Fortnite’s Leaked Marvel Skins Could Finalize a Character’s Collection

In the vast landscape of Fortnite’s skin options, those with Marvel themes have become a staple that players can’t seem to get enough of. It’s no surprise, then, that a recent leak hints at the addition of more Marvel characters. Among these, one particular skin might indicate a significant bet the gaming world is placing on this character’s popularity.

According to the rumored Fortnite x Marvel Rivals collaboration, well-known Fortnite leaker ShiinaBR leaked images showcasing a Marvel Rivals-themed avatar and glider inspired by Galacta. While Marvel Rivals confirmed the Galacta-themed glider, they haven’t yet confirmed a skin for another character — Doom 2099. However, should these rumors pan out, it’s possible that Doom 2099 could soon make an appearance in Fortnite.

Now, let’s dive deeper into this narrative.

### Significant Spotlight on Doom 2099

Doctor Doom is already a familiar face in Fortnite, having been a pivotal villain back in Chapter 5: Season 4. His quest for power began with opening Pandora’s Box and creating a new empire, the Kingdom of Doom, alongside allies like Emma Frost and Mysterio. To further establish his reign, he eliminated major Marvel icons such as Silver Surfer and Magneto. Before his demise, Magneto managed to summon heroes from Reality: 616 in an effort to save his world.

Interestingly, the Doom 2099 character offers a fresh twist compared to the infamous Doctor Doom. In comic lore, Doom 2099 leans more towards being an anti-hero than a true villain, a theme that Marvel Rivals seems to echo as he contends with his darker counterpart for reality’s control.

The uniqueness of Doom 2099’s character and his fit in this collaboration make a case for his upcoming inclusion in Fortnite. Additionally, he and Doctor Doom’s past and future versions effectively bridge the narrative of Marvel Rivals. Considering Doom 2099’s rise in gaming throughout 2024, entering Fortnite would mark the third game this character graces within the month.

### Marvel Rivals’ Expanding Universe

Marvel Rivals made its official debut on December 6, introducing players to a game universe packed with thirty-three characters. While Doom 2099 is featured as an NPC, his vital role in the storyline hints at the complexity of Marvel’s multiverse. Due to the mishaps from Doom and Doom 2099’s experiments, various universes collided in the Timestream Entanglement, bringing a spectrum of heroes and villains together in Marvel Rivals.

Similar to Marvel Rivals, Marvel Snap’s character roster pulls from both well-known and obscure Marvel figures. If the Fortnite leaks hold true, Doom 2099 will join another Marvel Rivals event. Marvel Snap’s “Marvel Rivals Season” includes new cards styled after the Marvel Rivals designs, featuring Doom 2099 along with characters like Galacta and Rocket Raccoon. This exciting season spans from December 3 to January 7, with Doom 2099’s addition slotted for December 17.

Joining Fortnite would not only complete Doom 2099’s gaming trio but also firmly tie him to Marvel Rivals. Although Fortnite hasn’t confirmed these leaks, the current collabs featuring Marvel Rivals’ characters indicate a strong possibility of Doom 2099’s imminent debut in the game.

As Fortnite continues to expand with dynamic collaborations and compelling stories, players are left eagerly anticipating what exciting content lies on the horizon. Whether you’re into high-octane battles or exploring new worlds, Fortnite keeps serving up fresh experiences — and these potential additions are no exception.
