How to Get Ascendant Midas for Free in Fortnite
A few lucky fans can get Ascendant Midas for free in Fortnite.
Epic Games finally resurrected Midas, the legendary Chapter 2 NPC, in Fortnite Myths & Mortals. After he escaped from his cell in The Underworld, Midas now inhabits The Marigold Yacht, where he offers players a Mythic Drum Gun. Although the character arrived in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 in update 29.01, his new skin was not featured in the Item Shop. Fortunately, just one week later, Ascendant Midas is available for all fans, and some can even get him without spending any V-Bucks.
Here's how to get Ascendant Midas for free in Fortnite.
