In LEGO Fortnite, there are multiple ways to get a Crossbow. The first option is to chase the Firefly-like insect that leads you to the Llama's location, where you can pet it to get a ton of lucrative rewards, which sometimes consist of Crossbows.

Another way to obtain a Crossbow in the game is by opening Treasure and Storage Chests found around the Island. Lastly, you can also craft the Crossbow on an upgraded Crafting Bench.

Note: The Crossbow you see in the above screenshot was obtained by interacting with Llama.
