By Nicholas Barth ·
The Fortnite Twitter account has revealed a third superhero skin for Season 4 of Fortnite Battle Royale, and the character bears somewhat of a resemblance to Aquaman of DC Comics and Hanzo of Overwatch.
The Fortnite Twitter account has begun to reveal multiple superhero skins that will be available for players to acquire in Season 4 of Fortnite Battle Royale. The past two days has seen a character that some have pointed to resembling The Flash, while yesterday saw the reveal of a character that many believed to be inspired from Wonder Woman. Today, a third Fortnite superhero skin was teased to the community, and the very partial look of the intimidating character has some members of the community believing that he is Epic Games' version of Aquaman.
It is important to note that there has been official confirmation by any official Fortnite channel regarding the identity of these new superhero skins, and the newly revealed character could also possibly be the first villain that has been teased considering his menacing demeanor. Information provided for Season 4 of Fortnite by one reddit user whose has had previous leaks confirmed in the past has stated that the Season 4 Battle Pass will consist of at least 2 superhero skins and two villian skins. With two what looks to be superhero skins already teased, it is highly possible that our new face is not of a Aquaman inspiration but of a evil mastermind ready to take over the world of Fortnite. Other members of the community are also suggesting that the newly shown skin shows similarities to the archer Hanzo of Blizzard Entertainment's first person shooter Overwatch.
Until Season 4 begins, and we get the confirmed Battle Pass and everything it entails, we can only speculate the origins behind these three superhero or villian skins and if they truly are intended to represent the likes of Aquaman, Hanzo or Wonder Woman and if they have anything to do with the meteor that is due to land and destroy a section of Fortnite's map anytime now. Could these superheroes have been created by Epic Games to save us from the impending doom of the meteor or are they here to defeat the villains who have nefarious plans for the players who are chasing after victory royales?
