As you advance through the Battle Pass, you will be able to unlock different styles for the Optimus Prime skin. The first style is the character’s unaltered design, while the “Battle Tested” variant has a rougher, more battle-worn appearance due to damage.
Players can now head over to the game and gain access to the Battle Pass. Several new quests are live as well that will help you level up faster and gain Battle Stars to unlock your desired Battle Pass cosmetics.
That’s everything you need to know about unlocking Optimus Prime in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3.
