The online shooter Fortnite has been gripped by Marvel fever. Since the beginning of September, players have been able to transform themselves into one of Doctor Doom’s chosen ones. With the new patch that came out this week, the age of Iron Man has dawned. For some, this is great fun, for others, it’s just annoying.
This is how it has been since the beginning of September: Season 5 Chapter 4 has brought more chaos to Fortnite. From the beginning of September to October 5th, you can become Doctor Doom’s chosen one.
There is a small chance that the Isle of Doom will appear during a game. If you manage to get through here, you or a teammate will be transformed into “Doom’s Chosen”.
With this ability, you become a kind of final boss in the game Fortnite, you get 500 life points and guilt and can use numerous overpowered weapons: a laser beam, you can kick down from the air and you have a magical giga bomb.

Dr Doom’s Chosen One became the final boss in Fortnite
How powerful was Dr Doom? Anyone who transforms into Doom’s Chosen can cause a lot of damage in a game of Fortnite and was 5 times harder to defeat than a normal player.
However, this is a rare occurrence, as the island rarely appears.
What has changed now? With the new patch that came to Fortnite this week, new mythical Iron Man gear appeared in Fortnite. The Flight Kit lets players take off into the air, while the Combat Kit lets you fire a slow laser beam and faster repulsor blasts.
Combining both armor packs makes you ideally suited to take down Doctor Doom.
As Gamesradar writes, even the “Iron Man” equipment is no guarantee of victory over the “final boss of Fortnite”, but it is a good start.
Not everyone likes it when Fortnite uses such clearly overpowered weapons, because they distort the image that the strongest player always wins. But with such chaotic and overpowered powers, even people who otherwise never play a major role in Fortnite suddenly manage to shine: Chapter 5 is the worst chapter of Fortnite for many players because they have to endure the most annoying weapons
