Avengers infinity war thor new hammer

In Avengers: Infinity War, Thor's new hammer is not actually a hammer, but rather a new weapon he wields called Stormbreaker.

Stormbreaker is a powerful axe that Thor forges in the realm of the Eitri, a dwarf who is a master craftsman. The axe is made from the metal of the Eitri's own hammer, which was destroyed by Surtur in Thor: Ragnarok.

Stormbreaker is a significant upgrade from Mjolnir, Thor's previous hammer, which was destroyed by Hela in Thor: Ragnarok. Stormbreaker has a number of unique abilities, including the power to summon the elements and to channel the power of the storm.

Thor uses Stormbreaker to fight against Thanos and his army in Avengers: Infinity War, and it plays a key role in the battle. Despite its power, however, Stormbreaker is ultimately unable to stop Thanos from obtaining the Infinity Stones and using them to wipe out half of all life in the universe.

It's worth noting that Stormbreaker is not just a weapon, but also a symbol of Thor's growth and development as a character. In Thor: Ragnarok, Thor was forced to confront his own limitations and the fact that he was no longer the same god he once was. In Avengers: Infinity War, he uses Stormbreaker to channel his newfound humility and to fight for the greater good.
