In Avengers: Infinity War (2018), it is further explained by Wong and Stephen Strange that each Infinity Stone embodies and controls an essential aspect of existence. In Guardians of the Galaxy (2014), the Collector explains that the Infinity Stones are the remnants of six singularities that existed before the Big Bang, which were compressed into Stones by cosmic entities after the universe began and which were dispersed throughout the cosmos. The existence of the Infinity Stones has been described as the "one driving force that unifies all the robot-alien-hero fighting". The Infinity Stones are based on the Infinity Gems from Marvel Comics. They play a significant role in the first three phases (also called the " Infinity Saga") of the MCU, including being the MacGuffins of the films Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
