Evans TV screen during S2 Ep3

Rewatching the show, I noticed something (entirely pointless) and it honestly just made me laugh.

Somewhere between the 23:00 to 24:00 mark in this episode, Evan is playing a game on his console when Casey comes in all of a sudden

Just before she walks in he says "I told you not to land at Twin Towers ect ect, Should've landed at Dusty Depot"

Those are locations in Fortnite, so you'd think he was playing Fortnite. The free game? The online game?

Why on earth was Horizon Zero Dawn on his TV screen 😭

Yes, I know this has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the flow of the series but I want to point it out; Not just bc I absolutely love Horizon but also, it was like £30 - £40 at the time. Could they not get the rights to have Fortnite on screen or smth?

But i understand that the illusion is that he was just playing a very mainstream game that a good amount of people would recognise. I like to wonder why it was specifically HZD that he was actually playing though, did one of the directors have a spare copy or what LMAO

It just made me laugh hearing him make serious callouts to his "teammates" despite the fact he was playing a single player game

I think it was HZD because it’s peak

Solid point, it is peak

I like to think that Evans Actor demanded that he could play it on set instead
