Fortnite Season 4 Guide: Where To Find The F-O-R-T-N-I-T-E Letters

With the advent of season 4, Epic Games has graced us with all new weekly Battle Pass challenges. The first week has 2 trickier challengers that involve searching the main map, one of which is the F-O-R-T-N-I-T-E letter hunt. Below is a short guide explaining how the challenge works and the locations I’ve discovered so far.

 

How it works

The eight letters spell FORTNITE, appear as uppercase, bolded and are light blue (pictures below). They have spawns in both named areas (e.g. Tilted Towers, Wailing Woods, etc.) as well as non-named areas of interests. Once a letter is interacted with, it will disappear and that location will not spawn a letter in the same place next match. So each location is a one-shot deal.

The letters are usually situated outdoors and up high on the roof of structure (e.g. the clock tower in Tilted, the tower near Lucky Landing, etc.), though sometimes they may be found on ground level. Each letter is always obtained in the proper order as the game automatically moves on to the next letter required. This means you can visit any location in any order you feel fit. Additionally, there is no restriction on the amount of matches required and your progress doesn’t reset, so it can be done at your own pace and convenient.

There are more than eight letter spawn locations in total, this allows players to finish the challenge through regular and without having to visit every single location or go out of their way. Below is a map marked with all letter spawns I’ve encountered so far (so this most likely isn’t an exhaustive list). I have also included screenshots of each location a brief description of where to find them in each location.

 

Letter Locations

 

Anarchy Acres

This letter spawns on the roof of the red barn in the middle of Anarchy Acres. This appears as F3 on the main maps grid.

 

Container Yard

This location has no name, but is clearly a container yard. The letter spawns between the giant metal beams that run across the top of the yard. This appears on the border of H4 and H5 on the main maps grid.

 

Dusty Divot

This location is new, being part of the season 4 map changes (where the biggest meteor hit apparently). The letter spawns on top of the closest blue powerline to the east of Dusty Divot This appears as G5 the main maps grid.

 

Fabulous Factory

This location has no name – but is relatively large despite that – and is situated northeast of Flush Factory. The letter spawns on the northernmost building on the roof of a large rectangular factory with a dance floor inside. This appears as E9 on the main maps grid.

 

Greasy Grove

This letter spawns in the northwest corner of Greasy Grove in the playground area. This appears as B6 on the mains maps grid.

 

Haunted Hills

This letter spawns in the centre of Haunted Hills on top of a gravestone of decorated with a golden eagle. This appears as B2 on the mains maps grid.

 

Lonely Mansion

This location is also unnamed, but is new to season 4. So I’m dubbing it the ‘Lonely Mansion’ (not witty enough for alliteration), due to its locale. The letter spawns on the highest point of its roof. This appears on the border of J5 and J6 on the main maps grid.

 

Lucky Landing

This letter spawns slightly outside of Lucky Landing. A single large tower sits to the northeast of the town, it spawns on the top of it. This appears as G9 on the main maps grid.

 

Moisty Mire

Moisty Mire has undergone a bit of a rework and now has a film studio in it. This letter spawns on the southeast side of the studio, on top of a tree trunk, next to a helicopter and situated in front of a giant green screen. This appears as I9 on the main map’s grid.

 

Pleasant Park

This letter spawns in the direct centre of Pleasant Park on the pergola. This appears as C3 on the main maps grid.

 

Risky Reels

Risky Reels is a new location on the map situated above Tomato Town and Wailing Woods. The letter spawns in the huge hole on the top outdoor cinema screen. This appears on the line of H3 and H2 on the main maps grid.

 

Salty Springs

This letter appears slightly outside of Salty Springs on the roof of the watchtower on the cliff east of Salty Springs. This appears as G7 on the main maps grid.

 

Snobby Shores

This letter appears in the northernmost house of Snobby Shores in the driveway. This appears as A5 on the main maps grid.

 

Tilted Towers

This letter spawns on top of the clock tower located on the south west side of Tilted Towers. This appears as D6 on the main maps grid.

 

Triangle Trees

This place has no name. It is located directly west of the ‘Trolley Track’ and southeast of Retail Row. It has a small 1 by 1 hut in the centre surrounded by small ‘Christmas’ trees in a triangle pattern; the letter is on the roof of the hut. This appears as I6 on the main maps grid.

 

Wailing Woods

The letter spawns in the centre of the hedge maze on the top of the wooden pergola. This appears as I3 on the main maps grid.

Once you’ve visited 8 of the letter locations and interacted with the letters, the challenge will be marked as complete in your log.

This, in conjunction with the Tomato Town treasure map, are the two trickier Battle Pass challenges for the week. If you’re looking for assistance with that challenge, check our guide here. With those done you can just dak-dak your way through the rest with regular gameplay (pistol kills, sniper damage, etc.) to get your sweet, sweet Battle Pass rewards. Which, in my opinion, look really meteoric this season!
