Fortnite developer Epic Games has revealed new details about Chapter 5, Season 4, titled Absolute Doom. The new Fortnite season kicks off on the morning of August 16. While we typically wouldn’t see the Battle Pass skins and trailer until the season’s launch, Epic revealed the new content during an overnight stream as part of the Disney D23 event. Likewise, we also got a look at Doctor Doom during the end of season live event. As you can see from the image above and the trailer further down the page, Season 4 brings Marvel characters back to Battle Royale. The Battle Pass begins with Gwenpool, who will be unlocked at tier one.
Other unlockable Battle Pass skins include War Machine and Peelverine, the latter of which is a Wolverine variant of Peely.
That’s on top of Emma Frost, Shuri and Mysterio, as well as a Captain America version of Jonesy, named Captain Jonesy.
According to Fortnite insiders such as Shiina and Hypex, Doctor Doom will be available as a secret skin later in the season.
New points of interest include Doom Castle, as well as a Prison. The Train will also make a return, while a Galactus landmark was spotted by eagle-eyed viewers of the trailer.
Various weapons will also be introduced in the season, as well as one or two returning favourites.
There’s Captain America’s Shield, Peelyverine’s Claws and Gwenpool’s Blades, as well as Shuri’s Mythics, Iron Man’s Gloves and the Stark Industries Energy Rifle. War Machine’s Jetpack and Turret will also be included.
Other new weapons include Dual SMGs, a new version of the Sniper Rifle, a new Single-Hand Pistol, the Silent Scar and Heavy AR.
In addition to new Battle Pass skins and Marvel points of interest, the D23 stream also shed some light on upcoming Disney skins.
The entire line-up of The Fantastic Four will join Fortnite later this season, alongside Sabertooth Meowscles and Fishpool.
Disney Villains such as Cruella, Captain Hook and Maleficent, alongside The Mandalorian antagonist Moff Gideon.
Speaking of The Mandalorian, fans can also expect to see the deadly IG-11 Bounty Hunter droid from the same series.
That’s on top of characters from The Incredibles, including Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl and Frozone.
