Solid Snake Now Available in Fortnite With v28.10 Update
Solid Snake from the Metal Gear franchise is now available in Fortnite.
Fortnite's V28.10 update introduces the iconic character into Epic's widely popular free-to-play battle royale game. Players who own a battle pass subscription will be rewarded with the skin after they complete Snake's quests. Snake is equipped with all his well-known gear, including his iconic cardboard boxes, allowing him to evade enemies.
If you complete all the Page 2 Quests, you’ll unlock Solid Snake’s Old Snake style. (The Quests will remain available until March 8, 2024, at 2 AM ET.)

However, Family Guy creator Seth McFarlane told us Epic apparently "didn't have the budget to create his actual body."
Meanwhile, Epic detailed additional changes coming to Fortnite with the V28.10 update, such as the return of the Anvil Rocket Launcher weapon and some gameplay balance tweaks. Here are the patch notes:
We’ve been closely monitoring Battle Royale gameplay data and community feedback and agreed that some balance adjustments needed to be made. Please see below for a list of balance changes that are included in the v28.10 update:
