Move over, Poison Ivy, your one-week reign as Fortnite's thirst trap is over, as an NPC has taken your spot.
Epic Games has, for the most part, kept its characters in check over the past eight years. From Peely the banana and Jonesy to crossovers John Wick and Harry Potter, the battle bus divers have mainly been PG.
The Fortnite attire guidelines look to have been eased in the summer of 2026, as a chiselled set of abs and a tight set on Speedos have left nothing to the imagination for Bruce Wayne, and Poison Ivy's tiny vine-wrap bikini is equally as fleshy.
In fact, Fortnite has gone all Marvel Rivals on us this summer with a struing of skimpy suits that have left gamers in a 'gooner' era.

Yet even with the new Batman characters donning poolside outfits, it's actually a different Gotham girl who is attracting Fortnite's freakier fans, as Catwoman is pulling off her best Lady Dimitrescu impression.
Typical of a collaboration event like this, Batman and his Arkham-evading heroes have popped up as enemy NPCs, akin to the Star Wars events with Darth Vader.
Both Catwoman and a suited-and-booted Batman can be found around the Fortnite battle royale map to be fought and eliminated, offering up juicy rewards to take on the rest of the map's assailants.
Boasting a mythic weapon, Catwoman especially has been hot on the minds of Fortnite's fans, yet its not her explosive arsenal that is making a lasting impression.
Squared up alongside Batman, Catwoman is a huge NPC, and with a black leather summer-ish outfit of her own, players are losing their minds.
Taking to Reddit, players have become obsessed by the dominating stance of Seline, and are getting 'jealous' of Bruce's bedtime business.
"Definitely don’t mind them being taller," one popular comment read, comparing her to Game of Thrones' Brienne of Tarth.
Another added, "Catmommy?"
A third person said, "I mean they had to compete with Marvel Rivals somehow."
The Reddit thread specifically has been dominated by fruity gifs jam-packed with inuendo, as Catwoman's overbraring stature has attracted a lot of questionable antics.

Canon-wise, this is a step away from Batman lore as Seline is notably around five foot, seven inches, while Bruce Wayne towers above six foot, and a little extra with his pointy ears.
Yet in Fortnite, NPCs are always pack-a-punched in size, and Catwoman seems to have been put through the juice machine twice.
Located on the edge of the beach, southwest of the Wonkeeland POI, Catwoman is there to either be hired as an NPC companion, or duelled for a chance to take her mythic weapon.
With a rapid-fire SMG and even a chance of a Batman Sprite - a reward that sits on the opposite end of the size scale - she's quite a popular choice as an early combatant.
That is, if you can bare to eliminate her, rather than gawping.
