Where To Find Hero Caches In Fortnite

Hero Caches are a unique type of chest available in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 3, and they are closely tied to a player’s Hero Rank.

These caches can be found in nearly all named POIs across the island, with their locations often highlighted on the map and minimaps once they are made available. Supernova Academy and Utopia City are among the most reliable areas to search for one, but players can generally find them in all named POIs.

While Hero Cache spawns can be somewhat RNG-dependent, one guaranteed location stands out—the basement of the Tech Lab at Supernova Academy, located in the eastern building of the POI.

Inside the Tech Lab, players will discover several secret rooms, each marked with a specific Hero Rank requirement. To unlock a room, simply stand near the door while having the corresponding Hero Rank or higher and interact with it.

Once inside, players will find a Hero Cache along with Academy Stands offering Hero Items. Additionally, various items will be available for purchase using Gold Bars, ranging from Epic weapons to powerful Boons.

While the Tech Lab at Supernova Academy is the only location where players can find these locked rooms, additional Tech Labs are set to debut throughout the season.

How To Open Hero Caches In Fortnite

Unlike regular chests in Fortnite, Hero Caches come with a unique requirement that players must meet before opening them. These special caches may often be locked when first discovered, requiring players to increase their Hero Rank to gain access.

Each Hero Cache displays the minimum Rank needed to unlock it, and the rewards inside scale based on the Rank requirement. Once players reach the required Hero Rank, they can open the Hero Cache.

Below is a breakdown of the different Hero Caches players can encounter, how to unlock them, and the types of rewards they offer:

Hero Cache	Unlock Requirement	Rewards
Rank C Hero Cache	No requirement needed	Uncommon weapon Uncommon consumable Chance of receiving a Boon
Rank B Hero Cache	Reach Hero Rank B	Rare weapon Rare consumable High chance of a Boon Random Hero Item
Rank A Hero Cache	Reach Hero Rank A	Epic weapon Epic consumable Guaranteed Boon Random Hero Item
Rank S Hero Cache	Reach Hero Rank S	Legendary weapon Legendary consumable Guaranteed Boon Random Hero Item
