Fortnite and Marvel have become one of the biggest partnerships in gaming, and recent leaks are teasing even more skins on the way. Now that Chapter 6 Season 1 of Fortnite is underway with a wave of big changes, many have been wondering what else is on the horizon. If these leaks are true, then a lot more Marvel content is imminent.
According to well-known leaker ShiinaBR, Fortnite could get more Marvel skins in just a matter of days, further expanding its partnership with Disney and its various IP. At the beginning of 2024, Disney invested a whopping 1.5 billion dollars into Epic Games. While leaks should be met with skepticism, the combination of ShiinaBR having a history of correct predictions and Disney and Epic Games’ partnership makes the arrival of these four more Marvel skins much more probable.

Every Leaked Fortnite Marvel Skin So Far
Doom 2099
Doom 2099 is essentially the same villain as Doctor Doom, but this version of the Marvel Comics antagonist hails from the future. According to ShiinaBR, Doom 2099 is expected to be available in the Item Shop by December 9, so fans of the villain may want to keep their eyes peeled for a release. Fortnite fans will be quick to note that this is by no means the first time Doctor Doom has been featured in Fortnite. Chapter 5 Season 4 of Fortnite revolved heavily around Doctor Doom, becoming one of the game’s biggest Marvel crossovers yet.

A Trio of Spider-Verse Characters
- Peter B. Parker
- Spider-Noir
- Spider-Punk
Peter B. Parker
As one of the many Spider-Man variants featured in the beloved animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, this version of Spider-Man is an older iteration of Peter Parker. In his late 30s, actor Jake Johnson’s role as one of Marvel’s most iconic heroes was a standout portrayal of Parker, turning him into far more of a charming slacker than depicted in other adaptations. In the Spider-Verse movies, Peter B. Parker is depicted in his usual spidey-suit, but he also dons a brown trenchcoat, which would make for a fun Fortnite skin.
Spider-Noir
One Spider-Man variant that has received the most love from fans of Into the Spider-Verse is Spider-Noir. Nicknamed so because of his universe’s noir setting, Spider-Noir’s unique take on Peter Parker as a private investigator has been a big hit. Out of all the Spider-Verse variants, Spider-Noir may be one of the most striking in terms of design. The character has garnered such popularity that there is even a live-action series in the works based around Spider-Noir and his investigations in a 1930s New York City setting.
Nicolas Cage is reprising his role as Spider-Noir in the live-action series.
Spider-Punk
As the name implies, Spider-Punk is Spider-Man’s punk rock counterpart, complete with a spiked mohawk sitting on top of his head. Spider-Punk’s iconic and rock-infused character design would make him a perfect addition to Fortnite. All the aforementioned Marvel characters that ShiinaBR claims to be coming to Fortnite are destined to be hits among many players, especially fans of the Spider-Verse films. From Spider-Noir’s black and white mystery-focused appearance to Peter B. Parker’s trenchcoat-wearing slacker persona, the Spider-Verse movies have brought some of the best Spider-Man variants into the spotlight. Even though these new Marvel skins clash with Chapter 6 Season 1’s Japan-themed map, Fortnite‘s persistence to continue these crossovers hopefully brings both Doom 2099 and the Spider-Verse variants to the battle royale soon.
