Where to find Treasure Maps in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3
FortniteA pirate’s true calling in Fortnite Cursed Sails is to snag Treasured Maps and find the buried treasure. If you’re looking for one, we’ve got you covered with this guide.
With the arrival of the Pirates of the Caribbean-themed event in Fortnite, the game shifts from its usual apocalypse theme to welcome Jack Sparrow, his ship glider, and the iconic Flint-Knock Pistol. While these items match the pirate theme, the unvaulted Buried Treasure maps fit it even better.
Fortnite has unvaulted the Buried Treasure maps from Season 9 to take the Cursed Sails Pirates of the Caribbean event to the next level.
How to get Buried Treasure Maps in Fortnite
Epic Games/DexertoYou can find Buried Treasure maps on the floor or inside regular yellow and gold chests during the Cursed Sails event. Alternatively, you can purchase Buried Treasure maps from Jack Sparrow and Elizabeth Swann, two Pirates of the Caribbean NPCs, for 300 Gold.
Here are all the NPCs that sell this item:
- Jack Sparrow: Located south of Grand Glacier, right in front of the docked ship.
- Elizabeth Swann: Located in Pleasant Piazza.
- Captain Barbossa is located in Shipwreck Shallows and Davey Jones is located west of The Underworld, but neither of them sells the Buried Treasure map.
Each NPC has only one Buried Treasure map in store, so if someone else snags it first, your only choice is to look for it inside chests.
