When The Hulk and Rocket (Bradley Cooper) head to Tønsberg, Norway to visit Thor in his new abode, they find him shacking up with Korg (Taika Waititi) and Miek, who are busy playing the hit video game Fortnite.

Hilariously, Korg ends up enlisting the Asgardian's aid when a child starts hurling abuse his way over voice chat, in what feels like nothing less than an authentic depiction of what your average Fortnite match is like.

It's worth noting, however, that while the Russos are reportedly huge fans of Fortnite, this was a rather shameless act of product placement, given that Fortnite has an ongoing cross-promotion with The Avengers franchise (even allowing fans to play as Thanos in the game).
