How to Craft Weapons in Fortnite

To craft any weapon or item in Fortnite, simply open your inventory by pressing Up on the d-pad on consoles, or pressing I on PC.

Now, select the ‘Crafting’ tab on the window that appears.

You should now see a list of weapons and items that you can craft/ upgrade. These will also list any crafting materials, such as Animal Bones and Mechanical Parts and how many of them you’ll need to craft the weapon or item selected.

As long as you’ve got the required materials, simply press X on Xbox One, Square on PlayStation, Y on Switch or E on PC to craft the weapon or item.

A quick 3-second animation will then play out of your character crafting the item, before it appears in your inventory.

All manner of different weapons and items can be crafted in Fortnite by combining different items.

For example, combining 6 Grenades with a Mechanical Bow can make a Mechanical Explosive Bow, which launches three small bombs on impact.
