Does Thor's new hammer, the Stormbreaker, have the same "worthiness" enchantment

Stormbreaker does not appear to have the same worthiness enchantments that Mjolnir, its predecessor, has. However, when Thor, Rocket, and Groot leave the rest of the Guardians to create it, Star-Lord asks why everyone shouldn’t have a weapon capable of killing Thanos. Thor replies that a weapon of such power cannot be wielded by someone of lesser power than Thor. So, it’s less a “worthiness” requirement as much as it is that if someone less powerful tried to use it, it would destroy the user. black canary costumes
It certainly amplifies Thor’s powers. With Mjolnir, Thor had to spin the hammer and hold onto the strap to fly. Thor is seen floating with Stormbreaker in his hand. thea queen cosplay

Thor: Ragnarok establishes that the lightning powers come from Thor himself. It’s unknown whether Stormbreaker has any inherent lightning powers itself, but as said above it does augment Thor’s natural powers. One ability it has that doesn’t come from Thor is that Stormbreaker allows Thor access to the Bifrost, without the use of the Bifrost Bridge, allowing him to travel between the realms with no other equipment needed. red arrow costumes
