There are currently four bosses that players can challenge in combat in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2. They are as follows:

  • Zeus
  • Ares
  • Hades
  • Cerberus

Throughout this guide, we will break down where you can find each boss, what weapons they drop, and the effects that their aspects of the gods grant players.

How To Summon Bosses in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2

Unlike past seasons, Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 bosses don’t roam around POIs looking for players. Instead, players have to locate their shrine at specific POIs and activate the boss by interacting with their statue. The boss will summon waves of minions that the players must defeat before the boss can take damage.

Each shrine can only be activated once per game, and anyone can join in on the boss challenge once it’s activated.
