Fortnite season 7 is arriving very soon, and Epic has been teasing some sort of alien UFO plot with the Foreshadowing quests. Last week, players had to find a downed black helicopter. This new Foreshadowing quest asks you to find CB radios around the Fortnite map—five of them to be specific. They'll all play a new message for you that hints at plot developments leading into season 7.

Unlike some other challenges, the in-game map doesn't show you where to head, so don't run around looking in every corner for a radio. We've done the hard work of scouring the map and finding every CB radio location for you.

All CB radios look pretty much exactly like the one you see at the top of the page. A small metal box with old school antennas sticking out. Unfortunately, they're all spread out a ways from one another.

CB radio location 1: On the coast northeast of Steamy Stacks. You'll find it sitting on a table next to a shipping container.

CB radio location 2: A few yards north of that radio tower/helipad place.

CB radio location 3: North of Stealthy Stronghold, under a small shack on stilts.

CB radio location 4: On a small island on the west side of Slurpy Swamp, next to another shipping container.

CB radio location 5: Head to the dance lodge on top of the southern mountain. You'll find the CB radio under a set of stairs in the back of the building's exterior.

Once you interact with the fifth CB radio, you'll earn a cool 24,000 XP. Don't forget to listen to the messages being played on the radio for more teasers to Fortnite season 7's theme.
