Best landing spots in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2

The best landing spots in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 can give you the headstart you need to grab that Victory Royale, especially when they’re full of top-tier weapons and chests. Here’s where you should be dropping in your next match.
The arrival of Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 has given the iconic Island another overhaul, with the entire southwestern corner of the map being taken over by a futuristic neo-Tokyo theme and several new locations like Mega City and Kenjutsu Crossing.
Understandably players will need to spend time figuring out which locations are the best landing spots in Fortnite after all of these changes. To help with this, we’ve put together a list of five of the best landing spots in Chapter 4 Season 2 of the game.
Best landing spots in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2
1. Mega City
In terms of pure loot, Mega City is the number one POI to land at in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2. There are more than 100 Chests dotted throughout the skyscraper buildings at this location, with plenty of floor loot around to supplement your inventory as you climb up high.
Still not happy with your weapons? Take on Highcard and steal his Havoc Suppressed Rifle and Vault Keycard to boost your options. This is also one of the most visually interesting locations in the game, with neon signs and the new Grind Rails lighting up the entire POI, so it’s going to be a busy drop spot.
2. Kenjutsu Crossing
If you’re eager to try out one of those epic Kinetic Blades that have been added in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 (or you just need one to complete a weekly quest), then it’s time to head to Kenjutsu Crossing. There are nine of these futuristic katanas located here, so you’re pretty much guaranteed to get one.
Aside from the Kinetic Blades, there are plenty of weapons to discover in the nearby buildings, as well as a Bounty Board and a Capture Point. Just like Mega City, Kenjutsu Crossing is also one of the most visually impressive new locations this season and has Grind Rails nearby for a quick getaway.
3. The Monoliths
There are three Monoliths on the current Fortnite map. The first is just south of the bridge heading into The Citadel, the second is on a frozen island northwest of Brutal Bastion, and the third is northeast of Kenjutsu Crossing. So why would you land at these unmarked locations? Well, it’s all about Serenade.
Serenade is a secret NPC that will spawn at a random Monolith in each match. You’re not guaranteed to find her, but it’s definitely worth trying as she sells three powerful Exotic weapons for the bargain price of just 25 Gold Bars. Even if you don’t find Serenade, these Monoliths all have a few Chests nearby.
4. Shattered Slabs
If you’re looking for fast-paced and hectic gameplay, then Shattered Slabs is the location for you. The main appeal here is Kinetic Ore, which can be struck multiple times before launching at your enemies, but there are also plenty of weapons and even a secret Vault to be found.
The layout of Shattered Slabs also means there are plenty of places to hide to help you land a surprise attack on other players, including some underground tunnels that make this POI a lot more interesting than it may seem at first glance.

5. The Citadel
While it may not be as shiny and new as Mega City, The Citadel still feels like a major POI this season. It’s a huge, sprawling castle that has plenty of corridors and rooms to explore, and you’re guaranteed to find loads of useful weapons and items here in regular Chests and on the ground.
Because this POI covers such a huge amount of ground, it’s also incredibly varied. If you want to be right in the action, head to the main castle and face off against other players; if you’d rather go somewhere quieter, check out the surrounding towers and buildings for some great loot.
6. Lonely Labs
If you’re the kind of player who prefers to avoid intense gunfights and sneak your way through to the final moments of a match, then the strangely peaceful Lonely Labs is a great place to land after leaving the Battle Bus.
Because it’s so far out on the map, there won’t be many players to compete with, but there’s still a good amount of Chests and Ammo Boxes to search through, while an array of ziplines and vehicles can help you escape before the Storm gets to you.
7. Frenzy Fields
Frenzy Fields bears more than a few similarities to the Chapter 2 location Frenzy Farm, which is perfect for longtime Fortnite fans who are feeling a little nostalgic. There’s a capture point, plenty of floor loot, two Weapon-o-matics, Hay Stacks to hide in, and an upgrade bench so there’s plenty to do here.
Unlike other POIs that are filled with buildings and tiny hiding spots, Frenzy Fields is wide open, which is great for players who want quick shootouts or prefer using long-range weapons like the Cobra DMR to snipe opponents from a distance. It’s also one of the prettiest locations with the new 5.1 Unreal Engine.
That’s everything you need to know about the best landing spots in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2!
