The clock is ticking on Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 3, and the next chapter is already on the horizon. Here’s what we know so far about Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 4, including its release date, leaked content, and potential gameplay changes!
A Marvel-ous Return?
While official details are scarce, leaks suggest a brand new Marvel season is upon us! This means iconic locations and items straight out of the Marvel universe could be making a comeback. Imagine swinging through the map with Spider-Man’s Web Shooters once again!
The rumor mill goes even further, hinting at a Deadpool and Wolverine collaboration. This could include a revamped Wolverine Claws item and possibly even movie-inspired reskins of past Marvel character outfits.
Dr. Doom Headlines the Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass
While the details are still scarce, we do know that Dr. Doom will be a featured skin in the upcoming Battle Pass. This isn’t the iconic villain’s first appearance in Fortnite, having previously been both a Battle Pass reward and an NPC. His codename, “AnglePatch,” suggests he’ll once again play a pivotal role in the season’s storyline.
Rumors of a Deadpool and Wolverine crossover have also surfaced, thanks to reported meetings between the actors and Fortnite content creators. However, it’s more likely this will be a separate collaboration rather than part of the Battle Pass.
The Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass will cost the standard 950 V-Bucks. As always, players can earn V-Bucks through gameplay or purchase them directly.
Live Event: The Countdown Begins
The appearance of Stark Industries beacons has reignited speculation about a renewed Marvel collaboration. Considering Iron Man’s involvement in a similar past event, it’s plausible that new heroes or villains from the comic book universe will play a significant role.
However, the most striking development is the construction of a massive pipeline leading to Megalo Don’s Leviathan ship. With Redline Rig, the game’s nitro production hub, located nearby, it’s clear that Epic Games is preparing for a colossal event involving the ship.
Recent leaks suggest an animated gauge will soon appear on the pipeline, acting as a countdown to the season-ending live event. The ship is expected to be fully fueled and ready to wreak havoc on the island, potentially reshaping the map for Chapter 5 Season 4.
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Release Date
Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 is scheduled to arrive on Friday, August 16, 2024. This intel comes straight from the in-game Battle Pass timer. Expect a period of downtime after Season 3 wraps up on August 15th (11 PM PT / 2 AM ET / 7 AM BST on August 16th).
While these leaks offer a glimpse into what awaits us, the full picture of Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 remains a mystery. Until then, enjoy exploring the Wasteland and prepare for the superhero showdown coming in August!
