We will update this article with the full set of patch notes for the Fortnite x Avengers: Endgame 8.50 update when they are first revealed. 

While the patch notes for the Fortnite x Avengers: Endgame 8.50 update have not yet been shown off, Epic Games has provided players clues that have provided some details of what the community can expect to see.

The first of these clues have been the three teaser images that Epic Games has posted to the social media accounts of the battle royale game. These teaser images have shown off characters from the battle royale title using Captain America's shield, Thor's Stormbreaker, and Iron Man's hand blasters. This has led to much speculation that the Avengers: Endgame crossover event will feature cosmetic items based on these famous Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) weapons and or a Limited Time Mode where players will be able to find and use these powerful weapons. 

Another clue as to what may be included in the Fortnite x Avengers: Endgame crossover came in the announcement post of the 8.50 update patch notes release date and time, as it contained the word of "Snap". This mentioning of the action that Thanos performed in Infinity War that wiped out half of the universe has many individuals believing that the Infinity Gauntlet Limited Time Mode from last year's Fortnite x Avengers crossover where players could become Thanos will be making a return in the 8.50 update patch notes for the Endgame version.

Unfortunately, until the official release of the 8.50 update patch notes, the community of the battle royale title will have to wait to see exactly what kind of adventures await it in the Fortnite x Avengers: Endgame crossover event.
