  Fortnite joined the Halloween celebration so the challenges that come will be related to this celebration, it will also unlock a challenge where you will have to detect the players as a Shadow and your duty will be to catch them. Stay to find out more!

How to detect players as a shadow in Fortnite?


You become a Shadow by dying in Solos, Duos, or Squads. You become a ghostly apparition and spawn over the area where you died, giving you a chance to take revenge on those who still live.

While you don't have weapons or shields like Shadow, you do have four different abilities.

  • -Slash - A gruesome combo sliding attack that you can use to attack other players.
  • -Dash: go through obstacles, gain speed briefly, become invisible for a short time at the end of the board.
  • -Shout: mark nearby living players for all shadows in range.
  • -Shadow Jump: a high floating jump in the air that covers long distances
For this challenge, the "Scream" ability is the one we will have to use. This will cause you to let out a terrifying scream, marking nearby enemies with a small red chevron.

They will also be marked for any other Shadows within range. This allows you to hunt down players and drop them. The button to use this ability is R on PC, but we're not sure if it maps to the reload button on all other platforms, you'll need to keep an eye on the HUD to see which button to press.

 Now that you know how to detect players as a shadow in Fortnite you can take advantage of this ability to attack / scare other players. Luck!
