As soon as Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 3 was revealed to have a crossover with the Fallout franchise, we all knew it had to include the Power Armor. Now that the season is out, we can confirm that there are not just one, but three different versions of the iconic metal suit to wear, but it may not be quite what you hoped.

Instead of being something you can find and use on the map to become an unstoppable killing machine in like the source material, the Power Armor you can get in Fortnite is just a set of skins. Even if it is just a skin, it looks intimidating, so why not add it to your collection? Here’s what it takes to unlock each version.

How to get the Power Armor skin in Fortnite

Because the sets of Power Armor are skins, they need to be unlocked through the battle pass and can’t be purchased as of now. The three versions are different-colored variants of the T-60 Power Armor and unlock at different tiers. Here’s what level you need to grind to in order to get them all.

  • T-60 Power Armor: The default gray Power Armor is the first version you can unlock by reaching level 54 and earning nine battle stars on the battle pass.
  • Hot Rod T-60 Power Armor: This flaming-red version of the armor also requires nine battle stars and grinding up to level 62.
  • Black Knight T-60 Power Armor: The black and bloody version with glowing red eyes is the most unique, but also the hardest to get. You need to first earn all other battle pass rewards, earn 20 battle stars, and claim all the bonus rewards on page one to unlock it.

Madden has been available on phones for years, but its mobile versions have never offered the same depth as the main console games. EA is now bringing a more substantial version to Apple Arcade through Madden NFL 27 Arcade Edition, which launches on August 6.

As per EA, the game focuses on full NFL seasons, franchise management, and 11-on-11 matches. Players can manage trades, free agency, and roster changes before taking their team through the regular season and playoffs. Quick Play is also included for anyone who wants to skip the management side and start an exhibition match.

GameNative is making it much easier for Android players to commit one of PC gaming’s oldest crimes against storage space. Its v1.1.1 pre-release adds Nexus Mods integration, cutting out much of the file shuffling usually required to get PC game mods running on a phone.

According to GameNative’s official release notes, users can sign in to a Nexus account and download mods through the app. Downloads can be paused and resumed too, so losing your connection shouldn’t force you back to the beginning.
