Godzilla Portal Locations in Fortnite
Epic Games has confirmed that special portals will randomly appear during Battle Royale matches. Being first to reach and enter these portals is important, as only one player per match can transform into Godzilla. However, after joining so many matches, I finally discovered seven Godzilla portal spawn locations. Here are the spots where you can find the portal:

- Southwest of Lost Lake
- At the Nightshift Forest, close to the Mythic Vault location
- South of Pumped Power
- Two spawn locations around Seaport City
- East of Masked Meadows
- At Hopeful Heights
These spots make it easier to track down the portal if you’re aiming to become Godzilla. These are also some tips that you can do if you really want to become Godzilla:



- While in the Battle Bus, keep your eyes peeled for a portal in the sky – this is your confirmation that Godzilla will appear in your match.
- If you don’t see one, feel free to return to the lobby and queue up again until you find a match with a portal.
- Once you’ve landed, watch for the “SECURITY ALERT – GODZILLA PORTAL IS OPEN!” notification and check your minimap for the Godzilla icon marking the portal’s location.
When you reach the portal, just run towards it. If you’re the first one to reach, then you will become Godzilla in that particular match. Also, to maximize your chances of reaching the portal first, try to land in central locations and grab mobility items for quick travel.
How to Play as Godzilla in Fortnite

If you succeed in reaching the portal first and transform into Godzilla, you will have access to three powerful abilities:
Godzilla Abilities | Description |
Roar | Acts as a player detection tool, revealing nearby opponents through structures and terrain. |
Mighty Stomp Attack | This ability sends players flying and damages structures. |
Heat Ray | Godzilla’s signature atomic breath comes to Fortnite as the Heat-Ray ability, which can destroy multiple structures in a line and deal significant damage to players. |
How to Counter Godzilla in Fortnite
If you’re not lucky enough to become Godzilla, then you need to defeat it. Here’s how to take down the king:

- Target weak spots to deal bonus damage.
- Collect Godzilla’s Fragments for health (40) and dash charges (3).
- Use the Rail Gun for increased damage.
- Deploy Shield Bubbles for protection.
- Work with other players to focus on attacking the Godzilla.
The player who manages to deal the highest damage to Godzilla will be rewarded with two powerful items:

- The Godzilla Medallion (grants rechargeable dash ability)
- An exotic Burst Quad Launcher
