A new Fortnite season means new locations to explore, and with Doctor Doom being in the middle of attention, there are new villainous POIs on the Island. You can find Castle Doom, Doomstadt, and The Raft on the north side of the map. As always, expect new bosses with new Medallions overseeing these locations.
Alongside new locations, Doctor Doom’s minions are now taking control of the Island. You can down these enemies and give them a chance to fight alongside you for the greater good.
New Mythics and weapons
