Fortnite: Where is the Apparatus?

Fortnite is an online experience that is always evolving and changing. The immensely popular battle royale continues this trend through various updates as well as seasonal content including battle passes, changes to the map, new content to unlock, and much more. That pattern continued with Chapter 4, Season 3, removing the cyberpunk anime vibes and replacing them with a new Jungle theme complete with ruins to delve and gameplay mechanics like vines to slide on and mud to either slide faster or use as camouflage.

Alongside Season 3, Fortnite also kept with its ability to introduce new collaborations with other franchises and IPs which have ranged from video games, anime, TV shows, comics, and nearly everything else in between. For Chapter 4, Season 3, Fortnite partnered with Hasbro and its Transformers franchise to celebrate the recent Rise of the Beasts movie. The collaboration added items like the Cybertron Canon as well as new character skins for Optimus Prime and the leader of the Maximals, Optimus Primal.

In addition to the new content, many longtime Fortnite players are interested in seeing how the game changes from season to season, much of which can be seen through the new locations and updates made to the core Fortnite map. During the current season, many players need to find something called The Apparatus to complete a secret quest with items known as Prisms. Here is where players can find The Apparatus in Fortnite.

Where Is The Apparatus in Fortnite?

As many players may have assumed, The Apparatus is actually a new landmark location on the current Wilds Fortnite map. Previously known as Hidden Henge, update 25.00 in Fortnite saw the area essentially collapse, exposing the ruins below. Players can find this area to the Northwest of MEGA City, east of Rumble Ruins, or Southeast of Creeky Compound. In fact, Fortnite players can also find the NPC character Trace here as well and can trade gold bars for gear like a Thermal DMR, Cloak Gauntlets, or a Tactical Pistol.

What to do at The Apparatus

While exploring Fortnite's map during the Wilds season, player may come across items called Prisms, typically found inside of the Jungle biome area. Like most things found in Fortnite, prisms can be interacted with which kicks off a secret quest tasking players to bring them to The Apparatus. Prisms look like a little gemstone or crystal and players should explore ruins-like structures in the Jungle to find them. Once obtained, players should head back to The Apparatus and find Trace on the roof, where the prism can be turned in for a good chunk of XP.
