Over the past week, Fortnite players have been enjoying a plethora of Marvel-themed content as part of the game’s Season 4 update. Along with new skins based on classic Marvel characters like The Silver Surfer, players have been able to explore new areas packed with comic book easter eggs. Now, if a recent leak is to be believed, it seems like the map will be getting a new area centered around the Avengers’ size-shifting hero: Ant-Man.
Leaks for Fortnite Season 4 have been plentiful over the past few days. Besides the Silver Surfer skin that is now in the game, players discovered that Fortnite would be adding a She-Hulk skin to the game shortly before the new season began. Not only did the She-Hulk skin make it as part of the season’s battle pass, but players even found that Jennifer Walters had her own point of interest on the Fortnite map.

The newest leak for Fortnite seems to revolve around Ant-Man. A recent hotfix for the game added a unique string of code for an area of the map called “Ant Manor.” While it’s not known if this Ant-Man will be Hank Pym or Scott Lang, an area known as “Ant Manor” would likely point to the home of Hank Pym.
This Ant Manor leak comes not long after another recent map leak. The other leak came only a day after the launch of Season 4, where players discovered that a Black Panther area called the Panther Monument would be coming near Misty Meadows. Along with this point of interest, players will also see a Black Panther skin added to the game with an ability called Kinetic Absorption, similar to Black Panther’s suit powers in the movie.
With the addition of the Ant Manor, there has been a lot of speculation as to what players could find at this new point of interest. This season has seen the introduction of Marvel-themed bosses like Doctor Doom that drop powerful items for players when defeated. A new boss battle with Yellowjacket could be possible here, with players gaining either shrinking or growing abilities.
The Ant Manor seems to be but one of many Marvel-themed surprises planned for Season 4. With ability/item codenames leaked like “Collector” and “DogHouse,” there’s a possibility that players could see a variety of characters that wouldn’t usually get the coveted Marvel limelight, such as The Inhumans. With an inevitable conflict with Galactus teased for later on in the season, it seems like the Avengers could use all the help they can get.
Fortnite is available now on PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One with PS5 and Xbox Series X versions currently in development.
