One of the most popular games of all time just added one of the more popular superheroes of all time. Online shooter Fortnite has entered Chapter 3, which adds a complete map overhaul, new gameplay features, and a big new update to the game’s wacky storyline.

Oh and we’re also getting a new battle pass and two new playable characters, The Foundation (voiced by Dwayne Johnson) and Spider-Man.

The map is now home to three extremely different biomes. The western half of the island has been covered in snow, including Greasy Grove and Logjam Lumberyard. The east side is a tropical island, and features Spider-Man’s Daily Bugle building and a statue of The Foundation. The south is a desert with a new speedway.

New gameplay features include sliding and swinging. Everyone can now slide down hills by holding the crouch button, letting them shoot and evade fire at top speed. In order to swing you’ll need to grab Spider-Man’s web-shooters, a new item that allows you to swing on buildings like the web-slinger himself.

Other additions include tents to heal and stash items in, a crown that shows off your wins, and daily, season, and milestone quests now obtained in the main lobby.

Find the full list of changes and features on the Epic website. Fortnite is available on PC (Win, Mac), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. It’s rated T for Teen.
