Fortnite seems keen on rescuing bananas from the clutches of Minion-induced mockery with their Banana of the Gods. Finding the Banana of the Gods can greatly increase your chances of defeating the Olympian Gods, so it’s a worthy search.
Fortnite Chapter Five, season two introduces us to the Olympian gods, Cerberus, and Midas. As the game attempts to tie this nonsensical happening into a somewhat cohesive plot, we are treated to the most mouth-watering loot the game has ever seen: Midas’ golden Drum Gun, the Chains of Hades, and the Banana of the Gods. While the first two are one of the game’s most deadly weapons, the third is a consumable you’d be wise to carry in your inventory this season. In this guide, I’ll show you everything you need to know about the Bananas of the Gods in Fortnite.
How to find Banana of the Gods in Fortnite Chapter 5 season 2
You can mostly find Banana of the Gods at two locations in Fortnite: Mount Olympus and Brawler’s Battleground. These golden bananas spawn as floor loot, inside loot chests, and produce boxes. The bananas can also spawn in other areas of the map, so you might stumble upon them even when you aren’t searching for one.
