Fortnite fans, get ready for an exciting new season! At a recent event, it was announced that Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, launching on August 16, will feature a Marvel theme titled “Absolute Doom.” This highly anticipated season will showcase a battle pass packed with Marvel character skins, including a unique twist on Peely named Peelverine.
The latest trailer revealed the complete battle pass, highlighting new gameplay features. Players can expect to unlock a variety of Marvel-inspired skins as they progress, including Gwenpool (an instant unlock), War Machine, Emma Frost, Shuri, Mysterio, Peelverine, and Captain Jonesy. Doctor Doom will serve as the mid-season unlock, reminiscent of Magneto from the previous season.
Additionally, players will gain access to exciting new Marvel powers, which include Shuri’s claws, War Machine’s weapon rig, Iron Man’s energy blasts and flight, Captain America’s Shield, and Doctor Doom’s gauntlets. Interestingly, no mention was made of the Fantastic Four in the announcement.
In addition to the Marvel surprises, the event unveiled several skins inspired by classic Disney villains, including Cruella DeVille, Captain Hook, and Maleficent, set for a fall release that could tie into Fortnitemares in October. Fans can also look forward to Fortnite’s inaugural Pixar skins featuring characters from The Incredibles.
Lastly, while the previous battle pass may no longer be accessible, players will soon see new skins for IG-11 and Moff Gideon added to the item shop on August 12, along with a chance to snag Grogu back bling for those who missed out before. Stay tuned for these exciting updates as Fortnite embraces its vibrant collaborations!
