Chapter 4 Season 1 heralds a new timeline for Fortnite Battle Royale. The title has undergone massive changes and has received many features that will surely enhance the gameplay. The new season also comes bearing a fresh Battle Pass.

Keeping up with its predecessors, the new Battle Pass still relies on the Battle Star system but now sports a different layout. While players who have purchased a Battle Pass can claim a profusion of cosmetic items, those who haven't will still get to claim a handful of items.

In addition to cosmetic items like back bling, pick axe, and loading screens, players can also claim 300 V-Bucks for free.

For the uninitiated, V-Bucks is a currency that facilitates micro-transactions within the game. Players can only purchase V-Bucks within the game and from verified Epic Games channels.

The latest Battle Pass

Now that Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 1 is live, the latest Battle Pass is no mystery. Epic Games has once again collaborated with best-selling video game franchises and has brought to the timeline iconic characters like Doom Slayer and Geralt of Rivia.

Players can also expect to see All Might and Deku from My Hero Academia. Fortnite developers have certainly gaged the popularity of anime among players. The My Hero Academia crossover will join the short but promising list of anime franchises that Epic Games has collaborated with.

Based on the trailer & Fortnite leaks for Chapter 4 Season 1, players might soon see the Incredible Hulk run amok across the island. However, the developers are yet to share any information about the character's arrival.
