1. The Fortnite-MCU crossover:
The Avengers Infinity War crossover set the ball rolling, with the Infinity Gauntlet-wielding Thanos being the star attraction. A host of accessible skins, ranging from Star Lord to Black Widow, all the way to Chapter 2 Season 2’s wickedly-fun Deadpool-theme yacht, further piqued interest. The excitement attached to each weekly challenge has further popularised the game, as the secret agent theme was a huge hit among fans worldwide.
Now, in Season 3, armed with a proto-adamantium pickaxe and back bling, comes our favourite Avenger: Captain America himself, grand salute emote included! Available for 2000 V-bucks, and an additional 300 V-Bucks for the emote, this addition is a huge advancement upon the shield throwable available in 2018’s Avengers crossover episode.

In September 2019, when Gotham City was added into Fortnite, DC fans across the globe were sent into a tizzy as their brooding caped crusader, The Dark Knight Batman, himself was available as a skin.
