Fortnite Players Concerned About Captain Jones’ Possible Exit in Upcoming Endgame

Fans of Fortnite’s Captain Jones are anxiously discussing the potential demise of this beloved character by the end of the current season. The Absolute Doom event in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4 has introduced Marvel-themed NPCs, including Shuri, Gwenpool, and Captain Jones, featuring one of Jonesy’s many forms.

Keen Fortnite players are speculating online about Captain Jones’s fate, suggesting that Epic Games may be hinting at the end of his storyline within the Fortnite universe. Initial hints regarding Captain Jones’s potential failure in the battle against Doctor Doom can be seen in the season’s concept art. One fan pointed out the broken Captain America shield depicted in the artwork.

This broken shield may symbolize Captain Jones’s attempt to confront Doom, ultimately failing and leaving behind a shield for Hope, who held it in the art. While some speculate it is merely a nod to Avengers: Endgame, where Steve Rogers’s shield was also destroyed, there are further indications of Captain Jones’s fate.

Another fan shared a post on X quoting Captain Jones’s NPC dialogue: “You always expect one of these to be your last, I guess.” This ominous statement certainly gives the impression of a character facing an impending end.

Players have also observed that Jones has taken on a mentorship role with Hope throughout Chapter 5. It makes sense for Hope to inherit the mantle of hero, as Captain Jones has been the primary protagonist since the start of Fortnite’s Battle Royale.

Nonetheless, there is a glimmer of hope. Another theorist suggested that since Jones is currently embodying Captain America, his sacrifice might not involve his death, but rather him becoming trapped, similar to the plot in The First Avenger.

Epic Games could potentially mislead players into thinking that Captain Jones has met his end, only to reveal in a future season that he actually survived, paralleling the narrative from the MCU’s The First Avenger.

While these are all mere theories, the Fortnite community is increasingly convinced that Captain Jones’s endgame is imminent, based on several clues.

On a lighter note, Fortnite fans can look forward to a LEGO Fortnite Halloween event, stemming from a recently released teaser trailer.
