Following player backlash over the Infinity Blade weapon’s inclusion in Fortnite’s battle royale mode, Epic Games decided to remove the weapon from the game completely. It was not limited to a special mode, as had been the case for other extremely powerful weapons, such as Thanos’ Infinity Gauntlet.
Epic Games’ “Infinity Blade” creation might want to think about a name change. After Epic Games removed the game Infinity Blade and its sequels from digital storefronts, the titular weapon was added to Fortnite as a new battle royale item, but player backlash has resulted in the blade being removed from that game as well.
The Infinity Blade was added to Fortnite ‘s battle royale mode in an update earlier this week and was made available in standard matches. Once one player equipped it, it wouldn’t spawn for the rest of the match, and that player was able to cause chaos with powerful swings, increased health and shields, and longer jumps.
