Fortnite‘s Chapter 2 Remix event features plenty of nods to stories of the past. One particularly secret story deserves an appropriately secret set of quests. This guide will help you to hunt down 10 hidden Lawn Gnomes for a hefty chunk of battle pass XP.
War of the Gnomes
Back in the original Chapter 2, eagle-eyed players noticed certain props moving around the island between updates. Through the chapter, a story was told about a confrontation between the Lawn Gnomes and the Teddy Bears. Unlike most games, however, it wasn’t told through cinematics or audio logs. It was told through the incremental changes made to props between updates.
Eventually, the war was won by the Teddy Bears, and the Gnomes were exiled from the island. However, they’ve been periodically spotted by players every now and again. With Chapter 2 Remix here, we thought perhaps we’d relive the early days of that fated war. Instead, it appears that the Gnomes and Teddy Bears now get along! They’re hanging out in locations throughout the island, ready to hand over chunks of battle pass XP to players who find them.
Gnome locations in Fortnite Chapter 2 Remix
There are ten gnomes throughout the island. As you get near them, you’ll see an exclamation point icon to help track them down. They’re hidden away quite sneakily, so this map will help you locate them all.
- In Craggy Cliffs in the north of the island
- Under an umbrella in the sand of a secluded beach to the north
- Under a pylon from the power lines that run from Steamy Stacks to Retail Row
- Hanging on the shore of a river bend southeast of Frenzy Farm
- Watching TV inside a white house in Holly Hedges
- Playing Hide and Seek under a tree with a nearby Teddy Bear east of Holly Hedges
- Hanging out in Weeping Woods
- Standing next to a waterfall, reachable by dropping from the top or plunger-gun
- Relaxing near Misty Meadows
- Freezing head-first in the snow next to an abandoned camp
Each lawn gnome is worth 10,000 XP, with a bonus of 20,000 XP for collecting all ten. That should help you rocket through the expedited Battle Pass for this season. Remember to work fast because everything goes away at the end of the month!
