In an exciting turn of events for Fortnite players, the legendary Godzilla has made a grand entrance into the game, offering a unique experience as a playable boss capable of stampeding across the map.
Transforming into this colossal creature grants players access to formidable abilities, allowing them to raze cities and obliterate rivals. But there’s a catch—you need to be the first one to leap through a specific portal to assume this mighty avatar. This might sound straightforward, but it’s a bit of a chase since the portal spawns randomly, making it a race against other players with the same goal.
Here’s everything you need to know about tracking down and becoming Godzilla in Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1.
### When and Where to Spot Godzilla in Fortnite
To step into Godzilla’s massive shoes, you’ll need to spot and dive into a portal before anyone else. Complicating matters, this portal doesn’t appear in every match. In fact, it only has about a 20% chance of showing up, according to reports from HYPEX. This statistic aligns with our own findings from the launch day of this feature.
If fate is on your side and the portal does appear, it will show up unpredictably as the first Storm Circle begins to shrink. You’ll recognize the moment when a security alert boxes across the lower half of your screen, advising you that the “Godzilla Portal is open” and pinging its exact location.
Your map will also help; it marks the portal’s position with a distinctive Godzilla icon.
Given the portal’s early-game appearance, time is of the essence, particularly if it spawns some distance away. With most players still in the game, reaching it swiftly may be challenging. If it seems like a stretch, your best strategy might be to stockpile ammunition with the aim of taking Godzilla down if someone else beats you to it.
Take note of the two quests that involve inflicting damage on Godzilla:
The trick to maximizing your damage output lies in targeting the glowing spikes along Godzilla’s back. These weak points offer extra damage, helping you climb the damage leaderboard. You can track your progress via the “Damage Inflicted” bar visible beneath Godzilla’s health bar.
### How to Play as Godzilla in Fortnite
Upon successfully stepping through the portal, you’ll become Godzilla, complete with three potent abilities.
However, if abilities aren’t quite your style, you can always resort to simply stomping over other players for damage—sometimes simple is effective!
