Now the very title of the event suggests that Midas might be about to get a whole lot stronger as the event goes on, so watch this space. At the moment he is good for a new gun and health fix but that can’t be his only purpose surely?

When was Midas in Fortnite?

Midas originally appeared waaay back in time when he appeared as a boss in Chapter 2 Season 2 more than four years ago on February 20th, 2020. Yep, that was about a month before the pandemic truly kicked in worldwide, so let’s hope this guy is not a bad omen.
