The next season of Fortnite begins on August 16 and will bring Gwenpool, Doctor Doom, and more Marvel characters into the game.
This weekend at D23, Disney announced several collaborations with Fortnite maker Epic Games. The biggest of these is Infinite Doom, the title of the next Fortnite season. It will be completely Marvel-themed, with characters like Doctor Doom and War Machine added as playable characters.
The first trailer for Fortnite: Infinite Doom dropped over the weekend, showing the villainous Doctor Doom wreaking havoc on Battle Royale Island. We also see Captain America Jonesey, Mysterio, Peelvirine, and Gwenpool.
The trailer also introduces a new POI, Doom’s Castle, where we see players duking it out with standard weapons as well as special Marvel items. This includes Captain America’s shield and Iron Man’s repulsors, both of which return from previous seasons. There’s also a new Doctor Doom weapon that allows players to fire a concentrated blast of energy at their enemies.
Fortnite: Infinite Doom will be released on August 16, 2024. It will be the second Marvel-themed Fortnite season, following Fortnite: Nexus War in 2020. For more Fortnite news, stay tuned to Shacknews.
