All new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 revealed
Fortnite just announced all the new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 in its latest post on X. This comes less than two days before the new season arrives on August 16, 2024. The new locations are heavily based on the Absolute Doom theme of the chapter and on the Marvel heroes and villains who are set to arrive soon.
Here's everything we know about all the new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4.
All new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4
Doomstadt
Doomstadt is one of the new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 and is based on the actual Doomstadt in the Marvel Universe. It is a small Eastern European City within Latveria, formerly the royal palace of Hassenstadt. This unique city is based on Doctor Doom's personal life and the Romani camp near where he was born.
Based on the latest teaser by Fortnite, Doomstadt or the Doom Town is essentially Doctor Doom's tribute to his mother Cynthia Von Doom. Doomstadt replaces Lavish Lair as one of the new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4.
Players can expect several references and items related to Doctor Doom, including his Mythic weapon that is supposed to arrive in the next season. Doomstadt is tastefully crafted and looks like a city lost in time, featuring classic European buildings and hamlets, reflecting the city where Doctor Doom grew up.
Castle Doom
Castle Doom is essentially a replica of the castle in the Marvel universe. Castle Doom is a medieval-style palace that is the home of Doctor Doom. It is synonymous with the villainous Doom and is located just outside the city of Doomstadt, accurately representing the lore established in the Marvel Universe. Castle Doom replaces Classy Courts in-game.
Castle Doom will be a heavily guarded location and feature tons of Doombots, the hostile guards of Doctor Doom, as seen in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 trailer. According to the Marvel lore, Castle Doom is heavily guarded by the castle's automated defense system so players can expect heavy resistance if they plan on breaching it.
The Raft
The Raft is the third and final addition as part of the new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4. It is a high-security prison based on The Raft in Marvel, a super-maximum security prison for super-powered criminals. In the Marvel universe, it was located near Ryker's Island, New York. The Raft replaces the Pleasant Piazza in-game.
Players can expect the Raft to be heavily guarded and full of exciting loot, including tons of weapons expected to arrive in the coming season. The helipad on The Raft may also hint at the return of the beloved Choppa to the game.
The trailer also depicts Doctor Doom breaking out Mysterio from the Raft. Thus, Fortnite might use the Raft to introduce or break out more villains as the season progresses. This could be the perfect way of adding more Marvel-themed villains to the Fortnite Item Shop.
These are all the new locations in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 that will arrive as part of the Marvel-themed season on August 16, 2024. The next season will see a host of Marvel characters making their way to the island. Fortnite leaks also suggest that many Disney franchises like Monsters Inc and Cars may be added in the future.
