As Fortnite released the cinematic trailer of Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1, we got multiple sneak peeks into this new season. Apart from the Japanese aesthetics, some earthy figures were showcased in the teaser, including the giant turtle. Since the trailer launch, there have been multiple speculations about this creature. As Fortnite’s Chapter 6, Season 1 is already live, let us look at the Giant Turtle’s importance along with his probable locations on the new map.
What is the Giant Turtle in Fortnite?
It’s been a few weeks since Chapter 6, season 1 of Fortnite got released. With the new chapter, many new elements have been introduced in the gameplay. These include the sprites and boons that offer rewards to the players. Giant Turtle is another such element that has been introduced in the new chapter. Though it does not appear to do anything explicitly in the game, it has a secret quest associated with it. Let’s dive deeper into this secret quest and understand how it benefits the players.
As a part of Giant Turtle’s secret quest, the players first need to look for this figure on the map. On finding it, the players will find Ryuji, a non-playable character seeking the player’s help. As players explore the shell of the giant turtle, they have to destroy 5 Dark Magic Thrones. This can be done either by shooting or using a pickaxe. On destroying all these Dark Magic Thrones, the players have to return to Ryuji to receive their reward which is a loot from the RareChest. This NPC also sells a Rare Shotgun for 200 Gold currency. Also, if you have completed the Shotgun Expertise, he even offers you the mythical Oni Shotgun.
Where is the Giant Turtle located?
To participate in the quest, the players must know where to find the Giant Turtle on the map. This turtle is lost in the lush green forests of Feudal Japan. As players venture into this new map, the giant turtle can be found in the forest, northwest of Lost Lake, which is a POI in Fortnite. Catching sight of it is difficult as it seamlessly blends into the surroundings. An easy way to reach it is to go between Whiffy Wharf and Flooded Frogs locations.
Another way to confirm if you have reached the right location is to look for Ryuji who runs close to the Giant Turtle. This NPC has a chat bubble lingering over his head. Using him as a landmark can be a smart move to confirm the turtle’s location.
Benefits of the Giant Turtle
Though there are no direct benefits of the Giant Turtle, there is a lot that players can fetch by climbing onto his shell. You can climb up on his back by first jumping and then clicking the spacebar multiple times.
There are various chests available on his shell and in the region around him. You can find the Sprite Shrine, the Elemental Chest, and a launch pad close to him which will help you gear up for your next chase.
Summary
With the release of a new map in Fortnite’s Chapter 6, the gameplay has yet again intrigued gamers all around the globe. With several new elements added in a setting based in Feudal Japan, the Giant Turtle has caught most of the attention.
This Giant turtle located to the northwest of Lost Lake has a lot to offer to the gamers, even when it appears to be sleeping in the first look.
