Where to find Fortnite's Cardboard Box and EMP Stealth Camo Mythic Items
Fortnite has introduced two new Mythic items to coincide with Solid Snake's arrival in game. Two of his most useful stealth items – the high tech EMP Stealth Camo, and the iconic Cardboard Box – have arrived.
While the main event of the Metal Gear Solid and Fortnite crossover introduced with update v.28.10 is the Solid Snake quests and skin, Epic Games has taken the Konami collab one step further by introducing some of Metal Gear's Iconic items. The EMP Stealth Camo, most famously used by Snake in the intro cutscene of Metal Gear Solid 2, and the greatest high tech stealth item ever produced by man, a Cardboard Box.
These items are of Mythic rarity and while Epic hasn't confirmed how long they will remain in-game for, we'd expect them to stick around for the remainder of the season. The EMP Stealth Camo has unlimited uses, however once you deactivate it, you need to wait for a 30 second cooldown before using it again. Meanwhile the Cardboard Box allows five uses over a short period of time, with them replenishing over time.
Where to find Fortnite's Cardboard Box and EMP Stealth Camo
Where can you find Fortnite Cardboard Box and EMP Stealth Camo items? Well, these are both regular drops which can appear in any chest. However, obviously this is random, so we've got a few ways to make your chances better.
The following areas have the highest concentration of Chests on the current map:
Why Star Wars Jedi: Survivor's six week delay is a good thing- Ritzy Riviera
- Pleasant Piazza
- Snooty Steppes
- Classy Courts
While you aren't guaranteed to get the Fortnite Cardboard Box and EMP Stealth Camo items from these areas, they are great places to search, as more chests means more chances of finding these items. However, bear in mind these areas are always going to be a popular location for players to drop into, so be prepared to fight if you head there – not to mention other than Pleasant Piazza, these areas have aggressive NPC's to deal with.
The only way to actually 100% guarantee getting the Fortnite Cardboard Box and EMP Stealth Camo items is to find the Snake NPC on the map and spend bars to get the items from him, however if someone has hired him, you won't be able to get those either. We have a handy guide on where to find Snake in Fortnite to help you with that.
And of course, there's always the classic way. Find an enemy who does have a Cardboard box or EMP Stealth Camo and eliminate them to steal their loot.
