The latest season of Fortnite has introduced a lot of new weapons and a crafting system to upgrade them. On top of all that though, you’ve got a brand new type of chest and loot. The Bunker chests that are featured in the game are some of the best things to loot ever added. It’s drop rate of high-end gear makes them more useful than supply chests or rare chests. Finding them though, that’s a bit complicated. These Fortnite bunker chests aren’t just going to be sat around, you’ve actually got to dig them out.
The current Season of Fortnite is fun in how different it is from the past. However, the crafting system has gotten frustrating to some players. Getting a decent loadout now means spending quite a while grinding and crafting. On top of that, decent tier loot is now very unlikely to drop from your standard looting locations. This is kind of a perfect storm of frustration, unless you can find the Fortnite bunker chests. These chests pretty much always drop a purple or orange tier weapon. They have a 100% chance of dropping at least blue tier too. That’s along with the usual other bits that get dropped in from time to time.
As the best way to get decent loot without a whole lot of grinding, these things are important in Season 6’’s meta. This guide covers where you can find the bunker chest locations,and how can get into them.

Chest Location Map
Those are the Fortnite bunker chest locations. They’re marked on the map below too, but the instructions help find the specific spot.

Getting into The Bunker Chests
if you want to actually get inside of them you need to dig them up first. While some of them are just sat out in the open, some need to be evacuated. To do this, just hit at the ground where the bunker chest is buried. A few swings of your harvesting tool should bring the chest to the surface.
It is important to keep in mind though that these bunker chests don’t spawn every game. Like all other chests, the spawn rate isn’t 100%. A good portion of these locations will have a chest in each game, but it isn’t guaranteed. Try and remember their locations, so whenever rotating or landing you can do a quick check for the chest. Since they offer one of the few guaranteed ways to get decent loot without grinding, they’re worth seeking out.
