To complete the quest, you will first need to know where to find a Balloon in Fortnite, and then you’ll need to work out how to use it. Completing this challenge will award you a special Harvesting Tool called the Celebratory Slice. This is to mark Fortnite’s fifth birthday. On this page:
Fortnite Balloon locations
Balloons are currently available in game, to celebrate the game’s fifth birthday. As such, you can find them as ground loot, anywhere on the map. They look like small packets of Balloons, and will take up one slot in your inventory. They can be seen in the screenshot below. Fortnite Chapter 4 Chapter 1 is here, complete with a new augments system, the coming arrival of Geralt and the Ageless Champion to beat! We’ve also got a present list for Winterfest and Cozy Lodge and pizza slice locations. Meanwhile, learn how to get XP fast, earn the Victory Umbrella, find character locations and earn a Victory Crown.
How to use Balloons
If you logged into Fortnite this week you may have noticed new Birthday challenges. One of them asks you to use Balloons in single matches, which is easy once you know how. First, select a Balloon in your inventory, and then hold the right trigger. You can attach three balloons at once. You can attach multiple balloons to your character, by repeating the process outlined above. Balloons essentially increase your jump height and duration. The more Balloons, the higher the jump, and the longer you’ll stay in the air. To detach Balloons, you just need to press and hold down the right stick while in the air. This can be used to control your descent. To attach the five balloons you’ll need in a single game to complete the challenge, just attach three, take two off, then add two back on. You’ll then get your reward.
