Ant-Man POI could be coming as part of Deadpool & Wolverine Fortnite collaboration
It would seem that Ant-Man's giant remains which were showcased in the Deadpool & Wolverine trailer could be coming to Fortnite. It would be rather difficult to add this massive POI to the game given the sheer size of the character, but not impossible. In the trailer, it's located in a dusty/sandy setting, as such, the Nitrodrome would be the perfect place to have it featured.
A user by the name of JustAFrog123 on social media platform "X" shared what appears to be the mesh for this upcoming location. With Chapter 5 Season 4 slated to feature Doctor Doom and other characters from the MCU, an Ant-Man POI makes sense.
That said, multiple leakers (HYPEX, ShiinaBR, iFireMonkey) have also stated that a Deadpool & Wolverine Fortnite collaboration is in the works. This is due to the fact that the actors (Ryan Renolds and Hugh Jackman) were meeting with Fortnite content creators. This adds to the credibility of an Ant-Man POI, but things are not what they would seem. Despite fans going gaga over this new location, it's nothing more than an amazing concept.
What we know about the upcoming Ant-Man POI in Fortnite
"X" user JustAFrog, posted three images to showcase this upcoming location. They claim the images can be located under a file called, “TEMPORARYDELETE_Doesnt_Age". The post also states that the location will appear during the next update (v30.30) which is due to arrive on July 23, 2024.
Here is the post with the images:
The images show a rough POI sketch/mesh that resembles Ant-Man's head and body buried in the sand, just like in the Deadpool & Wolverine trailer. It would appear that the town is built around the corpse of the enlarged Scott Lang.
We know for a fact that this is indeed Ant-Man because Deadpool in the trailer states, "Paul Rudd finally aged." He is the actor who plays Ant-Man in the MCU. As such this solidifies the notion that the giant figure in the desert is indeed Ant-Man. While the possibility of an Ant-Man POI being added is indeed exciting, it will probably not happen.
As it turns out, while the Ant-Man POI indeed looks incredible, it's not real. It's a fan-made concept that stretches the imagination of what could be possible in Fortnite. Given that The Daily Bugle (Spider-Man) could be featured as a Named Location, there's no reason as to why this cannot. It would be a perfect the location with which to replace the Nitrodrome.
Could Deadpool, Ant-Man, and Wolverine feature in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4?
With Fortnite leaks hinting at a Deadpool & Wolverine collaboration, it is hard not to imagine having these characters featured on the island as NPCs. Deadpool and Wolverine were once both featured on the island as a boss. They could be added again. Ant-Man was only ever featured as an Outfit.
That said, as the final update for Chapter 5 Season 3 draws near, more will be revealed. Who knows what Epic Games has planned. While few things have been leaked, the bulk of what is to come remains unknown. If not the moral remains of a giant Ant-Man, then perhaps a new version of the character is deifnelty a posibility.
