In Fortnite: Battle Royale (PC, PS4, iOS, Switch & Xbox One) there is currently an ARG (Alternate Reality Game) to announce Season 5. Recently, there have been new clues and solutions.
What is the ARG about? In Fortnite, since the rocket launch, objects have been disappearing from the game world daily. So far, at least one of them, a giant burger, has appeared in a desert in the real world. There, a mysterious agent was lurking, giving cryptic answers to questions and distributing phone numbers.
Puzzles upon puzzles, some of which seem to be solved while new ones emerge. Here you can find out what’s new.
New Agent #3742 is here
More agents have appeared: When the burger appeared in the desert in California on Saturday, a mysterious guy who issued a card titled Agent #3678 was also there. On the back of the card was a phone number, but more on that later.
Meanwhile, the first agent has received reinforcements. A woman with the number #3742 is now also on-site and is issuing a card. The phone number is still the same.
What are the agents doing? The agents themselves remain extremely mysterious. When asked, they seem to provide no clear answers. When asked about burgers, they also seem to have no idea what that is. They also mentioned several times that they would use “all six senses” to analyze the anomaly. In doing so, they were handling telescopes and other strange devices.

Tracks in the Sand and Hay Shed
Stagecoach or shopping cart? If you explore the area around the burger and the agents, you will find a track in the sand. It could come from a shopping cart, the usual vehicles from Fortnite. Or it could be the tracks of a stagecoach from the Wild West. Such a thing has recently appeared in Fortnite.
Needle in a haystack? Next to the tracks is a kind of haystack. There is straw and hay lying around. However, players have yet to find anything there despite intensive searching. Perhaps the haystack is the next object from our world to appear in Fortnite? It would certainly fit the theory of an upcoming Western time travel theme in Season 5.
Coordinates Decoded – Trail Leads to Greasy Grove
This is what the numbers from the phone mean: New information is available if you call the phone number from the agents’ cards. Strange noises can still be heard, but they seem to have changed by now.
When tracking the sounds through a spectrograph, the numerical string “067000111” emerges. So far, this meant nothing, but some players have been trying codes with it. The following results came out:
- 067 in ASCII means “C”
- 000111 in binary code equals 7
What is C7? C7 could refer to the corresponding map squares on the Fortnite map. The burger restaurant in Greasy Grove is located there. The burger head comes from there.
Is something new appearing soon in Greasy Grove? Could it be that a new object will soon appear at the location of the burger in the game? Be sure to keep your eyes peeled when you land at Greasy Grove in C7. We will continue to investigate the matter and inform you about news from the ARG of Fortnite.
