The world of Fortnite is about to get a golden touch once again. Epic Games has unveiled a tantalizing teaser that the iconic Midas character is making a comeback to the hugely popular online video game.
Through a striking teaser poster shared across social media, Epic confirmed the return of Midas with the simple caption: “Midas returns.” The image has already racked up over 4.7 million views on X (formerly Twitter), showcasing the intense anticipation for this character’s revival.
Midas was last seen during Fortnite’s Chapter 2 Season 2, establishing him as one of the original characters in the game’s evolving storyline and metaverse. With his ability to turn objects into gold with a mere touch, he quickly became a fan favorite.
According to reliable leakers, Midas is scheduled to make his grand re-entry to Fortnite this Tuesday, March 19th. Speculation is rife about how he will be reintroduced into the current Greek mythology-themed Chapter 5 Season 2.

No matter how his return plays out, the comeback of Midas is sure to be a highly anticipated event amongst Fortnite’s massive player base. The king golden touch is preparing to reign once more in the ever-evolving battle royale adventure.
