There are multiple ways you can get your hands on this Fortnite weapon throughout the in-game Star Wars celebrations, but we strongly advise being prepared with Shields and a fast-firing weapon before you go looking for it. You won't be the only one searching for this item so watch your back.

Without further ado, we're here to show you how to get the Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite.

How to get Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite

The best way to ensure you get a Wookie Bowcaster in Fortnite is to rescue Chewbacca who gives it you as a reward for freeing him. If that doesn't work, as his position constantly changes, then head to a Stormtrooper Roadblock and look around there for it to spawn as ground loot.

You can also find the Bowcaster in Imperial Chests and take it from downed players who had it in their inventory.

If you're struggling to find a Stormtrooper Roadblock then we recommend sticking to the main roads near major points of interest like Snooty Steppes and Pleasant Plaza. Also, if you're looking in one of these roadblocks we've found that the Bowcaster typically spawns inside the tents rather than on the road.
