The gods have taken over the Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 battle royale map, bringing a ton of new visual flairs across the game world and some fresh locations based on ancient Greek mythology like Mount Olympus and the Underworld. There’s a whole lot of cool new stuff to see, but there are also some exciting godly items that have been added to the loot pool this season: Thunderbolt of Zeus and Wings of Icarus. If you’re looking to take flight with the Wings of Icarus, we’ve got all the info you need about this item below.
Where to get Wings of Icarus and how they work
The Wings of Icarus can be found in Olympus Chests or Underworld Chests. They can also rarely be found on the ground and in standard or rare chests.
This incredibly fun mobility item lets you press the fire button to begin flying through the air. You’ll start with 300 charges that will count down rapidly as you’re soaring around, but it’s usually enough to take you pretty far across the map when you need to reposition or escape the incoming storm. However, it’s worth noting that the relatively slow speed of taking off and flying doesn’t make the Wings of Icarus the best mid-battle escape tool, so it’s not usually wise to use it while you’re being shot at.
But flying is only half of what the Wings of Icarus provide. While you’re in the sky, you can do barrel rolls to dodge incoming fire or dive bomb your opponents for a bit of damage. The latter is best used to catch enemies off guard when you’re coming from a position above them because you may be shot out of the sky during your descent if they’re aware of your location. Even so, the versatility of this mobility item is exceptional, and practice makes perfect, so keep at it until you’ve mastered the skies.

How to get the Buster Sword in Apex Legends and how it works
Apex Legends has crossed over with various properties to some degree, but the current Apex Legends x Final Fantasy VII Rebirth event marks the most substantial crossover the popular battle royale has seen thus far. With tons of Final Fantasy VII-themed character and weapon skins, it’s pretty much exactly what fans need to get pumped for the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth next month. In addition to all of the cosmetics you can buy is the addition of the iconic Buster Sword that can be found and wielded against your opponents during matches. Below, we’ll tell you where to find Cloud Strife’s weapon of choice and how it works.
How to get the Buster Sword
You can find the Buster Sword in multiple locationsduring each match by looking for bright red beams coming off the ground. When coming upon one of these red beams, you’ll see the Buster Sword stuck in the ground, so just walk over and pick it up to add it to one of your weapon slots. Bear in mind that the Buster Sword can also be found in Neutral Care Packages or on the ground next to fallen players who had one, so the chances of you finding one in each match are relatively high.
Once you’ve equipped a Buster Sword, you’ll be able to dish out some pretty impressive damage to foes if you can close the gap on them. The weapon’s light attacks will deal 25 damage per hit, while heavy attacks output a whopping 60 damage, meaning just a few good swings from this bad boy can put someone down. You can also launch into the air and slam down on unsuspecting players below, or even use the sword to block incoming attacks by holding down the same button you use for aiming.
