To kick things off, let’s take a look at the new weapons, cosmetics, and items available this season.

The battle pass includes Thor, Storm, Mystique, She-Hulk, Dr. Doom, Groot, and Iron Man skins. While we also saw Wolverine in the trailer, his skin is yet to make an appearance in the store. There are also pickaxes and gliders that can only be used when donning specific skins.

Additionally, each of those skins comes with a unique emote. Mystique’s emote is particularly unique, as you can steal an enemy’s skin momentarily after you eliminate them.

Mystic items in Season 4

There are also quite a few mystic items available. For instance, if you shoot down the supply drones near the Quinjet, you find a Silver Surfer glider inside. Shoot down another drone and find an item called Groot’s Gramble Shield that allows you to turn into a giant ball. This allows you to move around faster and it recharges every 25 seconds.

Once you defeat the robots near the Quinjet, they drop a Stark Energy Rifle. This is a powerful weapon to have in your arsenal.

The fishing system in the game also gets a huge update. There are now 39 new fish available for you to catch hold of. You can also upgrade your rod to catch a higher rarity fish.
