Once you complete all the challenges this week in Fortnite, you'll unlock the fifth Road Trip battle star. Here's how to get it and where you can find it.

Fortnite Season 5 Week 5: Road Trip #5 Hidden Battle Star Location

Last season saw the Blockbuster challenges get introduced, where a battle star icon would be hidden somewhere in the Blockbuster loading screens. Heading to that location in-game once you’d unlocked the loading screen and completed all the challenges till that point would reward you with an extra free battle pass tier. Epic brought back the concept for Season 5 with the Road Trip challenges and here’s where you can find the fifth secret battle star.

In the image above, you’ll see the battle star has been circled. It’s not too difficult to find but unless you know where that location is on the map, you’ll be hunting for a while. You’re going to want to head to the eastern side of the map, right by the racetrack, or GUS as some players like to call it. From there, head up the western hill and you’ll see a hut surrounded by cacti in a triangular formation. Climb on top of the hut and you’ll find the fifth Road Trip battle star. Here it is marked on the map:

Marked in blue on the east side of the map, the treasure is directly east of Retail Row.

 

Don’t forget that in order to find it, you need to have completed every single challenge up to this point. If you’re struggling with any of them at all, we’ve got a very handy index that collects all of our guides so far this season. Keep your eyes peeled on the site at the same time each week as we release our guides - just two more to go until we find out what the silhouetted Road Trip skin is!
