The Fortnite War Machine Arsenal is a new addition in the Marvel-themed season, featuring items inspired by the character War Machine. Among these items, the arsenal stands out as both useful and fun. Here’s everything you need to know about it.
How to Acquire the War Machine Arsenal in Fortnite
Currently, there are three ways to obtain War Machine’s Arsenal in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4. The most direct method is to open Avengers chests, which are larger than normal chests and bear the “A” logo. These chests can be found in various POIs:
- 6 possible spawns in The Underworld
- 5 in Grim Gate
- 5 in Rebel’s Roost
- 5 in Doomstadt
- 6 in The Raft
- 4 in Castle Doom
- 5 in Reckless Railways
- 5 in Grand Glacier

- 6 in Mount Olympus
- 5 in Brawler’s Battleground
- 5 in Redline Rig
- 6 in the Nitrodome
- 5 in Brutal Beachhead
- 5 in Sandy Steppes
Alternatively, you can find the arsenal in Weapon Crates or as a potential drop from Loot Island.
Using War Machine’s Arsenal
Once you have this powerful weapon, it’s essential to know how to utilize it effectively. The arsenal can launch rockets and fire bullets. The Arm Cannon (bullets) inflicts 16 damage on players with each hit, while the Rocket Salvo (explosives) deals 25 damage within its blast radius.
The arsenal can store up to eight rockets and 500 light bullets. Although it’s not infinite like other Mythic weapons, the ammo types are readily available to keep it well-supplied. Additionally, it excels at destroying structures.
The arsenal is just one component of the War Machine set in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 4, which also includes hover jets for flying and fast movement, as well as an auto turret that automatically fires at nearby targets.
