Fortnite has refreshed the wide array of SHADOW Briefings available for Chapter 6 Season 2, so here are all the new locations you can find them.
These challenges were first introduced in Chapter 5 Season 2, and they’ve been a part of the Fortnite furniture ever since. They can be found all over the Battle Royale island during the Absolute Doom season, and there’s a brand-new Armory version this time around.
Each Briefing offers different services and is also vital for completing quests. Below is every map location where you can find SHADOW Briefings and the services they offer in Fortnite.

How to accept and complete a SHADOW Briefing
To accept a SHADOW Briefing, head to any of the terminals listed above on the map, interact with the terminal, and select Accept.
A timer will start, and you’ll need to complete a specific task within that time. Finish the task before time runs out to complete the Briefing and earn your rewards.
The first Wanted: Midas quest requires you to “Complete a SHADOW Briefing to earn Midas’ trust.” To complete this, simply land at a location with one of the terminals right after dropping from the Battle Bus at the start of a Battle Royale match.

Completing the quest rewards you with 30K XP and progresses you through the storyline to unlock the next available quest
Best strategy
The best strategy is to land at one of the Outer Locations listed above, located on the edge of the map. These areas typically attract fewer players compared to more central locations, giving you a better chance to complete the task quickly and without interference.
All SHADOW Briefing types
There are three types of SHADOW Briefings this season, and each offers different challenges to complete in Fortnite to earn Gold Bars as your reward. Here are all of them and the types of tasks they set:
SHADOW Briefing | Challenge | Icon |
---|---|---|
Armory | Complete a task with one of four different weapons. | ![]() |
Plunder | Dig up buried rare chests at marked locations. | ![]() |
Supply Drop | Find and secure Supply Drop falling down at a marked location. | ![]() |
