Thanks to the season reveal trailer, we're aware of three exciting methods to access Vaults during *Fortnite*'s Lawless season:
- Deploy the brand-new Rocket Drill to bore your way into a Vault.
- Grab the Plasma Burst Rifle and use its laser to cut through the entrance.
- Attach the new Meltanite TNT explosive to the door and blast your way inside.
There could be additional methods to breach Vaults, as past seasons have used keycards or required completing certain tasks. For now, it looks like brute force and a bit of patience will be your best bet. We'll keep you posted on any new ways to open Vaults as the season rolls out on February 21.
As with previous seasons, be ready to face tough opposition from enemy AI guarding the Vaults or from other players aiming for the same high-tier loot.
