The high-octane Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Absolute Doom trailer begins with Doctor Doom unlocking Pandora's box and harnessing the power of Nitro and its ancient magic within. The powers within Pandora's box essentially turn Doctor Doom into a nearly unstoppable force to be reckoned with.
The very next shot depicts Captain Jonesy eliminating opponents, introducing the Marvel-themed protagonists to the island. Captain Jonesy wields the signature shield, which is set to play a major part in the season's gameplay.
Right after, it pans to the Prison, one of the new named locations coming as part of the new season. The large structure with its menacing display is sure to hide some secrets and is set to become a fan-favorite hotspot for players to get their hands on all the items and consumables in Fortnite Chapter 3.
The trailer also briefly features a chopper circling the structure, possibly hinting at the return of the beloved Choppa to the game.
Doctor Doom is seen infiltrating the prison and setting Mysterio free, confirming him as one of the other villains in Chapter 5 Season 4. The trailer also hints at Mysterio's powers of decoy supposedly making their way to the game, according to the easter eggs in the trailer.
Next, the trailer shows the arrival of a legion of Marvel superheroes to the island, including Cyclops, Colossus, Rogue, and others. Right after, players are introduced to Peelverine, one of the most-awaited Peely variants in Fortnite.
The following shot depicts Doctor Doom's castle, one of the other named locations making its way to the new Chapter 5 Season 4 map. The character is seen erecting the castle, with Mysterio and other villains by his side. Doom's castle along with the Prison are going to be two major POIs that will be introduced in the new map.
After that, Fortnite teases the host of weapons, Mythics, and special features coming as part of the new season. These are the Marvel-themed weapons spotted in the trailer:
- Cap's Shield (chained melee damage and bullet protection)
- Shuri's blade (Slash damage)
- Gwenpool (flight, meteoric splash damage)
- Twin-Mag SMG
Perhaps one of the most exciting sections of the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Absolute Doom trailer is the return of mechs, as seen in War Machine's suit. It is capable of flight as well as dealing precise and targeted damage to opponents. As such, it could be a game-changer in the upcoming season and its gameplay.
The trailer ends with a teaser of Doctor Doom's power in the form of a charged glove that deals heavy electric splash damage. Marvel's superheroes are seen fighting it right before the teaser ends with the key art of the new season.
This is everything we know from the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Absolute Doom trailer and all the upcoming features that will be added in-game. This new season heralds a Marvel-themed plot and confirms Doctor Doom's arrival on the island.
