Doom comes above all, and Marvel x Fortnite's latest collaboration brings forth Victor Von Doom himself to terrorize the Battle Royale island again.
This guide aims to fill in players on the Day of Doom LTM, exclusively available in Fortnite. Down below, gamers will find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about this game mode.
When Will Day of Doom Go Live in Fortnite?
Downtime for patch v31.20 ended around 6 AM ET on September 17. Some of the previously confirmed content, such as the Iron Man Mark 45 skin and the Lost Isles update for LEGO Fortnite, became available right after servers went up. However, that was not the case with Day of Doom.
Day of Doom LTM will be available in Fortnite at 9 AM ET on September 17, 2024.
How to Play Day of Doom in Fortnite
Day of Doom should work like any other LTM, so gamers will mostly find it in the Popular or By Epic section of the Discovery tab. According to Epic Games, this is a 32-player large team game mode. There are two teams of 16 players: Doom's Henchmen vs the Avengers.
How Does Day of Doom Work?
Each team has a different objective in Day of Doom:
- Doom's Henchmen: the first objective is to collect six Arcane Artifacts, as this makes it impossible for players on the opposite to continue to respawn. Then, they must eliminate all players on the Avengers team to win the game.
- Avengers: continuously take down Doom's Henchmen until they've run out of respawns. The Avengers team must do this before the opposite team collects the Arcane Artifacts and eliminates every Avenger.
