Fortnite 18.40: Kakashi NPC Location Guide, Where To Find, & More

Fortnite's 18.40 Update has just come out and data miners are hard at work looking into all the changes being made and everything new on Fortnite Island. The Convergence is becoming a Cube Pyramid and it looks like Naruto's skin set is popular with fans. However, the Naruto Collab is more than just a set of cosmetics... Kakashi is actually being added to the game as an NPC and here's what you need to know about his location.

KAKASHI LOCATION - Where is this NPC?

Kakashi should be an NPC in a location west of Lazy Lake and south of Primal Pond and the newly-established Cube Pyramid. As you can see below, it should be in this rough area.

KAKASHI NPC LOCATION - Here's where he should be

Much like other NPCs in-game, Kakashi has his own Punchard. The objectives are as follows - according to iFireMonkey:

  • Tame Wildlife with the Hunter's Cloak
  • Place or Destroy a Trap
  • Build a Structure after taking damage
  • Hit players with Paper Bomb Kunai - a new Mythic weapon
  • Scout a UFO crash site

Each challenge is worth 30,000 XP.

We're expecting Kakashi to be the NPC that offers players the chance to get the Mythic Explosive Kunai - being referred to as the Paper Bomb Kunai. This should cost you 150 Gold Bars. The Kunai does 35 Damage and reportedly stacks up to 200 - people are talking about it like a Batarang dialled down slightly, for reference.

It's important to note that at the moment, this NPC location is unconfirmed and should be taken with a pinch of salt. The information has just been found in the game's files and should be confirmed soon when Epic Games actually adds Kakashi to the map. Information from ProGamesGuides.
