The sequel to Nickelodeon's critically-acclaimed animated series, Avatar: The Last Airbender, the epic story of The Legend of Korra, set 70 years following the conclusion of Avatar, follows the journey of Avatar Korra, a 17-year-old girl striving to live up to the legacy of her predecessor Avatar Aang, while using her mastery of all four elements to confront political and spiritual unrest in a modernizing world.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2's special skin is Korra - from the titular character from Avatar: The Legend of Korra. Getting the Korra skin in Fortnite will also unlock the Korra Lego Style in Lego Fortnite.
According to the amount of days listed in its Battle Pass countdown, the Korra skin will be released on Saturday 6th April. It's important to note that special skins have a history of being released earlier than the amount of days listed in this countdown, so Korra might be available sooner than you think. Namely the Tuesday of that week - Tuesday 2nd April.
At the time of writing, we don't know the exact release time for Korra, but she will most likely become available at the same update time used throughout Fortnite, which is when the daily challenges reset.
This release time is:
UK - 2pm (GMT)
Europe - 3pm (CET)
East Coast US - 9am (EST)
West Coast US - 6pm (PST)
