Why would Fortnite’s Midas rob banks when everything he touches turns to gold?
God forbid a guy has a hobby, right!?


With Fortnite Chapter Six, season two, coming on Friday, Epic Games dropped a rap video-style trailer offering a snippet of what to expect.

Midas first arrived on the Fortnite scene in Chapter Two as a charismatic villain cursed with a golden touch that ultimately killed his daughter, Jules. Despite resurrecting her, their relationship was never quite the same, which is understandable, to be honest.
