Fortnite's new alien-themed season is finally here, bringing some changes to the massive battle royale map. With the addition of new NPCs, weapons, and skins, there are several locations on the map where Fortnite players can find a UFO, which the player can control to attack other players and boost around the map much quicker.
There are 5 main locations where players can find UFOs in Fortnite, and players can use this guide to get to them all and get the upper hand on opponents.

The five UFO locations are mapped on the map below, but players should know that there is typically blue smoke surrounding the area of a UFO spot. The IO guards are attempting to protect players from grabbing the UFOs, so players should be prepared to deal with them if they get too rowdy.
1. The first UFO can be found in the southern section of the map in an area called Camp Cod, just southeast of Misty Meadows.
2. The second UFO can be found west of Weeping Woods, in an area called Logjam Woodworks.
3. The third UFO is underneath the green steel bridge just southeast of Corny Complex.
4. UFO number four is over at the Dirty Docks, a point of interest on the east side of the map.
5. And the final UFO is at Steamy Stacks, the locale in the northeastern corner of the Fortnite map.
While these are the main 5 locations to find UFOs in Fortnite season 7, some other ones will be hidden across the map and are usually near some foliage to cover it up, such as trees or bushes.
Once a player goes up to a UFO, they can enter it as they would a car or another vehicle. All of the actions will appear on screen at this point, and players have several options while flying one of these around. They can raise the ship up and down, pick up objects with its abduction beam, boost to gain quick speed, and attack enemies with a laser beam, which usually does 30 damage to opponents.
It may seem like the UFO is something that would be hard to destroy, but it's not that hard for enemies to shoot it down with a decent gun. Players controlling the UFO should be careful not to get too close to the ground and keep an eye on the ship's battery. If players set the ship down for some time, though, the UFO battery will slowly recharge on its own.
Fortnite is now available for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
