Fortnite Bat Signal Locations: Where To Light Bat Signals Outside Of Gotham City

GameSpot may get a commission from retail offers.

Fortnite‘s latest crossover event is now underway. This time, the Caped Crusader Batman has invaded Epic’s popular battle royale shooter, bringing new Batman-themed skins, gadgets, and more to the game, not to mention a set of limited-time Batman challenges. You’ll have until October 1 to clear these and unlock other Batman-inspired cosmetics, including a special Catwing Glider.

Thankfully, most of the challenges are straightforward, so you shouldn’t have much trouble completing them. However, one task that’ll require you to do a bit of searching is to light different Bat Signals outside of Gotham City. If you’re not sure where those are, don’t worry–we show you exactly where you need to go below.

Where Are The Bat Signal Locations?

As the challenge states, you’ll need to light Bat Signals outside of Gotham City–the new Rift Zone that appeared where Titled Town was previously located. There are several signals scattered around the island, most of which are located in the northwestern portion of the map, but you only need to light three of them to complete this challenge. We’ve marked down all the locations of the Bat Signals we’ve found below.

How To Complete The Challenge

Fortunately, once you know where to look, this challenge is simply a matter of making your way to a Bat Signal and interacting with it to light it. The Bat Signals can be lit by multiple players, so don’t worry if you see someone else activate one before you; it will turn off shortly afterward, allowing you to light it as well. Once you’ve lit three signals, you’ll complete the challenge and take home 10 Battle Stars for your efforts.

As previously mentioned, the Fortnite Batman challenges will be available until October 1, so you have until then to complete them and unlock their corresponding rewards. Epic is also selling a Batman Caped Crusader Pack from Fortnite’s in-game store until October 6, which includes two different Batman outfits, a Batwing-styled glider, and a Batman-themed harvesting tool. October 6 is the same day Season 10 of Fortnite is scheduled to end, according to Epic’s website, so if you need help finishing up any remaining challenges before then, be sure to check out our Fortnite Season 10 challenges hub.

A Love Letter to Deet, the True Hero of Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance

Warning: SPOILERS for The Dark Crystal and The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance continue in this article.

It’s not weird, it’s just a fact: I’m in love with a muppet. I’ve fallen so hard for The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance’s Deet, that when I was originally beginning to write this article, I was afraid to complete the series in the event that we had to watch my beloved perish.

In some ways, I’m glad to have waited so that I could see her arc fleshed out more fully, but I can assure you that my heart doesn’t ache any less after that finale. Rather than focus entirely on the terrible fate that Deet is met with at the end, let’s look at exactly how my love of this glowing green Gelfling came to fruition.

Tim Robbins Talks the Surreal Nostalgic Strangeness of VHYES

It’s rare to find a truly original film in the blockbuster saturated landscape of 2019. But it’s always good to remember that isn’t because they aren’t being made, and Jack Henry Robbins’ VHYES is an example of the kind of exciting, unique, and fun filmmaking that often gets ignored in the face of caped crusaders and explosive action. IGN sat down with VHYES’ executive producer (and Jack’s dad), Tim Robbins, to chat about making the indie gem in the lead up to the film’s world premiere at Fantastic Fest, the importance of tangible media in a digital age, and how the wickedly wacky nostalgic fever dream came to be.

Shot entirely on VHS, VHYES began as a series of shorts, the first of which was a porn parody called “Hot Winter.” The hilarious skit focuses on some very sexy scientists who just can’t wait to save the world from global warming and also have a bunch of sex. Robbins took the short to Sundance and then followed it up with the surreal Bob Ross riff “Painting with Joan” that imagines a public access TV painting series hosted by the titular artist. Both of those shorts feature in the tangled narrative of VHYES which plays as if you’ve found someone’s old VHS tape in a thrift store.

New Batman Creative Team to Push Bruce Wayne ‘To His Limits’

Big changes are coming for DC Comics’ Batman line in 2020. We already know current Batman writer Tom King is making the transition to a new monthly series called Batman/Catwoman in January. And now we know the creative team tapped to take over the flagship Batman comic.

As part of this year’s Batman Day festivities, DC revealed that writer James Tynion IV, artist Tony S. Daniel, inker Danny Miki and colorist Tomeu Morey will be taking over the series next year. These names should be immediately recognizable to Batman readers. Tynion is currently co-writing Justice League and recently wrapped up a multi-year run on Detective Comics. Daniel has a long history of drawing (and sometimes writing) the monthly Batman comic, including the current “City of Bane” storyline.

Amazon Has Great Deals on Some Batman Graphic Novels

Batman: Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo Box Set

batman box set 1

I cannot express how much I love Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s run on Batman, beginning with the seriously terrifying Court of Owls arc, expanding into the action-packed City of Owls, and concluding with the traumatic Death of the Family arc. Snyder’s writing feels like some of the smartest, and relies far more on Batman’s tenacity and wits than other adaptations that relied on his brute force and magical get-out-of-jail-free luck. Capullo’s illustration feels verbose and weighty, with Batman becoming visibly torn to pieces as the Court of Owls sinks their claws into him. $28 for three huge arcs is a steal by any measure.
