Fortnite's Absolute Doom Season Unveiled: New Marvel Characters and Features Incoming
At the D23 event, Epic Games and Marvel officially announced the next Fortnite season, titled Absolute Doom, which introduces new characters like Gwenpool, alongside updated versions of Doctor Doom and others. Collaborations have become a crucial aspect of Fortnite over the past few years, with Epic Games featuring content from various media, including video games, movies, TV shows, and even musical artists.
Before the launch of Chapter 5, Season 4, there were numerous leaks and rumors suggesting the return of Doctor Doom to Fortnite. Leaked information indicated that the Season 4 battle pass would feature a new Doctor Doom skin, following the discovery of a green cape in the LEGO Fortnite game files. The recent D23 announcement confirmed these leaks, revealing that Marvel is once again collaborating with Fortnite for a major in-game event.
Following the conclusion of Season 3's live event, where Pandora's Box was seemingly uncovered beneath Redline Rig, players have been eager to discover who was behind these events. Thanks to the D23 reveal by Marvel's Kevin Feige, Lucasfilm CCO Dave Filoni, and Pixar studio boss Pete Docter, Fortnite's upcoming season is called Absolute Doom. A new trailer shows Doctor Doom harnessing the power of Pandora's Box following the Redline Rig incident. The trailer hints at an epic battle between opposing forces, and the description suggests that players can choose sides.
