Chapter 5 Season 4 of Fortnite has introduced a new Ghost Rider skin, but with a fun and unexpected twist. Known for its constant collaborations with Marvel, Fortnite continues to mix iconic characters with its unique art style, and this latest addition is no exception.
Ghost Rider, also known as Spirit of Vengeance, is a formidable superhero/anti-hero from Marvel. This Brimstone Avenger, known for his menacing stares, goes underappreciated at times. Thankfully, Epic Games knew exactly what they were doing with this twist. The Ghost Rider first debuted in Chapter 2: Season 4 boasting his well-known fire-y skull. However, as the Marvel-theme continues to grow in Fortnite, the new Ghost Rider skin has a “delicious” twist in the shape of Ghost Ri-Durrr.
In the latest Marvel collaboration, Fortnite has added the Ghost Ri-Durrr skin. This is a hilarious crossover between the classic comic book character Ghost Rider and Fortnite’s Beef Boss skin. The Ghost Rider Skin comes off as a playful take, blending the fiery skull and motorcycle chains with the goofy look of Beef Boss, who is associated with Fortnite’s in-game Durrr Burger fast food restaurant. The result is a skin that feels both powerful and lighthearted, appealing to fans of both Marvel and Fortnite’s quirky style.
The Ghost Ri-Durrr skin was made available in Fortnite’s item shop on September 18, 2024. This Ghost Rider skin quickly caught the attention of players due to its creative design and nod to both franchises. It’s not the first time Fortnite has blended well-known characters with its own. For instance, the current season also features a crossover skin between Wolverine and Peeley, Fortnite’s banana character.
In addition to the Ghost Rider skin, rumors are circulating about new Spider-Man content coming to Fortnite. Data miners have found files hinting at a possible Venom/Spider-Man crossover, though the details are still unclear. This follows Fortnite’s history of adding Spider-Man and Venom skins in past updates, but fans are eager to see what new variations might be coming.
Fortnite’s Chapter 5 Season 4 update, titled “Absolute Doom,” has turned parts of the map into areas controlled by Marvel villains like Doctor Doom, Mysterio, and Emma Frost. With the update set to conclude on November 2, 2024, players have plenty of time to unlock the Ghost Rider skin and other rewards.
