The latest Fortnite update has added an unexpected but exciting Mythic item, the Krypto treat - allowing players to summon Superman’s four-legged companion, Krypto. While Fortnite is no stranger to crossovers, Krypto’s inclusion brings a unique and playful mechanic to Chapter 6 Season 3, titled “Super.”
From how to find this rare item to the best way to unleash its power, here’s everything you need to know about using the Krypto treat.
Where to find Krypto treats in Fortnite
Despite being a Mythic item, Krypto treats are surprisingly accessible. They spawn randomly in regular chests across the map, meaning all players have a fair shot at finding them. Each Krypto treat offers two uses, giving you a second chance to call in the super-powered pup during a single match.
Unlike previous Mythics that are locked behind bosses or POIs, Krypto treats drop in standard loot locations, making them easier to discover in casual and competitive modes alike.
How to use the Krypto treat
Once you’ve picked up a Krypto treat, using it is simple but strategic. Just throw the treat (R2 on console or Left-Click on PC) like you would a grenade. Wherever it lands, Krypto will dive-bomb from the sky, creating a dramatic explosion and dealing 100 damage to players, buildings, and NPCs within the blast radius.
Krypto is not a persistent companion, he appears, makes his destructive entrance, grabs the treat, and disappears. Think of it as calling in an airstrike... with a cape and a wagging tail.
When and where to use it
To make the most of Krypto, timing is crucial. Use the treat during close-quarters fights or to break enemy structures mid-battle. It can turn the tide by damaging groups of players or flushing out campers hiding behind builds.
Since the treat has limited range and doesn’t track enemies, placement is key - aim it into areas with less escape room.
The community has embraced Krypto with open arms. Content creator Jack “CouRage” Dunlop uploaded a crazy fun gameplay and fans on social media dubbed him the “best boy.” It’s another fun twist that Fortnite fans are enjoying this season.
As Epic Games continues to evolve gameplay with quirky but powerful additions, Krypto has quickly become a fan-favorite. So next time you spot a treat, toss it - and let the super dog do the rest.
