Fortnite Season 4 has just dropped, and with it comes a flood of leaks and updates that were not fully revealed during the initial release. While the downtime for the update lasted longer than expected, we now have an exciting list of what’s coming next in the world of Fortnite. From new collaborations to upcoming events, here’s everything you need to know about Fortnite Season 4.
Fortnite x Ninjago Collaboration
The long-rumored collaboration between Fortnite and Ninjago is finally happening. Confirmed skins include iconic characters like Lord Garmadon, Vex, and Cole, along with other ninjas. This crossover is expected to bring a significant update to the Lego Fortnite universe, adding even more depth to the game’s already expansive crossover content.
The Incredibles and Hot Wheels Arriving Soon
Fortnite is also set to introduce the car from The Incredibles, hinting at the arrival of the beloved superhero family. This addition is expected to roll out within the next couple of weeks, potentially by the next game update. Additionally, a Hot Wheels collaboration is in the works, likely tied to Fortnite’s Rocket Racing mode. This could include themed maps featuring iconic orange tracks and popular Hot Wheels vehicles.
Epic Games CEO on the Apple and Google Dispute
Tim Sweeney, CEO of Epic Games, recently commented on the company’s prolonged legal battle with Apple and Google, claiming they missed out on as much as $1 billion due to the dispute. While this conflict has been a major point of contention, Sweeney’s remarks suggest that Epic is looking to move past it, especially with iOS back in the fold.
Free In-Game Items and Skins
Fortnite players can now claim a free Croissant Back Bling by participating in email surveys. Additionally, the Yus Hammer pickaxe can be unlocked in Fortnite by completing five levels in Fall Guys Mobile. This cross-promotion adds another layer of engagement for fans of both games.
Silk Sonic Skins Removed
Interestingly, the Silk Sonic shop selection, which includes skins of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak, has been fully removed from Fortnite’s API. Despite being slated for a return, the skins never made it back into the game, sparking speculation about potential controversies or issues behind the scenes.
OG Chapter 2 and Upcoming Seasons
Fortnite has officially confirmed the release date for the OG Chapter 2 event, set for November 2nd. Following the current Marvel-themed season, players can look forward to a nostalgic trip back to Chapter 2 before diving into Chapter 6, which promises even more exciting content.
Interactive Season Features
Season 4 is proving to be highly interactive, with features like Stark armor stands, Stark chests, and the Unibeam set to be activated by Week 5. Players will also have the opportunity to choose between heroes and villains, similar to the decision-making mechanics seen in Chapter 2, Season 2.
New Ranked Skin Teasers and Free Skins
A new ranked skin teaser resembling a skeletal version of Lynx has been spotted, possibly tied to upcoming Fortnite Mirrors events. Additionally, a new trailer has been released for Catalina, the free skin for Fortnite iOS mobile players, showcasing more of the game’s expanding cosmetics lineup.
Fortnite Mares and Chapter 5 End Event
Looking ahead, Fortnite Mares is set to bring back several themed items like the Wood Stake Shotgun, Witch Broom, and Pumpkin Launcher. The Chapter 5 end event, codenamed “Quail,” is already in the works, featuring environmental effects like rain, wind, and lightning, hinting at a massive and potentially game-changing event.
Dr. Doom’s Dominance
In a shocking twist, Dr. Doom has seemingly defeated several key Marvel characters, including the Fantastic Four, Thanos, Magneto, and more. These characters now appear as trophies across the Fortnite map, adding a dark narrative twist to the season.
With all these updates, leaks, and collaborations, Fortnite Season 4 is shaping up to be one of the most dynamic seasons yet. Players have a lot to look forward to as the season unfolds, from exciting new skins and crossovers to major in-game events.
