The Field Hunter crossbow is a weapon from Fortnite, the battle royale by Epic Games. Like many Fortnite weapon sounds, its firing audio was pulled from gameplay and shared on soundboards because it is short, clean and instantly recognisable to players. Clips of crossbow eliminations and loadout showcases helped it spread among editors making montages and memes. It remains in use as a quick, punchy weapon cue that signals a Fortnite crossbow play without needing any visuals.
