Goo is taking over Fortnite. The cinematic for Fortnite Chapter 3: Season 4, which premiered on Sunday, shows a chrome goo spreading across the island, and it looks like it’s going to take some multiverse shenanigans to set things right. That makes this the ideal season for Spider-Gwen from Into the Spider-Verse to make her Fortnite debut, then.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Gwen’s skin, available with the Season 4 battle pass, looks great, and includes some neat Spider-Verse touches like a back bling comic panel that shimmers back and forth. Sadly Epic didn’t copy Spider-Verse’s unique animation style, so Gwen moves around like a standard 3D model without the movie’s faux-2D touches.<\/p>\n

I’m willing to forgive that, though, because the season also comes with a new character skin, Grriz, that is even better than Spider-Gwen. Grriz is, as far as I can tell, a small bear piloting a larger bear (which is made out of goo) with a game controller. Is Grriz the small bear’s name, or is Grriz the name that the amalgam of the two bears share as one being? I assume there’s some lore that explains why Big Grriz is made of goo and why Small Grriz looks so angry to be playing Fortnite, but I don’t really want to know. Grriz is excellent just as he is.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the chrome theme seems to be adding some pretty cool gimmicks to Fortnite’s combat. You can hit yourself with a “chrome splash” to turn into a speedy amorphous blob, or splash a wall to pass right through it, which is really going to change up firefights in Fortnite’s build mode.<\/p>\n

Some parts of the map have now gone airborne with balloons to dodge the goo, and sniper rifles have gotten an across-the-board buff this season. You can read more about the season on the Fortnite blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n
