This week’s fresh batch of Fortnite weekly challenges has arrived!

With season seven halfway through, the alien theme continues, but there are other things to do – such as planting wiretaps.

Luckily, we know exactly where you need to go in Fortnite to find one. And you will want to do this, as not only will you get some XP for doing so, but you will also annoy those pesky IO guards in the process, which is always worthwhile.

The challenge fits in with many other IO guard related tasks for this week and you will also need to steal an access card from one too.

But back to the wiretaps – here is all you need to do to go about planting them in Fortnite!
