In an exciting new twist, Godzilla has made a grand entrance into Fortnite as a formidable boss capable of stomping across the map. This isn’t just another skin; stepping into Godzilla’s massive paws grants players some truly awesome powers. Imagine leveling cities and taking down opponents with a few well-placed stomps. But getting into those gargantuan shoes requires more than just luck—you have to be the first to find and enter a special, game-changing portal. Although it sounds straightforward, the challenge lies in locating this elusive portal, which spawns at random. Only one player per match has the chance to become this legendary kaiju.
If you’re looking to transform into the king of monsters during Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1, here’s what you need to know. First and foremost, make sure you’re the first to dive into the portal. That’s your ticket to becoming Godzilla. However, a word of caution: the portal doesn’t show up in every match. It holds a 40% chance of making an appearance according to HYPEX on social media—a significant increase from the initial 20% spawn rate when Godzilla thrilled players for the first time.
Once the portal is active, it’ll manifest at a random spot as soon as the first Storm Circle starts to close in on you. Stay alert for a security alert across the bottom of your screen, announcing, “Godzilla Portal is open,” coupled with a direct ping showing the portal’s location. To catch this location visually, zoom into your map where an imposing Godzilla icon will guide your way.
The race is on from the moment the portal spawns, typically early in a match, so time is of the essence. If you find yourself far from the portal’s location, it’s wise to stock up on ammo and brace for a confrontation with Godzilla. There are two quests available where inflicting damage on Godzilla will earn you rewards. For an edge in battle, target the glowing spikes lining Godzilla’s back. It’s a strategic move that delivers bonus damage and bumps you up on the damage leaderboard. Watch your damage score rocket under the “Damage Inflicted” display next to Godzilla’s health bar.
Should you successfully enter the portal, you’re in for a thrill as you transform into Godzilla. This form comes equipped with three major abilities, though sometimes the simplest action is the most satisfying: you can opt to stride over foes, causing destructive damage with each step!
