With Fortnite Chapter 5 the map has changed again!

Perhaps you have already encountered one or the other resident of the island on your journey of discovery through the new places. As always, these characters have some pretty nice stuff for you, sell you cool Mythic weapons, rifts, or let you hire them to fight alongside you on the island.

Sounds exciting, doesn't it? Of course it does. So here we have compiled a list of all the NPC characters and their locations on the island of Fortnite.

Some characters no longer dwell on their spawn point, instead wandering around on a set path. Also, certain characters have multiple spawn points or share their spawn area.

So if you don't find a certain character, it either didn't spawn, or another player already killed or recruited the NPC. It's best to just start a new round. With all that said, let's take a look at the 17 NPC's that are available on the map.

What Do NPCs Do In Fortnite?

Every NPC in Fortnite Chapter 5 will sell or drop you some item. Some items require you to pay with gold bars to get the item.

If you ever shoot at an NPC, they will suddenly turn hostile and shoot back at you. In most cases, it's better to just run away, otherwise you risk getting killed by them.

And you don't want that, do you? But don't worry, if you've put some distance between you and those hostile NPC's and there's no other player around, they'll calm down after a while too, so it's easy.

And done! Now you know where each NPC is located in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1. Hope this is helpful in finding your new Fortnite favorite.
