When does Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 begin?

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Countdown

Epic Games has confirmed that Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 will end on August 16, 2024. Based on recent season launches, that means Chapter 5 Season 4 will arrive on the same day after a brief downtime period. With the expected release date and tentative time covered, let's dive into some leaks for the next Fortnite season.

Season 4 will center around Marvel characters

It's no secret that Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 will revolve primarily around Marvel. A recently leaked roadmap has indicated this, and in-game teasers have provided further confirmation. Epic Games remains tight-lipped regarding any details. However, it's worth noting that the leaked roadmap depicts Doctor Doom, so it's likely that this character will be prominently featured.

Chapter 5 Season 4, will mark the second Marvel-centric season in Fortnite history. The other occurred in August 2020 during Chapter 2 Season 4. Based on that season, fans can expect new points of interest (POIs), weapons, and Mythic abilities based on Marvel heroes and villains.

Fortnite leakers have recently revealed what weapons to expect in Season 4. Most notable among them is the Mythic Wolverine claws, which debuted in the previous Marvel season. This weapon was incredibly powerful, granting the user health regeneration, increased speed, and a relentless melee attack. It's safe to assume the Wolverine Claws will return alongside other Marvel items.

Gwenpool skin expected to arrive in Chapter 5 Season 4

Epic Games recently launched a collaboration with Marvel to celebrate the release of Deadpool and Wolverine. This crossover featured a Deadpool and Wolverine Fortnite skin alongside various additional cosmetics. Expanding on this, SamLeakss uncovered assets comparable to Gwenpool, an amalgam of Gwen Stacy and Deadpool. Since Epic Games has not released this skin yet, the assumption is that it will arrive in Chapter 5 Season 4.
