For weeks, it has been speculated that superheroes would have a huge role to play in the upcoming season, and these rumours have now been proven true, with the official Fortnite Twitter handle tweeting a glimpse at the Marvel-themed season:

With superheroes expected to play a vital role in Season 4's Battle Pass, apart from Thor, data miners have also revealed some more exciting set of leaks regarding other potential superhero skins.

With Marvel being the central crossover, expect a whole lot of exciting new skins to make their way in-game.

In fact, the Marvel hype is so much that even Epic Games Creative Director Donald Mustard changed his Twitter header to resemble a comic strip featuring Iron Man and Dr. Doom:

Soon after Thor was confirmed for Chapter 2 Season 4, data miners have also revealed that Groot from Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy will be a part of Season 4's Battle Pass:

Apart from one of Marvel's most delightful characters, fans will also have access to the fearsome Storm from X-Men skin:

In addition to this, HYPEX also revealed that Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 4 will be based on the Marvel comics and not the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The season will be in tune with the essence of the original Marvel comic book versions of popular heroes.

Also, for all those fans who have recently been complaining that Fortnite seems to have lost hold of its original storyline, Donald Mustard tweeted something very promising:

With this latest set of developments, the possibilities are endless as to which route Fortnite ends up taking. With a whole new set of exciting superhero skins up for grabs, the upcoming Marvel-themed season has certainly begun to look a lot more promising.

Moreover, it will certainly be interesting to see how the Marvel crossover, indeed, ties in with the original Fortnite storyline, as hinted by Donald Mustard.
