Medallions were introduced to Fortnite in Chapter 5 Season 1 and have returned in Season 3 with some twists. Here’s how you can get Medallions in Fortnite, along with what they do.

Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 brought a post-apocalyptic theme to the island, and you will come across different Wasteland Warriors roaming around. These characters are the minibosses of the island and drop Medallions.

So, this guide will help you figure out how to get these Medallions in Fortnite and how to use them to complete Weekly Quests and earn Victory Royales.

All Fortnite Medallions & how to get them

There are three different Medallions in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, and players can get them by challenging and eliminating different bosses around the island.

Here’s a list of all the Medallions that you will come across in Fortnite:

  • The Machinist’s Medallion: To get this item, you need to defeat The Machinist, who is located at Redline Rig. With this Medallion equipped, you’ll regenerate shields over time.
  • Ringmaster Scarr’s Medallion: Defeat Ringmaster Scarr at the Nitrodrome to acquire this Medallion in Fortnite. When equipped, you will get infinite ammo and a small damage buff.
  • Megalo Don’s Medallion: To unlock this item, you need to defeat Megalo Don at Brutal Beachhead. When equipped, you will receive infinite Nitro.

Do note that The Machinist and Megalo Don can be found roaming the island during some matches. This means you won’t find them in their usual locations, but you’ll see the Medallion moving on the map.

Fortnite Medallions in Chapter 5 Season 3 Wrecked
Chapter 5 Season 3 only features three Medallions.

It’s worth noting that owning a Medallion will reveal your location on the map to enemy players, so make sure you keep your eyes peeled for enemies chasing you.

Owning all Medallions won’t give you any additional bonuses. Instead, the more Medallions you have, the more precise your location will be for other players.

Fortnite also added the Nuka-Cola, many Fallout cosmetics, and even a Magneto skin, so make sure to check the current Battle Pass to get all items.
