Where to find the secret cave in Fortnite

Every time Fortnite changes up the map, it becomes a whole new experience when checking out the new points of interest (POIs) and best places to land. With chapter 5 bringing some of the most dramatic changes in the map’s history, a ton of secrets are out there on the island waiting to be discovered, such as a very lucrative cave. Those who have managed to wander into this hidden alcove have been rewarded with a huge stash of loot, making it a well-guarded secret among those in the know. We can’t guarantee you’ll survive long enough to grab all the valuables inside, but knowing where the secret cave is will at least give you and your squad a fighting chance.

The secret cave is tucked along the eastern coast of the map to the northeast of Hazeyhills and southeast of Grand Glacier as seen on the map above.

Go down the coast and into the cave opening, where you will see the glow of three chests (assuming no other players got there first) in the first area. There’s one chest further in, but if you break the wall behind it, you can actually find two more. This is another false dead end, and by breaking the boulder beyond these chests, you can enter the final part of the cave with the last of the chests, as well as the singing Coral Buddies!

Fortnite Godzilla Evolved skin

Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1 is officially out, and it brings a new Japanese-themed island, full of different biomes and a whopping 18 unique POIs, each proving to be a promising landing spot for players to choose from. The season also revamps the entire loot pool and adds new weapons such as Katanas, Hitscan guns, Oni Masks, and so on.

But something that was most well-received by players was this season's Battle Pass, which was full of original characters who are cosmetic outfits. However, despite that the new Fortnite season has also introduced a massive collab with the King of Monsters, Godzilla, where players can easily claim the skin and will soon witness the beast himself on the island.

Epic Games just gave Fortnite veterans the best gift: permanent OG mode
Fortnite OG Key Art

If you're a long-time Fortnite player who can't stop asking where Tilted Towers disappeared to, this update is for you. Epic is bringing back Fortnite OG -- this time, for good. The game mode will cycle through the game's first season and let players revisit their favorite locations and loot just as they remember it from way back in 2017.

And when Epic Games says it's going back, it means all the way back. The mode will initially go through the seasons of Chapter 1, including all the loot changes and feature introductions. Think of it something like a crash course in the evolution of Fortnite; you can experience it just as players did back then and learn as you go. As a veteran of those early battle royale years, I can promise it was a vastly different experience than it is now.
