Epic stops ‘Infinity Blade’ in Fortnite after user complaints

Fortnite players will no longer be able to use the recently introduced Infinity Blade. The weapon was found to be disruptive because it would provide users with too many benefits, so it has been removed from the game for now.

It is an item in the so-called Mythic series, which game developer Epic recently added to Fortnite. The Infinity Blade was found to contain features that were perceived as overpowered by players, which ultimately led to many complaints; according to Fortnite gamers, there is little to do against the Infinity Blade and there are no effective counters. In response, Epic has announced that the Infinity Blade can no longer be used for the time being.

In a reaction the game developer announced that it made a mistake in Fortnite with the Infinity Blade. Also, in response to players’ complaints, the Mythic gear will be re-examined to determine if changes to the weapon’s properties are necessary.

Fortnite is a popular game that now has hundreds of millions of players. It is a shooter that is available for macOS, iOS, PlayStation 4, Windows, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One, but has recently become accessible to mobile users on Android.
