How to open a two-key chest in Fortnite

As Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 continues to move toward its conclusion in early June, players have a few more weeks’ worth of seasonal quests to knock out if they’d like to earn all of the additional cosmetics unlocked from the battle pass. As for week 9’s bundle of quests, one asks you to find and open a two-key chest somewhere on the map. These rare chests contain some of the game’s absolute best weapons that can turn the tide of a battle rather quickly, so they’re worth finding when you’re holding two keys. If you’re having some trouble finding keys or two-key chests, fret not – we’ll you how to complete this challenge and earn yourself an awesome weapon in the meantime.

How to open a two-key chest in Fortnite

The first thing you need to open a two-key chest is, well, two keys. While these can be found all across the map on the ground and in chests, you can actually buy them from an NPC named CRZ-8 located in a clearing north of Mega City. You can buy up to five keys from CRZ-8, but you can only hold three at a time – and you only need two for the quest, of course.

After you’ve obtained two keys, your goal is to find a two-key chest somewhere on the map. Unfortunately, these are located randomly alongside other groups of locked chests, meaning you’ll likely have to spend some time walking or driving around looking for them. Groups of chests are plentifully scattered around the map, though, and they can be identified on your mini-map by looking for a little lock icon. When you finally come across a group of chests containing a two-key chest in the lineup, simply insert two keys and open it to complete the quest and snag an extremely powerful weapon.

Another Crab’s Treasure is an approachable Soulslike with a comedic twist

Souslikes come in all shapes and sizes, including colorful seascapes with cute crabs.

Another Crab’s Treasure is the Finding Nemo of Soulslikes: a more accessible, cartoony approach to one of the most unforgiving genres. It's no Dark Souls, but it is an alternative for those tired of the typical dark fantasy Soulslike settings and the tropes attached to them. On the surface, it’s just about a guy who just wants his house (read: shell) back. However, it tells an entertaining story with genuinely challenging combat in between those narrative beats. It even lightly comments on societal and environmental issues like plastic-filled oceans and the downsides of capitalist society.

Elden Ring: How to find and use Rune Arcs
An Elden Ring player sits on their horse and looks out at a castle ahead.

Like everything else developed by FromSoftware, Elden Ring is painfully difficult. It'll take you hundreds of hours to discover everything it has to offer, and unless you're a grizzled veteran, you'll likely hit the "Game Over" screen thousands of times before your journey in the Lands Between comes to an end.

One way to help even the odds is by using Rune Arcs — a consumable item that lets you access Great Runes. You'll first need to unlock Great Runes to start properly using Rune Arcs, but once that's taken care of, you'll notice a big boost in your abilities.
