This season of content is introducing a whole host of new locations, powers, and equipment. The new places will see players explore Doctor Doom’s Domain, the Sentinel Graveyard, and other Marvel-centric locales. With regards to powers, players will harness that which resides in the likes of Doctor Doom’s Arcane Gauntlets and Silver Surfer’s Board. According to a PlayStation Blog post, such special items will arrive sometime “later in the season.”
A new invention from Stark Labs–Stark Industries Assault Rifle–is also making its way into the Fortnite arsenal. Apparently, this particular weapon proves so versatile that the benefits it offers is contingent on how players aim.
With a new season comes a brand-new Battle Pass offering that boasts a total of 100 unlockable rewards. Some of those rewards will allow players to unlock the following heroes and villains: Doctor Doom, Groot, Iron Man, Mystique, She-Hulk, Storm, Thor, and Wolverine. Each character features their own “special quest,” which, upon completion, activates their Awakening–“a built-in Emote.”
See the Battle Pass trailer in the following video:
