Scarlet Witch joins Fortnite as Doctor Strange hits theaters in the Multiverse of Madness

To celebrate Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness’ theatrical release, Fortnite has announced that Scarlet Witch is now available in the game’s item shop.

Scarlet Witch, also known as Wanda Maximoff, joins Doctor Strange, featured as part of Fortnite’s Chapter 3: Season 2 Battle Pass. She also comes complete with a new back bling, a pickaxe, and a loading screen.

More details on Scarlet Witch’s arrival have been revealed by the Fortnite team, including the fact that the Scarlet Witch outfit comes with Wanda’s clock back bling. Both the outfit and the back bling light up with chaos magic when you damage your opponents. If you’re not a fan of the effect, you can always change it by switching to her alternate style.

Her Chaos Hand Ax Pickaxe described as a "tangible construct of magical energy," is available as a separate purchase along with the Psychic Energy Manipulation emote. As always, although these are intended for Scarlet Witch, they can be used with any outfit.

While the items can be purchased individually, fans who want to own them all can purchase the Scarlet Witch Bundle to gain access to all items and the Through the Mirror dimension loading screen.

As previously mentioned, Scarlet Witch is joining Fortnite when Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness hits theaters. For more information, see our Doctor Strange’s Story So Far review and our explainer on the latest MCU film’s post-credits and ending.
