Spider-Man has officially joined Fortnite Chapter 2 and people have been impressed at how smoothly Spider-Man swings around with his webs.
The friendly neighborhood superhero was introduced into Fortnite this past weekend as the game transitioned to Chapter 3, Season 1. New, Spider-Man-specific mechanics were introduced where players can now slide and even swing to imitate Spider-Man's movements.
As you can see from the clip below, Peter Parker's webs attach to buildings rather than just magically sticking to some nebulous spot in the air, providing a more realistic depiction of traversal. There's a real sense of height that makes the web-swinging feel thrilling.

Additionally, the momentum and direction at which he swings look great as well. He can also mimic web surfing by shooting a web behind a car and letting it drive off, pulling him forward. The web-slinging is popular enough that starting on December 11, any character, regardless of if they have the Spider-Man skin, will be able to web-swing.
Fortnite's version of Spider-Man has been compared to his portrayal in recent games, such as Insomniac's Marvel's Spider-Man and Square Enix's Marvel's Avengers. Particularly, as the latter's Spider-Man seems to have a rather lackluster web traversal.
In Avengers, Spider-Man effectively swings from a glass ceiling and doesn't seem to gain as much time in the air since the game is primarily designed around open fields. Now, Fornite arrives as the third challenger and it looks like people are satisfied with the game's implementation of the web-slinging hero.
It's also interesting to note that this is probably the only way that Xbox or PC owners will be able to play as Spider-Man in a modern game, as both Insomniac's game and the Spider-Man content in Marvel's Avengers are exclusive to Sony's platform (although Switch owners can play as Spider-Man in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3).
Check out our full breakdown of what's new in Fortnite Chapter 3. In other Spider-Man news, Insomniac Games has announced that two new suits inspired by Spider-Man: No Way Home are coming to PS5's Spier-Man Remastered.
