Fortnite Gets a Heroic New Skin: Matt Damon’s Odysseus

Fresh from his epic journey home after the Trojan War, Matt Damon’s Odysseus is set to ride the battle bus into Fortnite. The hero of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey will land in Epic Games’ battle royale item shop tomorrow, Thursday, July 16, following the game’s next big update.

The update is packed with exciting new content, including England legend David Beckham, as well as a slew of Batman characters in swimsuits. Epic Games has shown off footage of Odysseus’ skin in action, and it’s clear that it’s based on the likeness of Matt Damon.

The Odyssey Comes to Fortnite

The new skin is just one part of a massive update that’s set to bring a host of new content to Fortnite. Fans of the game will be able to get their hands on a range of new items, including the highly anticipated Odysseus skin.

But that’s not all – Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR has also posted an image of a second The Odyssey skin, that of the hulking Agamemnon, played by Benny Safdie in the movie. Both skins are set to drop on July 16, and fans are eagerly awaiting their chance to get their hands on them.

How to Get Your Hands on Odysseus

So, how can you get your hands on Matt Damon’s Odysseus skin? Well, Epic Games has announced that there will be a typical in-game tournament to try and win the skin for free. However, for the vast majority of players, a low-ranking entry in the tournament will at least award them an Odyssey-themed loading screen.

It’s worth noting that the tournament is just one way to get your hands on the skin. Fans can also purchase it from the item shop using V-Bucks.

The Odyssey: A Film Worth Watching

For those who may not be aware, The Odyssey is a film directed by Christopher Nolan, and it’s set to hit theaters on July 17, 2026. The film features a star-studded cast, including Matt Damon as Odysseus, and it’s been described as a ‘game-changer’ for the world of cinema.

According to Nolan, the film was crafted to ‘do away’ with ‘cultural prejudices’ about the ancient world. It will also feature an enormous practical Cyclops, which is sure to be a highlight of the film.
