Fortnite Dragon Ball skin guide: how to get the iconic outfits

As part of the new Fortnite Dragon Ball crossover, players now have access to a variety of characters from the manga. Here's how to get them.

The latest Fortnite crossover introduces iconic Dragon Ball characters, with a slew of new in-game events that reference the show and manga. While there’s a boatload of Dragon Ball-related content as part of the crossover, the most notable inclusions are the cosmetics and skins, which highlight a wide variety of characters from the series.

But which characters and cosmetics are available now, and how do you acquire them?

Here’s what you need to know about the initial batch of Dragon Ball skins in Fortnite.

To acquire the various Dragon Ball skins, you’ll have to purchase them from the Item Shop. While there are in-game challenges that reward players with certain Dragon Ball cosmetics, the only way to get your hands on the characters themselves is to buy them with V-bucks.

Remember, V-bucks are unlocked via the seasonal battle pass and can be purchased with real money, too. So, hopefully, you have plenty of extra V-bucks lying around from a previous battle pass. Otherwise, you’ll have to spend your hard-earned cash to get your hands on the latest Dragon Ball characters.

In terms of the skins themselves, you’ll have the ability to buy Goku, Vegeta, Bulma, and Beerus, with plenty of cosmetics that accompany each. All the characters are available individually or as part of bundles, so make sure to take a look at everything first before making your purchase.

Below are the cosmetics available as of August 16, 2022.

The entire game has gotten a Dragon Ball makeover, with various quests, in-game events, and other cosmetics to earn, so be sure to take part in everything Fortnite currently has to offer so you don’t miss out on earning some goodies.

This is part of a lengthy Dragon Ball crossover, coinciding with the new Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero film.

Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.

Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.

Gaming laptops and I have a complicated relationship. One of my first gaming rigs was an Acer Predator that was already outdated when I bought it. I was a broke college kid, and that was the best I could afford. So trying out high-end gaming laptops is always fun. But ASUS' ROG Zephyrus G14 is a lot more than a laptop that can run AAA games. It is portable, so you're not lugging around a 2.5kg machine everywhere you go. It is built well, none of that plastic chassis, and can even function as a normal laptop outside of just gaming.

Google Play is borrowing one of the Nintendo Switch’s most useful little tricks. A new Sidekick tool called Playbacks captures a short clip after something interesting has already happened, sparing players from running a screen recorder throughout an entire game.

Playbacks is part of Google Play Store v53.8 and keeps saved clips on the phone. Google first announced it earlier this month, but the new Play Store update marks its arrival for players. Anyone who has watched a perfect win vanish because the record button came too late already understands the appeal.
