How to Swing in Fortnite Chapter 3

The long awaited Fortnite Chapter 3 is set to release very soon. This new part of the ongoing Fortnite saga will bring many changes and additions to the game – as is the custom. Besides the usual mix of new weapons and place, there are a couple of standout inclusions to the Fortnite formula this time around. One of these is that the game will apparently get updated to the Unreal Engine 5. Fortnite previously used to run on Unreal Engine 3, so this is a pretty big change. The other new thing, which we’ll discuss in today’s guide, is the inclusion of new mobility maneuvers. These are sliding and swinging, and this guide will answer the question of How to Swing in Fortnite Chapter 3.

How to Use Swing in Fortnite Chapter 3

To be able to use the new Swing mobility maneuver in Fortnite Chapter 3, you will need to get a hold of Spider-Man’s Web-Shooters. When you have these, this will then enable you to swing across buildings. These, according to Epic Games, also include the Daily Bugle. This is the place where Spider-Man’s real life persona, Peter Parker, works as a freelance photojournalist – usually attempting to sell of his photos (or should those be selfies?) of Spider-Man to Daily Bugle editor-in-chief J. Jonah Jameson. If you have ever seen a Spider-Man movie before, then you already know how this web-swinging will look like in action.

The other move that you will be able to utilize soon is sliding. You can activate this by hitting the same button (or key) as the crouch command. The only difference is that you will need to press this key while you are moving. If performed correctly, your character will enter a sliding animation. During that maneuver, you will still be able to shoot and to build, so it will no doubt be a very interesting and useful move to pull off in the heat of battle.
