Columbia's AC/DC has provided the soundtrack to a Fortnite/Marvel event that saw a record-breaking 15.3m concurrent players battle Galactus to determine the fate of the universe as AC/DC's "Demon Fire" played in every user's Battle Bus.
Marvel heroes Thor and Iron Man made cameos in the star-studded event, which was also viewed on YouTube and Twitch by more than three million fans watching live. Fortnite declared the mission to defeat Galactus their biggest event ever.
Get a taste of the action from the driver's seat of a Battle Bus.
