One of the many appeals to Fortnite, aside from its explosive action, is the fact that it is constantly updated with new additions such as weapons, skins and events.

Beginning on 8th March 2024, the game’s Chapter 5 Season 2 update is themed around Greek Mythology, and will conclude on 24th May 2024.

Pandora’s Box has been opened, and so the likes of Zeus and Hades have descended on the Battle Royale Island.

New locations such as Mount Olympus and The Underworld have been added as players battle it out with new powers and firearms that can be found in Underworld Chests.

But where can you find all of these goodies amid the mayhem around you? Read on to find out more.

How to search an Underworld Chest in Fortnite explained

Underworld Chests in Fortnite are boxes that contain special items such as new powers and weapons. They can be located in The Underworld or the Grim Gate areas on the map.

They are dotted around in different areas of both of these locations, with Grim Gate only spawning six of the boxes.

The brown treasure chests are easily identifiable, as they have a golden glow emanating from them. They may as well have a huge sign next to them reading: "Treasure and loot inside.''

Searching them physically is easy, too, as you simply need to hold down Square (or X if you are playing on Xbox) to open them.

Once the loot spills out around you, it is best to be aware of your surroundings in case another sneaky player has been watching you before swooping in and stealing your loot.

If learning visually is more your thing, Gamer Dad has a great video on YouTube, which we have included below to help.

Happy hunting!
