In Fortnite: Battle Royale there is a new Fortbyte again. How to find the 82nd Fortbyte northwest of The Block and solve the pressure plate puzzle, you can find out here.
Where is the Fortbyte? Fortbyte number 82 has been available since May 14, 2019. You can find the virtual puzzle piece according to the description text northwest of The Block.
The exact position is in the little forest in grid square D1. But before you can collect the byte, you need to solve a puzzle with pressure plates.
How to solve the pressure plate puzzle? At the location of the byte, there are four plates on the ground. The byte itself hovers transparently above the middle plate and cannot be collected at first.
However, the solution to the puzzle is extremely simple. You just need three teammates. They stand on the other three plates, and when you then step on the plate with the byte, you can collect it.
So that each of your teammates gets the byte, you need to alternate accordingly, so that everyone can stand in the middle by the byte and the rest keeps activating the other plates.
This works ideally in the 4-player squad mode or in another mode with larger teams. However, you may also find nice teammates in other modes who won’t shoot you while you collect the bytes. But don’t rely on that and be extremely careful if you want to get the byte without a team.
Is there a video as well? You can see how the whole procedure looks in a video here.
What are Fortbytes and how to collect them all? Fortbytes are puzzle pieces that are supposed to reveal a big secret overall. There are 100 bytes and every day of Season 9 a new one comes that you can find or unlock in the game.
By the way, if you have 90 bytes, you can unlock the new bonus skin from the Utopia Challenge of Season 9.
We have put together an overview of all Fortbytes so far here for you:
