Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 has arrived and already made a huge splash, with players exploring the new Battle Pass and map changes. Among these map changes are the new Vaults that players can find around multiple POIs. If you want to learn more about all Fortnite Vaults in Chapter 7 Season 2 and how you can open them, here’s everything you need to know.
How to Open Squibbly Shores Vault in Fortnite
You can unlock the Squibbly Shores vault in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 by fishing for the unique keycard required to unlock it around the Zero Point Shard at the POI. Here are the steps you can follow to unlock the Squibbly Shores vault:
- Land at the Lighthouse at the Squibbly Shores POI.
- Loot up so you have weapons to defend yourself.
- Finding a Fishing Rod from one of the many barrels around the POI.
- Search for a unique fishing spot in the waters of the POI. You can spot it easily as it shines with a blue tint, unlike regular fishing spots.
- Cast your Fishing Rod line into the fishing spot. You will then get the Lighthouse Keycard on your first try.
- Collect the key card and head back into the lighthouse.
- Right as you enter, swipe the keycard at the console.
After you swipe the keycard at the console, you will receive some decent Blue and Purple rarity loot, including a possible Skyline Deployer. The vault is also highly likely to grant you a Pro Fishing Rod, which you can then use to fish for other better loot.
Can You Open Vault in New Sanctuary Fortnite?
No, as of now, there is no way for players to unlock the New Sanctuary Vault in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 and loot what’s inside. While vaults usually need a vault key card that is dropped by a Boss NPC, the New Sanctuary Vault is different. This is because the keycard required to unlock it, the Seven Compound Vault Key, is not currently in the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 loot pool.
It is up to the community to unlock this keycard, as it is a part of the Team Foundation vs Team Ice King Showdown event. The keycard is one of the many items Team Foundation can unlock by completing Rivalries and earning points for their team. Once the keycard is unlocked, players will be able to take down one of the many NPCs in Chapter 7 Season 2, possibly The Foundation, to acquire the keycard and unlock the New Sanctuary Vault.
Are There Any More Vaults in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2?
Yes, there are more vaults in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2, apart from the two listed above, and is called the Ice King vault that can be found at the Frigid Fortress POI. However, much like the New Sanctuary Vault, players cannot unlock this vault yet. The key card required to unlock this vault is also a part of the global Showdown event, and players playing for Team Ice King must complete Rivalries to add the Ice King keycard to the loot pool and unlock this vault.
Apart from this, Epic could also add more vaults to the Chapter 7 Season 2 in the next Fortnite update for Chapter 7 Season 2, possibly giving the Dark Voyager his own vault at Dark Dominion as well.
