Peter Griffin, the iconic and hilarious patriarch from Family Guy, has officially landed in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1, and players are eager to add him to their collection. Beyond just a skin, Peter Griffin plays a significant role in the new season as a boss you can encounter and battle. This guide will detail everything you need to know about finding Peter Griffin, facing him in combat, and ultimately unlocking his character skins in Fortnite.
Confronting Peter Griffin as a Boss at Snooty Steps
If you’re looking to test your skills against Peter Griffin himself, you’ll need to head to Snooty Steps. This new location on the Fortnite Chapter 5 map is situated in the southwestern area and is where Peter has set up shop, sporting his extravagant Gold Plated suit.
Peter is not alone; he’s a member of “The Society” and is heavily guarded. Expect to face a challenging fight against Peter and his entourage of Legion Guards, including Heavy Elites and Heavy Grunts. Be prepared for a significant battle as Peter boasts substantial health and rechargeable shields, making him a formidable opponent.
A key advantage in locating Peter Griffin is his Society Medallion. As a boss, he possesses this item, which makes his location visible on the map. However, this also means other players will be vying to take him down. You might choose to engage immediately or strategically wait for other players to weaken him before you jump into the fray.
Successfully defeating Peter Griffin yields valuable rewards. He will drop his Society Medallion, which provides a boost to your shield recharge rate. Additionally, you’ll acquire Peter Griffin’s Hammer Pump Shotgun, a powerful weapon to add to your arsenal.
Unlocking the Peter Griffin Skins: Battle Pass and Beyond
While battling Peter Griffin is rewarding, obtaining him as a playable skin requires progressing through the Chapter 5 Season 1 Battle Pass. To unlock the base Peter Griffin skin, you must first purchase the Battle Pass and then reach level 70. Once you’ve reached level 70, the Peter Griffin skin will become available for purchase using 950 V-Bucks.
But the Peter Griffin skin options don’t stop there. By fully completing all 100 levels of the Battle Pass, you unlock access to Bonus Rewards pages. On page 2 of the Bonus Rewards, you can unlock two additional Peter Griffin styles: Fancy Peter Griffin and Gold Plated Peter Griffin. The Gold Plated version is the same suit he wears as a boss NPC, allowing you to truly embody the character in all his golden glory.
Given Peter Griffin’s immense popularity, it’s possible that Epic Games may introduce even more variations or potentially other Family Guy characters into Fortnite in the future. For now, focus on conquering Snooty Steps and progressing through the Battle Pass to secure your Peter Griffin skins and enjoy playing as this hilarious and chaotic character in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1.
