teasers generally follow defined patterns and move quickly once started. It can be added as early as this weekend, although Epic Games will notify players when it is available for purchase.
After Ant-Man is added, we still have a lot of skins that we would like to see before the start of season 6 or some time later.
