Fortnite season 3: Everything we know
Fortnite map: Best drop spots and tips

As part of the Storm the Agency challenges, you'll need to eliminate a henchman at three different safehouse locations on the Fortnite map.

Fortnite safe houses are secret—well, I suppose, not anymore—areas guarded by shady bot-powered henchmen that the new faction reside.

To complete the challenge, you'll only need to eliminate a henchman at three safe house locations, but there's five locations total you can visit, so pick whatever is most convenient for you.

Alpha

The entrance to safe house Alpha is found on the eastern side of Pleasant Park. Once you dive down from the battle bus, if where you've landed matches with the screenshot above, you're in the right place. 'Hide' in the al fresco bathroom and you'll be shot through a tube to the first hideout.

Beta

Beta, however, is found in a landmark east of Frenzy Farms, just over the river. Continue past the river and you should see a building with an outhouse on the western side of the small complex. Ignore the toilet on the outside on the right: find the bathroom-based portal to safe house Beta inside the outhouse.

Charlie

At least you don't have to dive into a toilet for this one: you've got to dive into a bin instead. The rubbish spot in question is near a landmark east of Craggy Cliffs. The building is a home on top of a hill with a load of telescopes on top. The bin is itself southeast of the building, obscured by a group of rocks.

Delta

Thankfully you don't need to jump into any more bins from here. For Delta, navigate to the larger island in the drink north of Misty Meadows. Dive onto the roof and hack down with your pickaxe: you only need to go into the house/base.

Echo

The fifth and final Fortnite Shadow safe house is in a red house northeast of Holly Hedges. Sneak/shoot past the henchmen patrolling the perimeter, head into the building, and use the metal stairs to descend to the basement.

Once you've completed the challenge, you'll earn a unique weapon wrap and be one step closer to finishing the Storm the Agency challenges, which can earn you a total of 120,000 XP, plus a new pickaxe and glider skin.
