Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 has transformed the island into a criminal playground where heists and underground operations reign supreme. Among the most valuable tools in your arsenal are SHADOW Briefings—those computer terminals scattered across the map that offer quick rewards for those brave enough to accept their missions.
These mini-challenges have been a staple since Chapter 5, but with Epic Games reshuffling the map for the new “Lawless” theme, even veteran players might find themselves wandering aimlessly in search of these lucrative opportunities.
All Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 SHADOW Briefing Locations
Finding SHADOW Briefings in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 isn’t as straightforward as locating named POIs. There are 21 potential spawn points (marked in the map above) across the island, but only about 15 will appear in any given match. They’re marked as computer symbols on your mini-map when you’re nearby—a subtle detail that rewards observant players.
The terminals are scattered across the map, from Hopeful Heights to the remote corners of Flooded Frogs. Popular spots include Seaport City, Shiny Shafts, and Demon’s Dojo, but don’t sleep on less-trafficked areas like Magic Mosses or Canyon Crossing. The randomization keeps each match fresh, forcing players to adapt rather than follow the same loot path every game.
Unlike the Job Boards from earlier seasons, these terminals don’t broadcast their presence from afar—you’ll need to get close to spot them. This design choice perfectly complements the season’s underground theme: information is power, and it’s not given freely!
How to Complete All SHADOW Briefings
Once you’ve located a terminal, simply approach and interact with it to see what mission awaits. Each terminal offers one of three mission types, each with its own risk-reward profile.
Here’s what you need to know about each SHADOW Briefing type:
- Armory: These missions task you with dealing damage using a specific weapon. Complete the challenge within five minutes to earn 100 Gold Bars—perfect for funding your next Black Market shopping spree.
- Plunder: Follow the markers on your map to locate and dig up two Rare chests. The journey might be dangerous, but the specialized loot makes it worthwhile for players who prefer quality over quantity.
- Supply Drop: Perhaps the most straightforward option, these missions call in a Supply Drop at a marked location. The catch? Everyone can see it falling, turning the drop zone into a potential ambush point.
The five-minute timer adds just enough pressure to keep things interesting without feeling unfair. Our advice? Don’t accept a mission unless you’re done with looting the area and prepared to commit with your best loadout. After all, there’s nothing worse than watching the timer expire just as you’re about to complete your objective.
