How to talk to Captain Jones about next steps in Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 4

Doom sure is scary.

During Fortnite’s Chapter 5, Season 4 story questline, you’ll use various War Machine weapons to eliminate opponents before returning to Captain Jones and discussing the next action plan. However, even if you have the mission active, you won’t find a map marker for this particular character.

Captain Jones location in Fortnite Chapter 5, Season 4

Captain Jones is an NPC that spawns in two separate locations. The first spot is a building between the Nitrodrome and The Raft. Nestled between these two POIs is an unnamed location where Captain Jones will roam around, waiting for you to report back to him during this season’s storyline.

More specifically, this spot is next to a railroad track directly east of The Raft, southwest of Restored Reels, and northwest of the Nitrodome. It can be hard to find initially, so keep your eyes peeled for a large building near this section of the tracks.

His more common spawn spot is at an unnamed location between Restored Reels and Nitrodome. This time, rather than heading slightly west past the railroad track, you’ll move toward a small building between these two spots, east of the road.

Since these aren’t popular landing spots, you’ll likely only find a few other players in these areas. However, if someone arrives at The Raft to eliminate Emma Frost or the Nitrodome, they might pass through these locations and catch you. Watch your surroundings, and don’t be afraid to search around for weapons beforehand.

Captain Jones has multiple uses in Fortnite outside of story quests. You can talk to him to restore your health or buy weapons like the Captain America Shield and Monarch Pistols. There’s also extra dialogue about other characters you’ll find in the event if you’re interested in some Fortnite and Marvel lore.
