Spider-Man is heading back to Fortnite, and this time Epic Games has said so itself. After weeks of leaks and datamines, the developer dropped an official teaser on July 21 confirming a Spider-Man: Brand New Day crossover is on the way. The tease is small but deliberate, and it lines up neatly with the film’s theatrical release.
The teaser shows The Battlewoods point of interest covered in webs, with a Spider-Man mural on display. Epic paired the clip with a short caption noting the webs look familiar. That is all Epic has officially shown so far, so most of what follows is expectation and must be taken with a pinch of salt.
What Epic Has Actually Confirmed About the Spider-Man Collab
Epic has confirmed the collab exists and teased a map location. It has not revealed a single skin, price, or item. The webbing over The Battlewoods strongly suggests the Web Shooters Mythic is returning to the loot pool. Longtime players will recognise the setup.
The original Spider-Man crossover in Chapter 3 Season 1 hid Web Shooters around the Daily Bugle, and datamines point to Epic reviving that idea around The Battlewoods this season.

Fortnite are running hot with cosmetics especially with their recent DC swimwear controversy and leaks. Since cosmetics surface a day or two before they appear in the shop, so fans should keep their fingers crossed while going through the rumoured skins below.
Which Spider-Man: Brand New Day Skins Could Arrive in Fortnite
On skins, everything is still speculation, but the speculation is still pretty reasonable. Alongside the obvious movie-suit Spider-Man outfit, leaks suggest Epic could add Jon Bernthal’s Punisher and possibly a Hulk skin, both tied to characters appearing in the film. This, of course, at the moment is a much anticipated speculation, pending official confirmation.
The more interesting leak is the Spider-Man Sprite. Dataminers claim it will let players web-swing using the Web Shooters, which would be a genuine movement addition rather than a cosmetic. If accurate, that is the piece most likely to change how the season actually plays. It also fits Epic’s recent focus on Sprites as a headline feature this chapter.

For the film tie-in context, Spider-Man: Brand New Day releases July 31, 2026, with Tom Holland returning and a darker story involving a mutation to Peter Parker’s powers. The one-day gap between the Fortnite drop and the movie is the clearest signal that the two launches are coordinated.
Why the July 30 Fortnite Update Timing Points to Spider-Man
All of the collab content is expected with the next major Fortnite update on July 30, one day before the film opens. Epic and Disney have a long history of syncing crossover cosmetics to a release, and this pattern is about as consistent as anything in the game’s calendar.

Reporting on the teaser and the expected date has been led by outlet coverage including Beebom, which tracked the mural through the v41.20 update. The mural itself, showing Spidey fighting a member of The Hand, was in the game before Epic’s official teaser, which is why the collab was an open secret well before confirmation.
A notable angle in this is that this Spider-Man crossover appears smaller than usual, built around a Sprite rather than a full skin lineup, which some have linked to a separate leaked DC collab landing in the same window. If both arrive close together, it would be an unusual move, since Epic normally keeps its Marvel and DC tie-ins well apart. That is something fans should watch out for until July 30.
