It looks like the new content being revealed at PAX West for Fortnite just keeps coming, with OpTic CouRage taking a moment to talk about the upcoming Wild Card cosmetics that are arriving with the High Stakes event. While much of the discussion centered around the outfits and the accompanying back bling and glider, he also took a moment to announce that a new item would be revealed tomorrow, simply named “The Grappler”.

There have been leaks and hints in the past about a grappling hook item possibly coming to the game, but this is the first confirmation that we’ll actually get to see what the item is and how it handles in game. We’ve seen mobility items come into the game previously in the form of “Backpack items”, such as the Jet Pack, however there’s no real indication just yet if this will handle the same.

Regardless, the inclusion of an item such as a grappling hook is sure to shake up the game, if player mobility is suddenly given a massive boost. With the imminent release of Spider-Man on the PlayStation 4 also coming in a few days, we can only imagine the chaos if suddenly players were zipping around the map and up structures.
