The Fortnite Star Wars event that many players have been waiting for has finally been released. During this event, as before, we will be able to use many Star Wars Mythic Weapons and see characters like Darth Vader, Chewbacca, and Stormtroopers. Who knows, we might even see more different Star Wars NPCs in the future. One of the Mythic Weapons that can be found in Fortnite is the Bowcaster, Chewbacca’s iconic weapon. Now, let’s find out where and how we can find this weapon.

Where To Find Chewbacca’s Bowcaster in Fortnite

The best way to find Bowcaster in Fortnite is to rescue Chewbacca from Stormtroopers. When the Star Wars event started, Stormtroopers began invading the Fortnite map and closed some roads with outposts.

When you go to one of these outposts, you can find Chewbacca fighting Stormtroopers there. When you kill the Stormtroopers and save Chewbacca, he will reward you with a Bowcaster in Fortnite. He will then start to follow you and fight alongside you in battles with other players.

If you can’t find Chewbacca, no problem, these outposts have different black and large chests which do not look like normal Fortnite chests. These are called Imperial Chests and you can find them in the Stormtrooper outposts. You can also get Bowcasters from these Imperial Chests in Fortnite.

Here is a summary of getting Bowcaster in Fortnite:

  • Go to Stormtrooper Outposts in different parts of the map and rescue Chewbacca. Chewbacca will reward you with a Bowcaster.
  • Again, in the Stormtrooper Outposts, -if you can’t find Chewbacca, look for the black Imperial Chests inside the tents, and you will find a Bowcaster inside them.
  • Finally, you can get a Bowcaster by eliminating another player who has already managed to get a Bowcaster using one of these two methods.
