Shadow briefings are a new feature that debuted in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2. They basically look like a mini computer placed on a small briefcase that you can use to complete a variety of objectives and earn rewards.

You will find five different types of Shadow Briefings in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2:

  • Bounty Shadow Briefings – Like Bounty Boards, this particular shadow briefing requires you to eliminate a specified player marked on the map.
  • Supply Shadow Briefings – It spawns a supply drop nearby that you have to loot within a certain time shown on the screen. As is tradition, you will be rewarded with rare weapons and essential supplies if you manage to open the supplier within the time limit.
  • Treasure Shadow Briefings – This briefing marks two different locations on the map where you will find buried treasures containing vital loot.
  • Vehicle Shadow Briefings – Spawns a vehicle nearby that you have to find and then drive a certain distance in the given time. Completing the objective will reward you with many gold bonds.
  • Waxen Wings Briefing – It's a race that requires you to reach some checkpoints using flying wings. Unfortunately, you can't find this Shadow Briefing after the Fortnite elemental shrines update.
