Where to find Jaegar’s family basement in Fortnite

By Billy Givens Published April 11, 2023

Attack on Titan is taking over Fortnite right now, bringing a collection of brand-new skins, weapons, and more from the hit anime. Among these is the Eren Jaegar skin, which requires you to own the premium battle pass and then complete a handful of quests to unlock. One of those quests is finding Jaegar’s family basement, and unfortunately, it’s not marked on the map to make things easy for you. Don’t worry, however, as we’ve got the exact location for you here.

Where to find Jaegar’s family basement

Jaegar’s family basement is located in Anvil Square, which you’ll find nearly centered on this season’s map. As you’re landing at Anvil Square, aim to do so at the most southeastern house. You may want to head inside the house quickly and find a weapon if you see that you’ve got a lot of company, but when you’re ready to head to the basement, read on.

On the eastern side of the house is an awning that you can pass under, and you’ll notice a path underneath that leads down toward a door. Head down and open the door there to find Jaegar’s family basement. Again, just be prepared that your opponents may be trying to access the same area for the quest, too.

You’ll immediately receive the completion of the quest to find the basement upon opening the door, meaning you’re also one step closer to earning your Eren Jaegar skin. And hey, while you’re down in the basement, make sure you pop open the Scout Regiment Footlocker there to grab one of the new Attack on Titan weapons.

How to kill the Nord Mines dragon in Metaphor: ReFantazio (and why you should)

The main character in an anime cutscene for Metaphor: ReFantazio.

The opening hours of Metaphor: ReFantazio sends you to a variety of unique places as you're introduced to its interesting world and gameplay design. After the game's initial segments play out, you'll soon find yourself exploring your first main dungeon — a place known as the Nord Mines. This lengthy dungeon stretches on for an hour or so and includes another fight against a human boss. But right as you're getting ready to reach the end of the mines, you'll stumble across a room with a sleeping dragon where your team decides it might be smarter to sneak around it and avoid combat.

Because of the way the game pushes you toward stealth in this room, you may be convinced that waking and fighting the dragon is a really bad idea. However, you might be surprised to hear that the dragon actually isn't that difficult to defeat, and doing so can earn you an extremely powerful weapon. Let's take a look at what you need to know about the Nord Mines dragon.
How to kill the Nord Mines dragon (and why you should)
When you reach the room with the sleeping dragon in Nord Mines, you can choose to stealth around the outer rim of the area or face the dragon by approaching it. We'd recommend you approach and fight the dragon, as defeating it isn't as difficult as the game hints it'll be.

All cross-platform games (PS5, Xbox Series X, PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC)

Two squads of heroes clash in an Overwatch 2 trailer.

Cross-platform support is becoming more important in the world of video games. Multiplayer hits like Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 and Fortnite have pushed crossplay into the limelight, and now most AAA multiplayer games release with at least partial cross-platform support. Finding every cross-platform game is no easy feat, though, so we did the hard work to bring you a comprehensive list of games that support crossplay.

Unfortunately, there aren't any rules when it comes to crossplay, so each game handles the feature a little differently. To make matters more confusing, certain backward-compatible games on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X still support crossplay on the most recent hardware, even if there isn't an official release for that hardware.

How to start The Dark Horizon DLC in Remnant 2

Remnant 2 is finally capping off its trilogy of planned DLC with The Dark Horizon, which provides players with additional areas to explore in one of the most interesting biomes from the base game, as well as the new Warden archetype to find and equip. Whether you've played the two previous DLCs or simply want to check out what this fresh batch of content brings to the table, we'll tell you how you can get started below.
How to start The Dark Horizon DLC
The first thing you'll need to do to access The Dark Horizon DLC is to be certain you’ve purchased and downloaded it. It's available as a standalone version from your respective storefront for $10, or you can pick up the $25 bundle, which includes the two previous DLCs as well: The Awakened King and The Forgotten Kingdom. We'd recommend opting for the latter, as it's the best deal and will net you all three DLCs for $5 cheaper, each offering you new areas, archetypes, weapons, and more.

Once you’ve purchased and downloaded The Dark Horizon DLC, you can access it by visiting a World Stone and opening Adventure Mode -- provided that you've completed the N'erud biome at least once, that is. With that out of the way, simply select “Reroll Adventure Mode” and choose The Dark Horizon: One Shot. This will grant you exclusively DLC content your first time through rather than filling your game with older content. However, after you complete this initial run, any subsequent playthroughs of N'erud will piece together DLC areas with main campaign content.
