Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 is only a few days away! The new season is scheduled to begin this Thursday, and many players can’t wait for it. Epic Games has revealed a lot of new things coming with it, including the entire Battle Pass. On top of this, it looks like a fan-favorite Fortnite weapon will return this week, according to a recent leak.

Since Epic changed the release date of Season 4, we’ll be able to access new content even earlier. So let’s take a look at some new and returning weapons that will come on Friday, including several fan favorites!

The iconic Fortnite weapon is coming back

The next Fortnite season will have a Marvel theme, Epic has confirmed. Many popular characters will come to the game, from War Machine to Gwenpool. Additionally, the game developer will release another variant of Doctor Doom. This time, however, the villain will be a bonus skin that will be unlockable through a special questline later in the season.

Hypex, the most popular Fortnite leaker, revealed that the SCAR is coming back in Season 4. The iconic assault rifle was last available in the OG season, and its return will certainly be exciting. On top of this, it appears that its suppressed variant will also come back to the game.

The veteran leaker revealed a list of many other weapons that will be available in Season 4:

  • Captain America’s Shield
  • Peelverine’s Claws
  • Gwenpool’s Blades
  • Shuri’s Mythics
  • Iron Man’s Gloves
  • Stark Industries’ Energy Rifle
  • War Machine’s Jetpack + Turret
  • NEW – Dual SMGs
  • NEW – Sniper Rifle
  • NEW – Single-Hand Pistol
  • Suppressed SCAR
  • Heavy Assault Rifle

It appears that almost every Battle Pass character will have their own weapon, which will likely be a Mythic. Furthermore, it’s important to note that not all of these items may be available on the first day of the season. Instead, Epic Games may bring some of them with content updates later in the season.
