How to Hide in Haystacks and Dumpsters in Fortnite Chapter 2

This one is nice and easy: to hide in haystacks and dumpsters simply walk over to them and follow the prompt as it appears. Basically, anything you can get inside of will bring up a button prompt (Square on PS4 or X on Xbox One). Simply hold the appropriate button and you’ll hop inside and hide, then press it again to hop back out.

Take note, though, while they make convenient hiding spots they don’t provide much in the way of protection; enemies can destroy the cover while you’re inside to reveal your whereabouts/ location.

Time needed: 1 minute

Here’s the TL;DR to sum up:

  1. Locate a haystack or dumpster and approach it.

  2. Wait for the button prompt and then hop in using either Square (PS4) or X (Xbox One).

  3. Press the same button to exit.
