Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 is live, and the map has a whole new cast of characters to track down. Knowing who's out there and where they set up can be the difference between making it to the final circle and getting caught off guard. Here is everything you need to know about the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 NPCs with their locations and services.
Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 NPCs and Their Locations
Last season in Chapter 7 Season 2, there were 14 NPCs scattered across the island. This season, the Runners map brings that number down to 11, but the roster includes some familiar faces alongside a few new arrivals.
Here is every NPC and where you can find them in Chapter 7 Season 3:
| NPC Name | Image | Location |
|---|---|---|
| The Order Reforged | ![]() | Battlewood, close to the bridge going north |
| Heatwave PJ | ![]() | South-eastern Latte Landing, inside the control room |
| The Guardian | ![]() | Golden Grove, northwest of the large orange tree |
| Cluster | ![]() | Duck ship at the edge of the bridge, Cluster Coast |
| Dylan | ![]() | Heatwave Harbor, inside the building on the east side of the bridge |
| Vanguard Slone | ![]() | Southwest Sinister Strip, sitting outside by the campfire |
| The Singularity | ![]() | Southwest Sinister Strip, standing at the front entrance |
| John Wick | ![]() | West of Calamari Canyon, next to the fishing boat store |
| Elite Daigo | ![]() | Sunken Shore, standing in the flooded area near the ice cream van |
| The Visitor | ![]() | Shaken Sanctuary, inside the triangular building |
| Rival Hope | ![]() | Shaken Sanctuary, inside the triangular building |
A few spots worth flagging before you land. Sinister Strip hosts both Vanguard Slone and The Singularity, so it can get busy early in a match. Shaken Sanctuary is another cluster, with both The Visitor and Rival Hope sharing the same triangular building. If you're making a service run, hitting these two NPC locations saves you travel time.
Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 NPCs' Services
Most NPCs this season charge Gold Bars for their services, which you earn from Cashier Machines and Chests. Here is a full breakdown of what each NPC offers and what it costs:
| NPC Name | Image | Service | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Order Reforged | ![]() | Activate Rift | 500 Gold Bars |
| The Guardian | ![]() | Gain 100 Health or Shields | 500 Gold Bars |
| Cluster | ![]() | Activate Rift | 500 Gold Bars |
| Vanguard Slone | ![]() | Gain Health or Shields | 500 Gold Bars |
| The Singularity | ![]() | Activate Rift | 500 Gold Bars |
| The Visitor | ![]() | Restock Ammo | 500 Gold Bars |
| Rival Hope | ![]() | Max Out Ammo | 500 Gold Bars |
Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 Specialist NPCs
Four NPCs this season can be hired as Specialists. Once hired, they follow you for the rest of the match and provide ongoing support depending on their class:
| NPC | Image | Specialist Type | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heatwave PJ | ![]() | Scout Specialist | 350 Gold Bars |
| Dylan | ![]() | Supply Specialist | 350 Gold Bars |
| John Wick | ![]() | Heavy Specialist | 350 Gold Bars |
| Elite Daigo | ![]() | Medic Specialist | 350 Gold Bars |
Specialists are worth picking up if you have the Gold Bars to spare, but keep in mind they can draw attention to your position. In the later stages of a match, a trailing NPC can give away your location during a quiet rotation, so think about it before you hire them.
With 11 NPCs across the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 map, there are plenty of options no matter where you drop. Getting familiar with a few key locations early gives you reliable access to healing, ammo, and backup whenever you need it most.
