Discover how to get the War Bus in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 and learn how to use the vehicle for battle advantage with this guide.

In the latest Fortnite update for Chapter 5 Season 3, Epic Games introduced a new vehicle called the War Bus. This armored Battle Bus dominates the battlefield with equipped weapons like cannons. Getting your hands on the War Bus is no easy task but can give you a significant advantage in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3.

How to Get the War Bus in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3

The first step is locating the War Bus on the map.

Two War Buses constantly patrol the island, appearing as gold icons. However, they have no set spawn location, requiring you to track their movements.

Hostile NPCs called Patrollers drive and protect the War Buses. Defeating these enemies is crucial to hijacking the vehicle.

You may also need to take on Boss NPCs like The Machinist or Megalo Don riding alongside in armed cars.

Hijacking the War Bus

Once you spot a War Bus, approach with caution. The Patrollers guarding it are hostile and will attack on sight.

Here are some of the best strategies to hijack the War Bus:

• Eliminate the driver first before taking out the two cannon operators.
• Avoid direct confrontation with any Boss NPCs if possible.
• Wait for them to reload or move away, then make a break for the bus door.
• Simply approach and enter like any other vehicle to successfully hijack the War Bus.

The War Bus packs a serious punch with front and rear cannons firing explosive rounds. You can disable nearby enemy vehicles by honking the “horn,” which triggers an EMP blast (with a cooldown period between uses).

This vehicle also has the following vehicle modifications:

• Spiked Bumper for increased damage on impact
• Off-road tires for improved speed and handling off-road

With its armor and weapons, the War Bus allows you to dominate Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 Wrecked matches. Locate, hijack, and utilize this powerful vehicle for an edge against your opponents.
