Epic Games gave us our first sneak peek at their upcoming Fortnite event celebrating Avengers Endgame earlier this week and since then we’ve seen Captain America’s sheild and Thor’s Stormbreaker. Now we’re getting ready to suit up as our favorite billionaire, because the third teaser has arrived and celebrates all things Iron Man.
Whatever it takes.

Captioned once more with “Whatever it takes,” the third teaser is a fiery addition to the previous two, blending a Fortnite avatar with that of Iron Man’s instantly recognizable suit. When Epic Games first introduced Marvel into the realm of battle royale, it was with a simple Thanos event that revolved around getting the Infinity Gauntlet away from him due to its power. Unfortunately, there were no skins or other attributes outside of Thanos’ addition.
Many fans wanted more and it looks like Epic Games has listened. Not only will we have the Avengers facing off against Thanos, but it looks like the studio could be teasing Marvel-themed skins. Captain America back bling, anyone?
Details of the event have been kept under wraps in true Epic style, but just by the teasers alone it looks much more intricate than the previous event. Though it’s nice to see some form of official confirmation, the news of the Avengers once more taking on battle royale isn’t a total surprise. Earlier this month we had an extensive leak datamined from the game’s files that showed that Thanos would be indeed returning, though it looks like Epic Games is ready to expand upon the first event to be more than just Thanos himself.
The battle for the universe officially kicks off on April 25th for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices.
