Midsummer Midas skin in Fortnite was first added in Chapter 2 Season 7 with the update v17.10 on June 24, 2021. Midsummer Midas is a direct snapshot of the original Midas from Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 2. It is largely unclear why he came back to the island amid an ongoing alien invasion, but he was a sight for sore eyes. Given his cult-like following in the community, players were thrilled to see a new version of the character introduced to the game.

Much like the original Midas, Midsummer Midas has the "Golden Touch" ability as well. Certain weapons and items that the character uses and/or picks up in-game will turn to solid gold. Sadly, the ability will not work in LEGO mode. Nevertheless, you can still use Midsummer Midas to explore new LEGO Fortnite seeds as he has his own LEGO Outfit.

That said, here is how to get Midsummer Midas skin in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3.
