Goo is taking over Fortnite. The Fortnite Chapter 3: Season 4 cinematic, which premiered on Sunday, shows that Kromgoo is spreading across the island, and it looks like it will take some multidimensional shenanigans to set things right. This is the ideal season for Spider-Gwen from the Spider-Verse to debut in Fortnite.
The Gwen skin available in the Season 4 Battle Pass looks great and includes some nice Spider-Verse touches like the back glitter 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 of him without the film’s fake 2D touch.
However, the season also includes a new character skin, Griz, which is even better than Spider-Gwen, so forgive me for that. It’s controlled with a game controller. Is Grizz the name of a small bear, or is Grizz a name shared by an amalgamation of two bears as one being? I’m sure there’s some lore that explains why it seems angry, but I really don’t want to know.

The chrome theme, on the other hand, seems to add some pretty cool gimmicks to Fortnite’s combat. You can This is a big change for shootouts in Build Mode in Fortnite.
Parts of the map are airborne with balloons to fend off goo, and sniper rifles have been beefed up across the board this season. For more information on the season, fortnite blog.
