Marvel has been one of Fortnite‘s most consistent recurring collaborations with a plethora of different characters from the comic book juggernaut added to the game. The Marvel Cinematic Universe has seen countless skins and cosmetics added to Fortnite, with Chapter 5 Season 4 adding skins based on Gwenpool, Mysterio, and more. The newest season of the battle royale even added exclusive locations based on Marvel properties, like Castle Doom and Doomstadt coming to Fortnite‘s in-game map.
