Thanos LTM possibly returning to Fortnite for Avengers: Endgame Marvel villain Thanos might be making his long-awaited return to Fortnite Battle Royale soon, just in time for the release of Avengers: Endgame, indicated by new data mined game files from the v8.30 update. The April 10 Fortnite update wasn\u2019t exactly celebrated by players, as many of the issues they hoped to see fixed were not, but for data miners, it was the another opportunity to see what the could find deep in the game files. As with every successive Fortnite update, these data miners look for clues about upcoming content, game modes, cosmetic items and more \u2013 and one such data miner appears to have stumbled upon the return of Thanos. Is Thanos coming back to Fortnite for Avengers: Endgame? Following the release of Infinity War, in April 2018, Fortnite developers Epic Games partnered up with the Russo brothers to bring the main villain, Thanos, directly into the game. Given his own separate mode, Thanos could be \u2018played\u2019 by one player on the map at a time, simply by finding his \u2018Infinity Gauntlet\u2019 on the map. However, the mode was only available for a limited time, and hasn\u2019t been seen, or heard about, since. With the next, and final, entry in the current Avengers story releasing soon, Fortnite fans speculated that the Purple villain could make a return, but this line of code from the game files following the v8.30 update may in fact be the confirmation that Thanos is indeed coming back to the battle royale game. \u2018Yielded to the POWER of Thanos\u2019 would be the death message used when a player is taken out by Thanos, presumably, and it is intriguing that is has been added to the game now, of all times.

Of course, this is just a game file, and it could be purely coincidental \u2013 but the timing is too perfect not to spark some speculation. It\u2019s true that Fortnite has received some negative feedback on other \u2018overpowered\u2019 items being put in the game (namely with Infinity Blade), but as long as Thanos is placed in a separate LTM (limited time mode), then fans would surely love to have him back \u2013 maybe this time with a hero or two as well\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
