For those looking to complete the find and defeat Billy Fortnitemares quest, they can find the solution below, just be sure to bring plenty of shields and weapons, as well as courage, since this horror icon isn’t going to go down without a fight and a fright.

Where to Find Billy in Fortnite

Freaky Fields (formerly Reckless Railways)

Billy the Puppet is located at Freaky Fields, where Reckless Railways used to be. More specifically, Billy the Puppet is inside the large white house on the homestead. Inside the white house, players will see a TV in the center of the ground floor. Approach the TV, and an image of Billy the Puppet will appear. Players must then hold the interact button (Square/X/E on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC) on the TV screen. After which, Billy the Puppet will burst from the screen and begin an unrelenting boss fight.

Considering this will be a popular Fortnitemares quest due to the 20,000 XP reward, it’s best to drop at Freaky Fields immediately from the Battle Bus and attempt to take Billy down before other players swarm him.

How to Beat Billy in Fortnite

Now that players have summoned Billy from Freaky Fields, he will charge at players with his pickaxe. Billy is much taller than normal NPCs, and his unrelenting charge will have him constantly swing his pickaxe, which if it hits the player, deals 12 damage per hit. Billy himself has around 500 to 600 Health, so make sure to lay into him with a barrage of bullets, as a fair pickaxe fight against this behemoth will only end poorly for the player.

After Billy has been defeated, he does the usual eliminated animation, and will then drop some loot that can aid players:

• Shield Potion x1
• FlowBerry Fizz x1
• Sovereign Shotgun (Epic Rarity)
• Boom Billy x3
