Fortnite appears to be teasing another film crossover with the Marvel Cinematic Universe. A Fornite tweet with the hashtag #FortniteXAvengers quotes the "Whatever it takes" tagline and gives a drop date of April 25, the day of the first public screenings of Avengers: Endgame.
Most intriguingly, though, the image shows a Fortnite character holding Captain America’s iconic shield. That suggests this event could revolve around giving your battle royale participants some gear from the Marvel movie franchises as new pieces of equipment.
Whatever it takes.

The last crossover event with Fortnite coincided with Avengers: Infinity War. That one allowed you to equip the fabled Infinity Gauntlet, but it was so powerful it got nerfed almost immediately. The community had suggested that the limited-time mode Infinity Gauntlet could come back for Endgame. This teaser doesn’t confirm the return of that LTM, but it does at least show that Fortnite isn’t letting the conclusion of the Infinity Saga pass by unnoticed.
Avengers Endgame is coming on April 26, with some screenings scheduled for the evening of April 25. Spoilers have begun to leak on the Internet, making this a very perilous couple of days for fans who want to be surprised when they see the conclusion of this decade-long story. The film’s directors have politely asked everyone not to spoil the fun for others, but we’ve also put together some practical advice on how to avoid being spoiled.
Meanwhile, Fortnite is preparing for its next big seasonal changeover with runes that have appeared around the island. Over the weekend they began slotting into chambers in a giant vault underneath Loot Lake, heralding the arrival of something. We’ll just have to wait to find out what.
