What to Expect in Fortnite Super Showdown Story Event
For now, Epic Games isn’t telling us much, but we have got some good hints from the teaser and leaks. Looks like the fight is going down at Demon’s Domain, and this place might get totally wrecked during the event.

Based on the event poster, we can see that Superman is coming back to save the island. It shows him as the main guy, and he is going to be a big part of whatever chaos is about to unfold. It’s always awesome when these big characters show up during live events, especially with the new James Gunn Superman movie out.
Plus, if you watch the teaser trailer posted above, it shows what looks like a huge Kraken with glowing eyes. This sea monster seems to be the bad guy trying to mess up the island. It might be connected toDaigo, too!
What This Means for Next Season
Every big Fortnite event changes the map and how you play for the upcoming season. With Demon’s Domain getting destroyed, we are definitely getting a new POI to replace it. Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3 Super will end on August 8th, so Chapter 6 Season 4 is coming soon. Expect new weapons, vehicles, and maybe a totally different theme.
Some leaks say The Simpsons might be the next big crossover, and some also say that the big theme will be around Bug Invasion. Nothing’s set in stone yet, so we need to wait.
The Super Showdown event is going to be one of the biggest Fortnite events ever. Set a reminder, clear your schedule for August 2nd, and get ready for some serious island-breaking action. You really don’t want to miss this one!
