The Empire is wreaking havoc on Fortnite island once again. One of the latest Star Wars missions requires you to use a Bowcaster to defeat enemies, so here's how to find and use it in the Fortnite x Star Wars update.
All New Star Wars Mythics in Fortnite – Chapter 5 Season 2 (Lightsaber, Wookiee Bow Launcher)
You can find the Bowcaster in crates at Imperial outposts scattered across the Fortnite island. One of the outposts is always marked with blue smoke in every match. This is also where you can find and recruit Chewbacca.
There are multiple Imperial outposts, but they are not marked on the map. Here are the locations of all six outposts in the game:
Land at the outpost and enter a white tent. There you can find and loot the Imperial crates, which are black boxes with red stripes on the top. They also emit gold light, just like the normal Fortnite crate. The crate can drop either a Bowcaster or an E-11 Imperial blaster, so you’ll need to get lucky. But from what I’ve played, I’ve always gotten at least one Bowcaster from an outpost.
