Two new loading screens datamined from Fortnite‘s v4.4 update might give players their first look at the hotly-anticipated Blockbuster skin.

The Blockbuster skin is unlocked by completing full weeks of challenges. No more picking and choosing the easy ones each week—if you want to get this skin, you’re going to have to do the lot. If you complete seven full weeks of challenges, you’ll unlock the skin.

That means that week seven’s challenges are the first that will actually reward players with the skin. Those that have been diligently completing challenges so far will soon be able to get the skin.

Now the Blockbuster skin hasn’t been seen before. But new loading screens, datamined by TwoEpicBuddies on Twitter as always, show a new hero that looks to be Blockbuster. These screens are a reward for completing each week of challenges.

The first loading screen appears to show Blockbuster waking up from some sort of hibernation or stasis chamber. That’s the screen for week seven, so that would make sense. In the second, he appears to be building some kind of rocket or bomb—maybe he’s going to destroy the map?

As always, these are unconfirmed. But all signs point to this being Blockbuster, and that’s pretty exciting for the players who have worked so hard to unlock him.
