The Black Manta skin in Fortnite was introduced in Chapter 2 Season 3, with the update v13.20. The character can best be described as the archenemy of Aquaman, first appearing in 1967, and more recently in Aquaman (2018). Armed to the teeth with ground-breaking technology, this supervillain is capable of going toe-to-toe with worthy adversaries.

Given his legacy, it's no surprise that Black Manta has a dedicated LEGO Style. You can use the character to explore LEGO Fortnite Odyssey seeds. With the amount of water biomes present in LEGO realities, there will be no shortage of adventures. Just be careful when dealing with enemies in the wild as you won't have access to Black Manta's arsenal of weapons.

That said, here is how to get Black Manta skin in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1.
