After four long months, Fortnite finally released another big content update in the form of Chapter 2 Season 2. In this season, one of the biggest new features is vaults. Vaults contain large amounts of great loot that will give you an excellent chance at winning that coveted victory royale. Here are all of the vault locations and how you can unlock them.
There is a vault located at each of Fortnite’s five new locations. This includes The Yacht, The Grotto, The Rig, The Shark, and The Agency. That being said, finding these vaults within each location isn’t always a simple task, and unlocking them will take even more work.
The Yacht
First off, The Yacht is located at the northeast corner of the map, just off the coast of Steamy Stacks. Once aboard The Yacht, watch out for the henchmen NPCs, which will take aim at you on sight. You’ll want to head to the northern end of The Yacht, and enter the phone booth. Once you do that, you’ll receive a disguise, which will prevent enemy turrets from attacking you.
This disguise also allows you to unlock weapon caches, which are containers holding rare loot in each of the game’s vaults. First, you’ll need to take down Meowscles, the buff kitty cat and boss who can be found in the main room on The Yacht. Meowscles shouldn’t give you too much trouble, and will drop The Yacht Keycard. This will grant you access to the vault room, located on the Yacht’s lower deck.
You can follow this same process for the other four locations as well.
The Grotto
At The Grotto, located on the eastern portion of the map, use the phone booth at the edge of the water for a disguise, then take down Brutus, the burly bald boss who can be found wielding a mini gun near the northern end of the location. He’ll drop The Grotto Keycard, which will allow you to unlock the vault nearby.
The Rig
The Rig is located off the southwest coast of the island, and it’s essentially a giant oil rig. You can find this location’s boss, TNTina, wandering around near the central area. She’ll drop a rare Boom Bow, as well as The Rig Keycard. You can use this card to open up the vault, which is located in the northern end of the location, inside one of the rig’s support legs.
The Shark
The Shark is located at the northwestern edge of Fortnite’s map. It’s an island consisting of a secret hideout built on top of a shark-shaped rock – pretty cool right? You’ll need to take down another boss, named Skye, who wanders around the area. Once defeated, she will drop a gold assault rifle, and The Shark Keycard, which unlocks the vault located in the basement. Then, you can grab a boat docked in the shark’s mouth for a quick getaway.
The Agency
Finally, the most difficult vault to unlock is at The Agency. The Agency’s boss, Midas, will be wandering throughout the area and never settles in a single spot. He’s also much more difficult to take down, so make sure there aren’t any henchmen around before you attack. Once you’ve killed Midas, pick up his golden drum gun and The Agency Keycard, then head to the building’s basement to unlock the vault.
And that’s how to find all five new vaults in Fortnite and how to unlock each one. Hit up one of these per game, and if you’re successful, you’re guaranteed to have some excellent weapons in your arsenal.
