Shadow briefings are a new feature that debuted in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2. They essentially look like a mini-computer placed on a small briefcase through which you can complete a range of objectives and earn rewards.

You will find five different types of Shadow Briefings in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2:

  • Bounty Shadow Briefings â€“ Like Bounty Boards, this particular shadow briefing requires you to eliminate a specified player marked on the map.
  • Supply Shadow Briefings – It spawns a supply drop nearby that you must loot within a given time displayed on the screen. As is tradition, you'll be rewarded with rare weapons and essential supplies if you manage to open the supply drop within the time limit.
  • Treasure Shadow Briefings – This briefing marks two different locations on the map where you'll find buried treasures containing essential loot.
  • Vehicle Shadow Briefings â€“ Spawns a vehicle nearby, which you have to find and then drive for a certain distance within the given time. Completing the objective will reward you with plenty of gold bars.
  • Waxen Wings Briefing – It's a race that requires you to achieve a number of checkpoints using flying wings. Unfortunately, you can't find this Shadow Briefing after Fortnite's elemental shrines update.
