The nice thing about this challenge is that you only need to place four of the 10 missing person signs across both areas. Each spot — Weeping Woods and Misty Meadows — has five possible locations where you can place a missing person sign. Since each area has five, you can finish this challenge by visiting only one hub. And, as always, your progress carries over from match to match, so no need to worry if you get eliminated before you finish the challenge. The map above has the locations of all 10 missing person sign spots (thanks, Fortnite.gg).

Below are more specific details on where to place each sign across both areas.

As Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 2 moves further into its wild Lawless theme, the weapons meta is heating up, enthralling players and shaking up the battle royale scene. This season, which debuted on February 21, 2025, has already offered a wild arsenal customized to its heist-focused narrative, with vault-busting gadgets and close-range brawlers dominating early strategies. Melee weapons initially dominated the scene, infuriating some competitive players with their overpowering presence, but a transition is beginning as new firepower emerges to threaten the status quo.

Exotic and Mythic weapons have begun to appear in the loot pool, with standouts like Midas' Gilded Eye Drum Gun have stirred controversy about their suitability for the season's fast-paced, close-quarters fighting. However, the latest addition—a dual-wield marvel called the Pump and Dump—is creating the most excitement. This shotgun-SMG hybrid promises to alter encounters and add a new twist to Fortnite's love for creative weaponry. As players scramble to adapt, the Pump and Dump's debut portends a potential meta shift, with the option of dominating load-outs or fading into oblivion.
