Whats the style for this Fortnite season?
While Epic hasnt exactly told gamers whats going on, the comics that have actually been launched look like quite clear tips that a Marvel Comics crossover occasion will supply the primary theme for the season. The in-game preview comics have shown Thor showing up on the Fortnite island and entering into a massive brawl with a few of the games most recognizable characters.
What does this mean for the brand-new season?
With Lady Sif, Thor, and Galactus all perhaps hanging out in Fortnite this season, there might be some huge and abrupt map changes while these gods battle it out across the island. On top of that, we can most likely expect some brand-new PvE aspects and new places right when the season begins– at least based on other seasons.

How does any of this fit in with the Thor comics?
In the most current run of Thor comics started with a new # 1 in January of this year and is written by Donny Cates, drawn by Nic Klein, and colored by Matt Wilson. In it, the god of thunder ends up being King of Asgard, then becomes Galactus Herald in order to avoid the end of the universe.
Apparently, according to Galactus, a wicked force called the Black Winter is pertaining to destroy the universe, and the only way it can be saved is if Galactus takes in numerous particular worlds. Thor accompanies him in order to leave each planet prior to Galactus eats it. Its somewhere around here, a planet or 2 into Galactus multi-planet buffet, where the Fortnite season and comic appear to be set– which appears to be about issue # 4 of the comic run.
Will other Marvel character appear throughout this season?
While we still cant say for sure which heroes from the Marvel universe will make their method to Fortnite, we ought to understand more once the season launches on Aug. 27, and there are sure to be a couple of surprises during the season.
As of Tuesday, Aug. 25– two days before the season begins– we have a few excellent tips. Without providing anything away from the real Thor comic series (well have spoilers on that later on if you desire to read them), Thor has come to the Fortnite island to alert the residents that Galactus, the Devourer of Worlds is on his way, but something about the island makes Thor lose his memory. He briefly fights some of Fortnites the majority of renowned characters, then Galactus gets here, running Thors memory of his true function. Just as Galactus shows up, Thor sends a message to Lady Sif back on Asgard asking for her assistance, so shes most likely on the way to Fortnite.
Its somewhere around here, a world or two into Galactus multi-planet buffet, where the Fortnite season and comic appear to be set– which appears to be about issue # 4 of the comic run.
Problem # 7 of the series isnt out yet, however the cover and description both recommend that more Marvel heroes could be on their way into the story. The cover includes the Mjolnir, along with the hands of numerous characters, like Iron Man, completing to grab it. Problem # 7 isnt set to release till Sept. 16 which would mean that other heroes will reveal up later on … or possibly not.
While the comics didnt include excessive of the remainder of the Marvel universe till issue # 5, things began to get fascinating after that. In problem # 6, Thor gets a vision from Black Winter, which can show mortals their own death, in which a number of iconic Marvel character had actually ended up being zombies– which would definitely produce an exciting Fortnite Halloween occasion if season 4 lasts that long.
