AvengersEndgamereleases on Blu-Ray and DVD in a couple of days, allowing many fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to relive the final moments of the Avengers' struggle against Thanos from the comfort of their home. Others have already dived into the various goodies associated with the digital edition, with one fan of the franchise, Redditor YourEverydayTeenager, editing a scene fromAvengersEndgameto include text and dialogue fromGrand Theft Auto 5. Because of the nature of this scene, this article will containSPOILERSfor those who have yet to seeEndgame.
While this isn’t the most obvious of crossovers, it works really within the context of theEndgamescene, which is set during Captain America and Iron Man’s segment of the Time Heist. In attempting to retrieve the Tesseract from the Battle of New York (the originalAvengersmovie), the pair accidentally lose it to Loki, with Iron Man temporarily losing hope in the plan. This is then tied into the failed mission sequence that appears inGrand Theft Auto 5.

Before the failure of the mission, there is text on theEndgamescene that is pulled from the same style as the aforementioned game. It describes the current goal as “pick up the Tesseract,” but after Loki disappears with it, the FAILED MISSION sequence appears over the scene, stating the “Tesseract was lost.” It’s uncertain if the dialogue fromGrand Theft Auto 5’s Michael was fully intended to make it into the scene, but it adds a nice touch.
Michael can be heard saying, “That wasn’t supposed to happen, was it?” as Tony Stark says, “Oh, we blew it.” The timing of thisAvengers EndgamexGrand Theft Autodialogue takes the overall edit to the next step, though it’s worth adding that this isn’t the first video game crossover the movie has had. Many will remember thatAvengers Endgamehad a crossover withFortnitein promotion of the movie’s release.
That isn’t all, either. Crystal Dynamics is currently working on a newAvengersvideo game set to be released in May 2020, with the developer recently givingAvengersfans a look at loot, ability upgrades, and customization.
