Fortnite's Halloween event Fortnitemares has returned for 2023. During Fortnitemares this year, players have a lot of special quests and missions that they can tackle for the duration of the event.

Not only are there new quests to check out, but a bunch of new and returning weapons as well. Thorne's Vampiric Blade is appearing for the first time in Fortnite and, on top of that, the Pumpkin Launcher is returning as well. Here, we are going to talk about how players can get their hands on the Pumpkin Launcher in Fortnite.

The Pumpkin Launcher in Fortnite is a weapon with Epic rarity in Fortnite. The Pumpkin Launcher is not like the Legendary Thorne's Vampiric Blade, which tend to have a fixed location where they spawn. Epic weapons like the Pumpkin Launcher do not have a fixed spawn point.

That means players will need a bit of luck to find this creepy rocket launcher. The Pumpkin Launcher will spawn on the ground, in regular and Rare Chests, Holo-Chests, and even on flying drones. To put it simply, the Pumpkin Launcher spawns pretty randomly in Fortnite right now but, since it is an epic weapon, it should not be too difficult to find.

How To Use The Pumpkin Launcher In Fortnite

The Pumpkin Launcher is actually an unvaulted weapon. That means if players have used the Pumpkin Launcher in the past, it should feel the same as it did before. So, experience will definitely be helpful. But if you have handled nearly any standard rocket launcher in the past, you will be set to use the Pumpkin Launcher.

The Pumpkin Launcher is essentially a standard rocket launcher. The difference is that instead of rockets players will launch pumpkins that will scream and explode. The Pumpkin Launcher is good for flushing out opponents from cover and is especially good at destroying player builds. It also does a good job destroying cover as well, making fights a lot easier to handle.
