Fortnite Chapter 3 has arrived, bringing with it a new set of characters, a new battle pass, new weapons, new gameplay tweaks, and most importantly, a new map. Like every map before it, the new Fortnite map hides a ton of secrets for players to discover.

One such notable addition is the vaults. Vaults make a comeback in Fortnite Chapter 3, season 1, hiding high tier weapons and loot behind every single one of them.

How to open Fortnite Chapter 3 vaults

Getting into one of these seven vaults in Fortnite chapter 3 is very straightforward though isn't possible in the game's solo mode. To access these vaults, players have to be in duos, trios or squads.

Some vault requires two players, whereas other requires four players to stand in front of it to open. Alternatively, players can also hire an NPC to meet the vault door criteria in some situations.

There's always a possibility of enemy team members sneaking by to take advantage, so players should remain cautious while accessing these underground vaults.
