How to unlock The Dark Knight Relaxes

This loading screen is earned through the Hot Bat Summer event content rather than being a straight purchase for the screen alone. The steps below walk through claiming it.

Launch Fortnite and confirm you are on the current Chapter 7 Season 3 build. The Gotham City Summer set only appears while this season’s Hot Bat Summer content is live.
Open the Quests or Challenges tab and locate the Hot Bat Summer (Gotham City Summer) objectives. The loading screen is tied to this challenge line, so track the milestone it is attached to.
Complete the required objective. Once the game registers it, The Dark Knight Relaxes is added to your account without any extra confirmation prompt needed.

Note: The set also includes other Gotham City Summer cosmetics such as Beach Bod Batman, High Tide Harley, Coastal Catwoman, and Ace the Bat-Hound. Working through the same event content is how those pieces are collected as well.

How to confirm it unlocked

To verify the unlock, open the Locker and switch to the loading screen category. Search for The Dark Knight Relaxes and check that it no longer shows as locked. When it appears with its icon and the “More refreshing than a Lazarus Pit.” description, you can equip it, and it is confirmed on your account.

Why it may not appear yet

If the loading screen is missing from your Locker, the most common reasons are simple to check.

  • The linked Hot Bat Summer objective has not been finished yet. Return to the challenge and complete the exact milestone it is attached to.
  • Your game has not updated to the current Chapter 7 Season 3 build, so the Gotham City Summer content is not active for you.
  • Progress has not synced. Fully close and relaunch Fortnite, then reopen the Locker to refresh your cosmetics list.

Once the tied objective is done and your locker refreshes, The Dark Knight Relaxes stays permanently on your account, letting you set the poolside Gotham City scene as your loading screen whenever you like.
