How to open the Secret Empire Cache in Fortnite Star Wars Galactic Battle
You’ll find the Secret Empire Cache forLeia’s Story questssoutheast of Brutal Boxcarsatop a large mountain. If you’re starting from Leia’s beginning quest spot, you’ll need to run past Brutal Boxcars and use the nearby ziplines or run up the mountain toward your quest marker.
As you approach your quest marker, you’ll spot a cave entrance blocked by massive boulders. To clear away these rocks, you’ll need to hotwire a nearby cannon so it shoots towards the cave, opening the way to loot and an imperial console. You’ll spot this cannon directly south of the cave atop a broken tank.
Watch out for other players as you approach this area, hotwire the cannon, and enter the cache’s cave. Other players are likely to join you to finish their quests, resulting in occasional skirmishes that can quickly eliminate you if you’re unprepared. Use nearby chests and floor loot to your advantage so you can defeat them before they can beat you.
If someone eliminates you during yourFortnitematches while you’re entering this cache cave, you’ll have to hotwire the cannon and explore the area again. To make things quicker, try to land here after jumping from the Battle Bus so you don’t have to scale the mountain again.
How to investigate the Secret Empire Cache Imperial Console
Once you enter the Secret Empire Cache’s cave, you’ll notice several treasure chests to open and a new quest objective to investigate an Imperial Console. You’ll spot this console directly to your right after entering the cave.
Much like consoles you use to activateTIE Fighter planes, you only need to interact with the console briefly to finish the quest. You can also loot the nearby treasure chests along the way in case a player comes by and attempts to fight you. Just watch out for anyone who tries to sneak up on you.
Once you investigate the console, return to Leia to tell her about the Empire’s movements. She’ll thank you for your efforts, rewarding you with some account XP towards the season’s battle pass. You’re now ready to find otherFortniteGalactic Battles NPCsand complete their quests for additional XP rewards.
