Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the highly anticipated follow-up to the Oscar-winning animated superhero film, is mere weeks away from release, and Fortnite is getting in on the excitement now. Spider-Mans Miles Morales and Miguel O’Hara (aka Spider-Man 2099) have joined the Fortnite roster, ushering in the return of Web-Shooters to the battle royale.
Spider-Man’s Web-Shooters get a new look and a new name: They are now called the Spider-Verse Web-Shooters, but they’ll let you web-sling through Fortnite just like the original ones.
Here’s a look at the new Miles Morales and Spider-Man 2099 cosmetics, and some representation from Spider-Ham (his cartoonish mallet):

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse arrives to theaters on June 2. Shameik Moore (Dope), Hailee Steinfeld (Hawkeye), and Jake Johnson (New Girl) reprise their roles as Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, and Peter B. Parker, respectively.
The cast will introduce multiple characters new to the franchise, including the aforementioned Spider-Man 2099 played by Oscar Isaac (Dune Part One), Spider-Woman, played by Issa Rae (Insecure), and the dimension-hopping supervillain the Spot, played by Jason Schwartzman (Rushmore). A second sequel, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, is scheduled for release on March 29, 2024. Expect even more details on the Fortnite crossover when Epic Games makes their big announcement on Tuesday.
