Metallica has invaded Fortnite, and it’s not just their music that you can hear. As you roam around the island, there’s a good chance you’ll hear the sound of an electric guitar and a flash of lightning, thanks to the Ride the Lightning Mythic item.
Introduced as part of Fortnite‘s 30.10 update, the Ride the Lightning guitar lets you create an arc of lightning that you, and your teammates, can ride. Shooting you up into the air, you can then use it to rotate to a new location or to escape from a battle that you’re losing.
Don’t worry if you don’t know how to get it though, as I’ve got you covered. Here’s where to find the Ride the Lightning Mythic item in Fortnite.
Where to get Ride the Lightning guitar in Fortnite
Ride the Lightning guitars can be found in Chests scattered around the island, or on the floor as ground loot. You can also find them on the Metallica Loot Island, which spawns in the middle of matches. Should you get up there, you can rock out with the four members of the legendary band and get a Ride the Lightning guitar as a reward.
This will come as good news to many players, as sometimes getting a Mythic item can be a pain, especially if you need to defeat an NPC to get your hands on it. Thankfully, that’s not the case here, and anyone can pick it up and use it.
In fact, in the few games I’ve played since the update was released, I’ve seen quite a few of them sitting around the island, so it doesn’t look like they’ll be that hard to find either. So get into the action, pick up a guitar, and zap up into the sky.
