Previously, in Fortnite…[]
In Chapter 5: Season 1, Pandora's Box was opened by Valeria which unleashed the souls of The Underworld to the Island.
In Chapter 5: Season 2, The Pantheon arrived on the Island to close the box and punish The Society. After they resealed the evil souls of The Underworld away in the cursed box, Zeus decided to kill all mortals. The Oracle, The Looper, Aphrodite, Artemis, Apollo, Poseidon, Medusa, Hope, and Jones fought against the gods, finally defeating Zeus once and for all. In a last desperate act, Zeus made the statue at Mount Olympus strike Pandora's Box three times to unleash Nitro from within, creating a huge sandstorm that engulfed the southern part of the Island and attracted the Wasteland Warriors toward the Island as well as making the box disappear.
In Chapter 5: Season 3, the Wasteland Warriors arrived and claimed the Wasteland as well as all the Nitro, with their leader Megalo Don seeking the power of Pandora's Box and to raze the Island. After getting some advice from a mysterious hooded Wanderer, he had a pipeline built connecting the Nitro Refinery to his Leviathan ship. When the time came he activated it to refuel his ship. However, The Wanderer, who revealed himself as Doctor Doom, betrayed him and hacked the pipeline, making it explode in a chain reaction and revealing Pandora's Box. The Oracle later reveals that Hope and Pandora's Box are linked by fate, but Doctor Doom has interfered in this destiny. Hope and her forces must fight against Doom's forces and win.
How did it start?[]
Doctor Doom went near Pandora's Box and opened the box, absorbing all of its power. He then gathered powerful allies, such as Emma Frost, Mysterio, Meowtooth, etc. establishing the Kingdom of Doom. Doom also killed Silver Surfer, Ultron, Galactus, Moon Knight, Doctor Strange, Namor, Thanos, Magneto, and the Fantastic Four. Due to Pandora's Box's powers trying to control Doom, he is making a new armor for himself. Magneto, before dying, called reinforcements from Reality: 616 to fight alongside Heroic Hope against the Kingdom of Doom!
Storyline[]
War Machine, Shuri, Gwenpool, Iron Spider, Cyclops, Colossus, Jubilee, Cable, Rogue, and Gambit have arrived from Reality: 616. Peely also has been transformed into Peelverine, Vengeance Jones became Captain Jones, and Hope is now Heroic Hope, who is destined to defeat Doom. Doom has also went into hiding in order to make his new armor.
In Part 1 of Found Quests, Gwenpool had intentionally got "captured" in The Raft in order to get intel. The Looper steals a ID chip from a henchman and gives it to Gwenpool. Gwenpool says that the ID chip had *some* intel, but not all of it. Gwenpool asks The Looper to hack into The Raft's systems to get a flash drive using the passphrase "CYNTHIA". The Looper gets the flash drive and gives it to Gwenpool. Lastly, Gwenpool asks The Looper to steal some computer chips from electronic crates to give to Shuri. At the end of Part 1 of Found Quests, The Looper gives the chips to Gwenpool. She mentions how Shuri needs the chips for "rift tech".
In Part 1 of Story Quests, "Are We Doomed?", The Looper finds Doom's helmet at Redline Rig. Hope, Jones, and The Oracle say that the helmet is a prototype. The Looper brings the helmet to Hope. She says that she's confused on how Doom took over the Island so quickly. She suspects that Doom is up to something that will destroy us all and she has no idea how to stop him. Jones says that Doom wanted us to find the helmet and has The Looper try to find anything else of importance with no success. The Looper than picks up recording devices of Doom's memos, which reveal that Doom plans to make a world of perfect order and he needs to upgrade his armour in order to contain the box's power. At the end of Part 1 of Story Quests, Hope says that Doom is controlling his army remotely using Doombot technology. She says that we need to first find Doom before we can fight him.
In Part 2 of Story Quests, "Heroes Assemble", Jones asks The Looper to open a Doom Chest. Jones asks him if there was anything interesting inside, and starts telling him about his past. Later, The Looper eliminates a Latverian Guard to retrieve a shipping manifest from Doom. To prepare The Looper for battle, Jones asks him to retrieve epic or better weapons from eliminated players. He gives the manifesto to War Machine who deciphers it; It is pieces from Pandora's Box that Doom uses to create his new armor. So, The Looper gets trained by War Machine using his Arsenal and his Hover Jets. Later, The Looper intercepts a discussion between Jones, Hope and The Oracle,saying she saw something new. "A feline ally. A cunning plan. A victory, hidden in defeat". Due to this, Hope panics more and more about her role as the heroine. At the end of Part 2 of Story Quests, Jones says that Shuri met up with him, saying that she has a plan to take down the Doombot.
In Part 3 of Story Quests, "Shuri's Invention",

Trivia[]

- Chapter 5: Season 4 is the second season to feature only collaborations within its Battle Pass, with the previous season being Chapter 2: Season 4.
- Coincidentally, both seasons were themed around Marvel, started in August, and were the fourth seasons of their respective Chapters.
- Chapter 5: Season 4 is the first season in which the Battle Pass Cosmetics are not exclusive, as they have the possibility of returning to the Item Shop 18 months or more after the season's expiration.[11]
- This change was made primarily to enable players down the road to also enjoy the content, notably the outfits based on popular licensed characters.
- Chapter 5: Season 4’s theme was previously shown when Epic Games' Fortnite roadmap for 2024 was leaked online.
- The keyart in the roadmap is a cropped picture of the 2022 Fantastic Four comics, primarily Issue 7.
