As Epic Games continues to develop in-game storylines in the lead-up to Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, players are undoubtedly excited to see what the developers have in store for them in the upcoming saga. This comes after a series of memorable mini-live events that have not only impacted the in-game environments but also added to the narrative leading into Chapter 5 Season 3.
However, outside of the game, leaks and reports have been constantly surfacing, adding to the already fever-pitch hype for the season. One of these leaks hints at yet another Marvel collaboration in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 Battle Pass. This is further reinforced by the newly released cinematic teaser for Chapter 5 Season 3 mentioning Marvel in its copyright.
Now, with the prospect of another one of Marvel's iconic characters coming to the game, players are theorizing about who they can expect to see in Chapter 5 Season 3.
This was brought up in a recent Reddit post shared by u/The_Iceman2288, where the player ignited a flurry of responses from the community:

Reddit user u/jezr3n expressed how they would love to see a skin for The Thing, the rocky brute from the Fantastic Four, come to the game and stop them from using Rick Grimes as their main skin.
Reddit user u/HearTheEkko conveyed their desire for more villain skins like Magneto and Galactus. Galactus already has an in-game design but it is not usable.
Meanwhile, Reddit user u/scott1swann highlighted how an Old Man Logan skin, with its worn-out and post-apocalyptic themes, would make for a perfect addition to Chapter 5 Season 3. They added how they would like to see the previously-rumored X-Men '97 skins added in the new season.
What does the new Marvel collaboration in the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 Battle Pass mean for the future?
While the prospect of another Marvel character coming to the game is exciting, the upcoming potential collaboration could have implications for not just Chapter 5 Season 3 but even Chapter 5 Season 4.
Since the previously leaked roadmap for the developer's plans for the game in 2024 has been more or less confirmed to be real, the upcoming Marvel collaboration in Chapter 5 Season 3 could act as a prelude to the Marvel theme of Chapter 5 Season 4.
According to the leaked roadmap, the season will revolve around Doctor Doom and the Fantastic Four, with the characters potentially being featured in the Battle Pass for Chapter 5 Season 4. However, since this information is largely based on leaks, it is subject to change.
