The Dial-A-Drop is a consumable item that debuted in Fortnite on November 8, 2022, and it has quite a unique functionality. Specifically, the item can be used to call in three different types of drops, which will provide players with health and shield items, weapons and resources, or a modded pickup truck depending on their selection. That said, fans that wish to perform this action must first locate a Dial-A-Drop in Fortnite, and this guide details where to look for one.

Fortnite: Dial-A-Drop Location

The Dial-A-Drop has a chance to appear in Chests and as Floor Loot, and players that are looking for one are thus advised to search at locations with a high density of those loot sources. At the time of writing, which is during Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4, Rave Cave, Tilted Towers, and Cloudy Condos all match that description, and they have been marked on the map that is below. Fans need not limit their searches to those three locations, though, as the Dial-A-Drop can be obtained across the entirety of the map.

The Dial-A-Drop can also be looted from the Supply Drops that occur over the course of a match. While these loot sources are much less common than Chests and Floor Loot, Fortnite players may still want to be on the lookout for any crates that are falling from the sky. For the uninitiated, an audio cue does occur when a Supply Drop is on its way, and that will help fans know when they should start looking for one.

To note, it is very likely that a forthcoming Weekly Quest will center around using this consumable item. In fact, there was a quest that instructed fans to use a Dial-A-Drop in different matches before the item was even available. This caused a bit of confusion within the Fortnite community, though the quest was removed quite quickly after it went live. It is reasonable to expect that this quest will return now that the Dial-A-Drop is obtainable, and players that have read this guide will be well-equipped to complete it.

While players wait for a Dial-A-Drop-focused quest to arrive, they may want to confirm that they have already addressed all the other challenges that have been made available over the course of Season 4. Indeed, many weeks-worth of quests have gone live at this point, giving fans numerous opportunities to earn the Battle Stars that are used to unlock items from the Fortnite Season 4 Battle Pass.

Fortnite is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
