If you’re a fan of both, we suspect you won’t be doing much else tonight.
Fortnite is currently the most played video game on the planet. The game is played by millions of people every day, and has taken the gaming world by storm since its inception in 2017. It has also become an internet sensation, with popular gamers such as Ninja often having over 600,000 people watching him stream him playing his games.
So if you were to combine that with Marvel’s latest hit movie Avengers: Infinity War, which is breaking basically every box office record it gets its hands on, then you’ve got the recipe for something huge.
Well that’s exactly what’s about to happen. Fortnite’s official Twitter page recently announced that there is going to be a crossover between the two taking place today.

Naturally, fans of the two are absolutely buzzing with the news.
LET ME GET SOMETHING STRAIGHT
Tomorrow on Fortnite I can launch into the Avengers: Infinity War mode and search to find the Infinity Gauntlet?!
If I get it, then I turn into Thanos?! I swear I’m dreaming. This is the greatest crossover in entertainment history.

Even if you have a fading interest in the two, it’s undeniably exciting that the biggest game of the year, is collaborating with the biggest movie of 2018. Don’t be surprised if you know someone who will be locking themselves in their room tonight to have a good ol’ fashioned gaming session.
