The latest update in Fortnite has revealed the inside of Castle Doom, featuring a surprise appearance from The Thing, a popular Fantastic Four member. In this universe, it seems that The Thing has met his demise and is now being used as a throne by Doctor Doom. This confirmation by Epic Games indicates that at least one member of the Fantastic Four has been killed off by Doom.
Additionally, a recent tweet from the official Fortnite account provided a glimpse of the Season’s Points of Interest (POIs), including the map for Absolute Doom. One of the screenshots unveiled the interior of Castle Doom for the first time, showcasing the throne on which Doctor Doom will be seated. Despite the shocking revelation of The Thing’s apparent demise, some optimism remains that this version of Ben Grimm in Castle Doom could be an alternate character.
There is hope that The Thing may still resurface alive at some point during the Season. However, if this turns out to be untrue, it is undeniably surprising to see the character definitively killed off in this manner.
