UPDATE: Epic Games continues its collaboration with Marvel after releasing a new game mode, skins and weapons for Fortnite. Taking to Twitter for a preview, the game’s team unveiled the latest skin to join the Item Shop: Guardians of the Galaxy‘s very own Star-Lord. Along with the skin comes a special dance emote called “Dance Off”, featuring the character’s iconic dance battle against Ronan the Accuser in the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie. For a look at the Star-Lord model doing the “Dance Off”, check it out in the tweet below.

ORIGINAL STORY (April 25 2019): Epic Games and Marvel have once again joined forces to create a new mode for Fortnite Battle Royale in celebration of Avengers: Endgame‘s debut in theaters.

Following its previous collaboration, Thanos returns to Fortnite but this time alongside his army of Chitauri warriors. “Endgame Mode” sees players fight against Thanos and his forces as The Avengers team by keeping him from collecting the Infinity Stones and ending the world. Those on the side of Thanos control the Chitauri equipped with laser rifles.

The first player to find an Infinity Stone will transform into Thanos, allowing him to super jump, use beam attacks, and more. If players collect them all, respawning is disabled for the Avengers team. The Avengers players can pick up iconic Avengers weapons like Captain America’s shield and Iron Man’s Repulsors in chests scattered throughout the map.

Check out the trailer above, and the patch notes in the tweet below.

In other entertainment news, Avengers: Endgame has no post-credit scene.
