How to open Henchman chests in Fortnite Remix

Fortnite's newest season incorporates a return of the chest type that can grant several major presents. This, access is granted only by the use of a scanner, so this is heavier to unlock than usual. For the loot your henchmen have in store, here's how you can open their chests.

Fortnite: How to Open Henchman Chest

General speaking, the only requirement for opening Henchman Chests in Fortnite is donning an outfit that resembles a henchman, and a Henchman mask will be available at several red phone booths across the map. You can find a plethora of them around areas like Dogg Pound, The Yacht, or The Rig.

The disguise type depends on your location: you'll have to use the Shadow Henchman disguise at The Rig and The Yacht, while Ghost Henchman applies to the chests in The Doggpound. You can also know which one you're supposed to use by the message that shows up when trying to open a chest-"Shadow Henchman only" or "Ghost Henchman only".

Once you've donned the appropriate henchman disguise, the ID scanner will let you open the treasure chests to get your hands on some sweet loot. They are good chances to acquire new things to test since most of them contain consumables and weapons of epic and legendary quality. You'll be able to bypass the ID scanners that bar access to many buildings if you put on this disguise.

You get as an added bonus that the other henchman NPCs turn passive when you put their disguises on. Without these disguises, they are largely hostile if you approach them. Thankfully, most aren't traitors and won't attack their "brother" henchman, so you'll be fine running around for your life. Many players will fight you on reflex, though, so keep your wits about you.

Each henchman's chest in Fortnite

Most henchman chests require you to be dressed as a Ghost or Shadow, while a few are accessible and unlocked from the very start. They can be found in a multitude of locations, though The Rig, The Yacht, and The Doggpound are some of the more popular places to find them. Discover where to find each henchman's chest below.

Extras can be found in the following: Pleasant Park, on the island north of Misty Meadows, and to the north and south of Retail Row, although there are three central spawn sites for them on the map. There are less players here, which means that you have a better chance of obtaining the powerful weapons first.

By using these effectively, the players will come across good loot that the Henchman Chests carry with them and enhance their Fortnite Remix experience.
