Fortnite Chapter 2, Season 7, adds some new items for players to collect in order to earn XP and unlock new styles for the Kymera skin. The Alien Artifacts are added to the Fortnite island every single week and there are usually about five of them to find. They are scattered throughout the map and players can use this guide to find all of the Alien Artifacts for Week 9 of Season 7.

However, before players attempt to search for these Alien Artifacts, they should make sure that they are live in the game. Typically, the Alien Artifacts will go live for all players once the new Fortnite quests go out later in the week.

  • Alien Artifact #1 (Northwest of Craggy Cliffs) - Players can find the first Fortnite Alien Artifact for Week 9 on an island on the north side of the map, northwest of Craggy Cliffs. On the island, there will be a lone shack sitting atop some rocks. Break the rocks underneath it to uncover a hidden artifact.
  • Alien Artifact #2 (East of the Aftermath) - Players can find a gas station with a restaurant next to it just east of the Aftermath, which is the large purple area in the middle of the Fortnite map. Players can enter the building left of the gas station to find the Alien Artifact sitting in plain sight.
  • Alien Artifact #3 (IO Base) - Players can find an IO base south of the Aftermath and east of Weeping Woods. These are the locations that have large glowing red satellite dishes. The Alien Artifact is sitting on top of the big satellite in the middle of the base. Players can either fly down to it from the battle bus or build some stairs to reach it.
  • Alien Artifact #4 (West side of Weeping Woods) - Players need to head to the spiral staircase west of Weeping Woods, and the Alien Artifact will be in a small shack right near the spiral.
  • Alien Artifact #5 (Southwest of Believer Beach) - Players will find a yellow shack on this island out in the water. The fifth and final Alien Artifact will be inside of it.
