Mastering BriteStar Marvel in Fortnite: Guided by Sam Wilson, the Captain America

The highly anticipated Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 is here, bringing exciting new additions to the battle royale game. Among these are the BriteStar and Sam Wilson Captain America cosmetics, which have quickly become fan favorites. One skin, in particular, pays homage to a Marvel comics character that shares a similar name, adding a clever reference to the game.

If these new skins have reignited your interest in Fortnite, be sure to check out our Fortnite tips and tricks breakdown to gain the upper hand. You have the option to purchase Sam Wilson Captain America and BriteStar separately or take advantage of a bundled offer containing both.

The bundle is priced at 2,600 Fortnite V-Bucks, while the standalone Captain America skin costs 2,000 V-Bucks and the BriteStar skin is priced at 1,800 V-Bucks. Additionally, when you purchase the bundle, you’ll receive an exclusive loading screen, showcased below. Each Fortnite skin also comes with its own set of accessories, which are listed below for your convenience.

Fortnite Sam Wilson Captain America includes:

• Cap’s Shield BackBling
• EXO-7 Falcon Wings Glider
• Cap’s Shield Harvesting Tool

Fortnite BriteStar includes:

• Brite’s Shield BackBling
• Brite’s Shield Harvesting Tool

Although the exact duration of availability for these Fortnite skins in the item shop is unclear, Marvel has stated that the Sam Wilson Captain America set will only be available for a “limited time.”

While it hasn’t been officially confirmed, the original Fortnite BriteStar character skin seems to draw inspiration from Marvel Comics’ Bright Star, a variation of Captain America that has yet to appear in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Although the connection is not confirmed, the resemblances between BriteStar and Bright Star, along with their Captain America influences, are quite noticeable.
