CB
COMICBOOK.COMFortnite's jumping on the Spider-Man: Brand New Day hype train with special Power Hour events that boost Cube Sprite odds and bring back the Web Shooter weapon. Epic Games is leveraging the film's theatrical momentum to drive engagement, which has become standard practice for major Marvel releases. The crossover feels like a natural fit given Fortnite's history of comic book collaborations. It's a smart move to capture both players who caught the movie and longtime Fortnite fans hunting for limited cosmetics.
