Fiend Hunter Crossbow is an Epic bow in Battle Royale. It is well-suited for defeating Cube Monsters and Ice Monsters, because it deals extra damage to them, has infinite ammunition, and makes less noise than a firearm. It deals almost no damage to structures, only Supply Drops. Aiming with the Fiend Hunter Crossbow is similar to the Hunting Rifle, being very zoomed. The Fiend Hunter Crossbow uses a unique Ammo type, Arrows, which are infinite and cannot be found or held in the player's inventory. It has a x1.5 headshot multiplier.

In Patch 14.40, the Fiend Hunter Crossbow was Unvaulted for the Fortnitemares: Midas Revenge, and its Base Damage was increased from 40 to 50, now dealing 75 headshot damage.

The Fiend Hunter Crossbow is also available in Team Terror, Fortnitemares, Fog of War/Sneaky Silencers, Ice Storm, and Arsenal and Creative Mode.

On Patch 14.5, The Fiend Hunter Crossbow was vaulted due to Fortnitemares: Midas Revenge ending.
