Today is a premiere day for Marvel , both on the big screen and on streaming platforms. In addition to the highly anticipated Avengers: Endgame , Epic Games has also joined the party by launching a new Limited Time Mode in which Marvel heroes will be present on the Fortnite island . Well, sort of.
How to play with Thanos and the Avengers accessories in Fortnite 8.50
Fortnite's new 8.50 patch has included what many were hoping for: a small tribute to the Avengers. The new Limited Time Mode brings back the tyrant Thanos, whom players can control alongside the Chitauri in an attempt to find the six Infinity Stones hidden across the island. The problem for them is that on the other side are the players on the side of the heroes, who can use some of the Avengers' iconic items (Captain America's shield, Thor's hammer, Iron Man's gauntlets, or Hawkeye's bow) scattered around the map to put an end to Thanos 's army's plans.
The objectives are very clear: Thanos and his minions must find the 6 Infinity Stones and kill the heroes, while the heroes must kill the Chitauri and Thanos. The Chitauri team will start with a laser rifle, anti-structure grenades, and a high-jumping jet, and the first Chitauri to find a gem will automatically become Thanos (so it is understood that the game will start without Thanos, and won't appear until that the first gem is not found).
