We're only just diving into the Marvel-themed Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, but it already looks like the breath of fresh air we've been asking for. Then again, after the car chaos of Chapter 5 Season 3 was dubbed the 'worst' of all time by the likes of Tyler "Ninja" Blevins, it couldn't have got much worse.
"Absolute Doom" looks set to live up to its name, with Doctor Doom/The Wanderer bringing another comic book caper to the island. Alongside new POIs like Castle Doom and The Raft, there are new weapons ranging from the Sovereign Shotgun to Captain America's shield, while some familiar faces are part of the spandex-clad Battle Pass.
Marvel Mother arrives in the form of Emma Frost
Epic Games is treating us to some fan favourites, with players unlocking Gwenpool just by buying the Battle Pass. After that, we'll grind through the levels to add the likes of War Machine and Mysterio before reaching Black Panther Shuri. While we know Doom is coming later on, there's more than enough to keep it busy.
While most of us are dying to unlock X-Force Peelverine, others are losing it over 'Marvel Mommy.' Emma Frost and her Organic Diamond form are both part of the Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass, but that's not all. If you head to The Raft prison POI, you'll get to take on Ms Frost in an NPC boss battle to try and grab her Reveal Medallion.
Known as the formidable lead of the Hellfire Club, Frost's comic book history is thankfully more interesting than January Jones' divisive portrayal of her in X-Men: First Class. When we first got a look at Emma Frost, Fortnite fans lost their collective minds, and the comment section quickly turned into a thirstfest.
One simply wrote, "Mommy I’ve been so bad," with another adding, "F**kkk she's so c*nty, I need her." A third concluded, "That black suit got me feeling some typa way." We're reminded of when you were all asking Resident Evil Village's Lady Dimitrescu to step on you.
There are three Emma Frost skins, with her Black Queen variant being part of the Bonus Rewards Battle Pass when you've reached Level 100 on the main one. Chapter 5 Season 4 looks like it could be the thirstiest yet, and with D23 announcing a collab with The Incredibles, we know another mother is on the horizon.
With the design of The Incredibles' Elastsigirl being known for her, erm, *assets*, fans are already drooling at her imminent arrival. Of course, the typically family-friendly Fortnite is destined to nerf Elastigirl's posterior. It seems some of you have forgotten what Fortnite is about, and maybe you should go take a cold shower.
