Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Loading Screen is a fun Easter egg and a touching homage

The latest Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 early access gameplay footage from @Hypex showcases the Battle Pass Reward on Page 9, which is a beautiful tribute to Captain America:

The loading screen shows Captain Jonesy, one of the Marvel variants of Jones, coming across Steve Rogers' original shield in an underground basement or hideout. The signature shield also has a note attached to it:

"I thought you could use this - Steve Rogers"

This is a subtle tribute to the original Captain America. It indicates that it is now time for him to hand over the charge to the next generation of Marvel Superheroes like Captain Jonesy.

The shot of Captain Jonesy lifting the shield essentially establishes his canon as the Captain America/Jonesy of the island's universe in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4. This also resonates with the Marvel lore about other characters like Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson, who had taken up the charge after Rogers' retirement.

Captain Jonesy and his Outfit, as well as related cosmetics, are part of the Battle Pass rewards, as seen in the early access gameplay shared by popular content creator and data miner @Hypex and @SHiinaBR.

The Outfit is also displayed on the Battle Pass webpage. Players can purchase the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 Battle Pass for 950 V-Bucks and unlock Outfits such as Captain Jonesy, Emma Frost, Gwenpool, and Mysterio, among others.
