Fortnite: Conquering Godzilla and Thriving in Chapter 6

Godzilla Rampages Through Fortnite: How to Become and Defeat the King of the Monsters

Godzilla, the iconic kaiju, is stomping onto the Fortnite Battle Royale Island, starting January 17, 2025! One lucky player per match gets to control the colossal creature, but the rest will be tasked with bringing him down. Here's your guide to both sides of this epic showdown.

Becoming Godzilla:

The key to becoming Godzilla is finding and entering a randomly spawning rift. These rifts appear once per match at an unpredictable location on the island. Be the first to locate and jump into the rift, and you'll transform into the King of the Monsters!

As Godzilla, you'll wield three devastating abilities: a Roar to pinpoint nearby players, a Mighty Stomp Attack to send them flying, and a powerful Heat Ray to inflict significant damage. However, be warned: the entire lobby will be gunning for you!

Defeating Godzilla:

For the 99 players who didn't snag the rift, the challenge is on! Epic Games has strategically placed weak points on Godzilla. Focus your fire on these areas to cause Godzilla to drop Fragments, which provide 40 health and three dash charges – crucial for mobility in this intense battle.

The Rail Gun, unvaulted for this event, is a powerful weapon choice. High-rarity weapons are also effective. Damage dealt to Godzilla matters; the player who inflicts the most damage earns the Godzilla Medallion (with its own dash ability) and the exotic Burst Quad Launcher.

Even if you don't become Godzilla, defeating him offers a rewarding experience and bragging rights. So gear up, strategize, and prepare for the ultimate Fortnite challenge!
