Discovering the Fortnite The Device location is the key to communicating with The Scientist and other members of The Seven. Finding The Device is the first leg of the Fortnite Chapter 3 season quests, however, The Device location isn't that obvious. This guide will assist you in pinpointing the whereabouts of the Fortnite The Device location.
How to start "The Device" challenge
Punchcard quests are no more in Chapter 3. Instead, challenges are split into daily, seasonal, and milestone quests. The very first season quest of Chapter 3 tasks Fortnite players with discovering The Device location. It's important to take care of this challenge early, as without The Device, you cannot complete the other season quests like placing Fortnite Surveillance Cameras and destroying Fortnite Signal Jammers.
Since discovering The Device location is the precursor to all Chapter 3 season quests, there are no prerequisites that you need to address ahead of time. It's possible to stumble upon The Device in your first match of Chapter 3.

Where can you find "The Device" in Fortnite?
Despite the singular name — The Device — there are actually several devices that players can discover. In total, there are ten different spawn points for Fortnite The Device.
You'll find The Device located within outposts belonging to The Seven. The image below displays all ten locations that house The Device:
Venture inside any of the outpost buildings marked above and lookout for a small briefcase with a blue light emitting from it. Interact with The Device to collect it. For your service, you will be awarded 25,000 XP toward your Chapter 3 - Season 1 progress.
After collecting The Device, you will receive a transmission from The Scientist letting you know that he'll be in touch. When your match is over, you will have access to three brand-new quests related to the new season's storyline.
With The Device in hand, you can start your journey into taking back the island and taking down the Imagined Order. This is only the beginning, so get ready for another action-packed chapter of Fortnite. Wondering what the deal is with Peter Parker? Check out our Fortnite Spider-Man guide.
