Fortnite challenge guide: Launch toilets with a Grab-itron

The latest set of challenges for Fortnite season 7 is here, this time for week 9. The season is almost over, but we’ve got a little more to do before it wraps up. This week, you’re required to launch toilets with a Grab-itron, which is a weapon that — you guessed it — allows you to grab and launch items around the world. This challenge is actually a bit of a pain, not because it’s hard, but because it can take a while to get a Grab-itron to spawn.

In this guide, we’ll show you everything you’ll need to know about completing this challenge. Here’s how to launch toilets with a Grab-itron in Fortnite.

First, you’ll want to get your hands on the Grab-itron, which is a purple device that can be used to launch items found throughout the map. The problem is, finding this weapon can be tough since it doesn’t seem to spawn too often. Ideally, you should land in an area with lots of buildings such as Lazy Lake or Steamy Stacks. These areas are home to many chests, which contain the device you’re looking for. In fact, we advise going toward a place with toilets, which are usually found inside buildings at the aforementioned locations (this way, you won’t have to travel far once you do get the Grab-itron).

Once you land, you should make it a priority to loot as much as possible, opening up every chest you can find. With a little luck, you’ll stumble upon the Grab-itron, but if you’re like us, it might take you a little while to find it. Make sure you have Visualize Sound Effects turned on so you can easily pinpoint the locations of chests. Keep looting and make sure you take out nearby opponents, as they might drop a Grab-itron if they had one on hand.

As always, we advise bringing a squad along with you to help you find the weapon and so they can watch your back as you look around.

Once you’ve gotten your hands on it, all you have to do is launch two toilets. They don’t need to be in the same match, though we’d recommend getting this challenge done ASAP since finding the Grab-itron is so tricky. When we completed the challenge on our end, we landed at Steamy Stacks, which is a great spot that’s often less busy than others. Here, there are multiple bathrooms with toilets, so assuming you’ve found a Grab-itron, you should have no trouble launching two before the end of the match.

Otherwise, you’ll need to head to the next building with a bathroom to find another toilet to launch. After you launch two, you’ll gain credit for completing the challenge.

Fortnite is coming back to iOS, but Epic Games still isn’t happy about it

Fortnite is set to come back to iOS in Europe sometime in 2024. This will mark the first time a natively running version of Fortnite will be available on iOS since Apple removed the game from the App Store in 2020.

Apple did so at the time because Epic tried to use its own third-party payment system, kicking off a series of legal battles in an attempt to get Apple to open up its platform more. Although those legal battles have yielded mixed results for Epic, a newly passed Digital Markets Act in the European Union is forcing Apple to do things like "allow third parties to inter-operate with the gatekeeper’s own services in certain specific situations" and "allow their business users to promote their offer and conclude contracts with their customers outside the gatekeeper’s platform."

Rock Band 4 gets its final piece of DLC next week after over 8 years of support

Harmonix revealed that the January 25 DLC tracks for Rock Band 4 will be the final new ones added to the game.

This ends a streak of more than eight years of weekly DLC for the rhythm game. Ever since Rock Band 4 was released in October 2015, new DLC songs have been made available for purchase every week, giving the game one of the most impressive live service tails in the industry. Ultimately, Harmonix says it will have released nearly 3,000 songs as DLC for Rock Band 4 after the final content drop next week, and that live service support for seasons and online play will "continue as normal" after next week.

The best battle royale games
Jonesy running in Fortnite.

Ever since PUBG made the genre mainstream, The battle royale genre has only continued to maintain its momentum. The basic concept is simple -- dozens of players are placed on a map and fight it out until only one remains standing. It's led to countless different games offering their own take on the formula.

The Culling introduced crafting weaponry, and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds slowed down the action with its stealth and precision shooting. Eventually, the genre expanded to include games that look drastically different from each other, and it can be overwhelming to choose one. Fortunately, we’re here to help! These are the best battle royale games.
