Female Midas skin in Fortnite

It was rumored that a female variant of the Midas skin would be making its way to Fortnite, and now it has arrived in Season 5. Here’s how you can get your hands on the skin, titled Marigold.

Fortnite veterans will remember when the original Midas skin was introduced in Chapter 2, Season 2. It was based on the mythical king of the same name and became a fan favorite, so there was a ton of hype when a female version of the skin was rumored for Season 5.

The latest update has introduced a ton of exciting crossovers with franchises like Terminator, DC, Predator, and many others. Now, this new skin, titled Marigold, is available with the Golden Touch challenge bundle.

Epic Games have placed the Golden Touch challenge bundle in Fortnite’s in-game Item Shop. Unfortunately, you can’t use V-Bucks to purchase it and will have to spend some real money instead.

The good news is that it’s relatively affordable compared to other bundles in the battle royale. For a total price of $11.99 (£9.99), you’ll be able to unlock the following items:

  • Marigold skin
  • Golden Gambit back bling
  • Golden Daggers pickaxe
  • Golden Touch Challenges

Considering the rewards, this is a pretty good deal so be sure to save up for it!

How to complete the Fortnite Marigold challenges

Tackling the Golden Touch challenges can net you a total of 1,500 V-Bucks. They will appear under the ‘New Challenges’ banner in the lobby. Select it, and make your way to the Special Quests section to see all the challenges and rewards.

First, you’ll have to complete six ‘Uncommon or Rarer Quests’ to earn a reward of 100 V-Bucks. This is fairly straightforward, and you can get this done by viewing your XP Quests and sorting them by rarity.

You’ll have a better chance at completing the ones with lower rarity, since they tend to be much easier. Alternatively, you could also try your luck with any remaining weekly Fortnite challenges.

As soon as more Marigold challenges are revealed, we’ll be sure to update this article with that information.
