Epic Games certainly has a flair for drama. For the past four days, the developer has been slowly filling in a teaser image for the much-anticipated Season 4 Battle Pass in Fortnite: Battle Royale, adding a new superhero skin to the comet-shaped image every day. Today we got out last hero, which is just in time for the end date of Season 3 and the possible start date of Season 4 -- April 30. Check out the completed teaser image below, with the newest character in the portion at the tip of the comet:
We can't see much about the new character, save that she has a sort of armor-thing sticking up over her neck -- it's not totally unlike the Steelsight skin unveiled a few days ago, which has a certain superhero-quality to it. The character joins a stern-looking fellow with a scar over his eyebrow, a woman with a jewel on her forehead and a guy that looks a whole lot like The Flash. They would all appear to be aligned, at least from what this image can communicate, but it's also possible that there's a Supervillain in the mix here somewhere.
There are still a ton of questions about Season 4, most notably those concerning that big blue comet-like object that's been hanging out in the sky ever since the beginning of Season 3. We have to assume that it's coming in soon, but that's basically all we know about it: it might destroy Tilted Towers, it might destroy Dusty Depot, it might bring with it a race of aliens that require the efforts of a bunch of superheroes to fight. Or it might cause some sort of nuclear reaction that creates superheroes! It's hard to say, but it does seem likely that we'll finally be getting our answers soon. The words "brace for impact" still grace the top of the game's news feed, so we have to assume that something is coming crashing to Earth.
As with the daily teasers, Epic has done an incredible job keeping us guessing for the entire season and for the past few days. It makes me excited not only to see just what actually happens when Season 4 starts, but also whatever weird mysteries we have coming in the future. Stay tuned.
