After a significant delay, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is finally coming to theaters in a few weeks. Fortnite has revealed its collaboration with the film, bringing Miles Morales and Miguel O’Hara into the game.

Besides the incoming characters, GameInformer also reports that the game has also re-skinned Spider-Man’s web-shooters, and they’re now called ‘Spider-Verse Web-Shooters’; this change comes with some new Spider-Man-themed quests that will have the web-shooters come in handy if you want to fulfill any of them.
With the movie teasing an endless variety of Spider-People, it would be great if the game could accommodate more Spider-Man customization. Still, I guess that would require a lot of work with the developers, and Across the Spider-Verse isn’t like an Avengers: Endgame-level event to the general audience.
That being said, I am excited about the film, and I can’t wait to see just how much they’ve expanded on the Spider-Verse lore. It was kind of amazing how they managed to pull off Into the Spider-Verse in the first place, and we can only expect this multi-verse to keep growing as the movies come along.
One thing’s for sure, the MCU has some serious competition when it comes to pulling off a multiverse story, and with all the rumors of them possibly losing Kang actor Jonathan Majors, Spider-Verse is taking an enormous lead.
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse comes to cinemas on June 2. Fortnite is now playable for PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4|5, and the Nintendo Switch.
