Spider-Man's web shooters have made a comeback in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3, coinciding with the release of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day." This popular traversal item allows players to swing across the map by targeting surfaces like trees and buildings, providing an essential mobility advantage for outrunning the storm or quickly reaching new locations.
Acquiring the web shooters requires more than simply opening chests. Players will need to seek out specific Spider-Man-themed accessories scattered throughout the island. There are currently two primary methods to obtain the web shooters.
One method involves purchasing them directly from a Spider-Man vendor. This character is expected to appear at a location called The Battlewoods and will offer the web shooters for 2,000 gold bars. While initial reports suggest the vendor may not be present at the start of the season, details will be updated as they become available.
Alternatively, players can find Spider-Man backpacks, distinguished by their web design, attached to walls across the map. These backpacks are not guaranteed to spawn in every match but tend to appear in consistent locations. Landing at named points of interest is recommended for players actively searching for these items. For instance, one backpack has been observed on top of a triangular building at Shaken Sanctuary, and another can be found on a second-floor balcony within the building featuring a Spider-Man mural at The Battlewoods.
The return of the web shooters offers a significant boost to player mobility, enhancing traversal strategies and combat opportunities within the current season.
