Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 4 ā€œAbsolute Doomā€ will start on Aug. 16, 2024. As trailers suggest, this next season will be focused on Marvel characters and introduce plenty of new skins to the game.

New Skins in Fortnite ā€˜Absolute Doomā€™

Some of the new skins that will join Fortnite with Absolute Doom are the following:

  • Captain Jonesy
  • Doctor Doom
  • Emma Frost
  • Gwenpool
  • Mysterio
  • Peelverine
  • Shuri
  • War Machine

As youā€™d expect there will be a Doctor Doom skin too, but this wonā€™t be earned through the Battle Pass, instead you can get it by completing missions when they go live in September. There will also be more Marvel skins released via the store as the season proceeds, so there will be no shortage of Superhero fun.

Thatā€™s not all though, there will be other Disney skins coming to the game outside of the Marvel universe. Some of these are from The Incredibles universe, and there could be even more. These additions come after Disney invested $1.5 billion dollars into Epic Games, so donā€™t expect to see the collaborations end anytime soon.

Weapons in Fortnite ā€˜Absolute Doomā€™

Leakers have confirmed some of the weapons that will be available during Fortnite ā€˜Absolute Doomā€™. Hereā€™s a look at the ones that have been revealed so far:

  • Dual Micro SMGs
  • Captain Americaā€™s Shield
  • War Machineā€™s Arsenal
  • Shuri Mythic
  • Iron Manā€™s Repulsor
  • Doctor Doom Mythic

The exact time for Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 4 to go live hasnā€™t yet been revealed, but fans can expect to have their chance to hop in on the action on Aug. 16, 2024.
