Heroes and villains of Fortnite x Marvel’s Day of Doom LTM are going to have different loadouts with weapons that may just make or break a victory.
Gamers can now find Birthday Cake and Birthday Presents in Fortnite, but these are limited-timed items, and if they want to try them before they’re vaulted once again, they must hop in game and run towards their location right away. This guide shows players where they have to go to find birthday goodies in Fortnite.
Where to Find Birthday Cake in Fortnite
Players can find Birthday Cake at most named locations but not all. In total, there are 10 Birthday Cake locations in Fortnite:
- Doomstadt
- Castle Doom
- The Underworld
- Grim Gate
- Restored Reels
- Reckless Railways
- Grand Glacier
- The Raft
- Mount Olympus
- Redline Rig
The Birthday Cake is surrounded by eight Birthday Cake slices, and each slice will simultaneously heal the player by 10 HP and 10 Shield. However, if the player is at maximum health, they won’t be able to consume any slices.
Hot Spots and busier locations
always attract more gamers, so those trying to consume Birthday Cake slices for a quest should head to a POI that’s not too close to the Battle Bus route.
Where to Find Birthday Presents in Fortnite
Birthday Presents won’t be as easy to find as Birthday Cake, as they don’t have any fixed spawn locations. So, players can’t simply head to a POI in order to guarantee that they’ll find this item. Players can find Birthday Presents in Fortnite as floor loot or inside treasure chests and supply drops. However, since these are Legendary-rarity items, they don’t spawn as often as lower-rarity items.
To see the contents of the Birthday Present item, players must select its inventory slot, use the Aim button to and then throw it on the ground using the Fire button. A giant gift-wrapped Birthday Present will appear, and fans can break it open with their pickaxe to see what’s inside. Here’s what players can find inside Birthday Presents in Fortnite:
- Birthday Medallion
- Birthday Flare Gun
- Epic-Rarity loot or higher
The seventh birthday event is only live until October 1, 2024, at 2 AM ET. Once it’s over, players will no longer be able to find Birthday Cake or Birthday Presents in
Fortnite
