Predator arrived in Fortnite Battle Royale just a week after the character’s ship landed on the island, and he brought a brand new weapon – or ability – into battle.
One of the most popular abilities in Fortnite, almost since Day 1, is finding ways to become invisible. Out of sight of enemies, and to give yourself a huge advantage.
In the past, this has been achieved with the use of invisible items previously added, or just mistakes that make players nearly impossible to take down.
However, a legal way to do this – for a limited time – is now in play.
How to use Predator’s Cloak device in Fortnite
The first look at the Predator Cloak Device shows that the process of actually using it is quite simple.
As seen below, you only need to activate it in a message from HYPEX once you come across one and you immediately become invisible.
This is not the first item added to Fortnite that makes players invisible, with Shadow Stones appearing in the past. Although developers hope that the rollout of this capability does not look as glossy as the ones that came before.
Mantle Device Statistics
We know not only how it works, but also the statistics for it. It takes 30 seconds and requires a cooling of the same amount each time, as seen below HYPEX again.
Players can activate it, of course, though we now know that the NPC Predator can do that too. This is going to make the character a little harder to defeat than others.
How to get Fortnite Predator Cloak Device
The Predator device can be acquired by taking down Predator in the game, just like any other boss who added the game during season 5.
After visiting Predator’s location and knocking down the character, it will drop the following, as well as ammo and Floppers.
That’s it! Now you know how to use the Predator Cloak Device, and it looks like it’s going to be difficult to get one in the game – especially if the NPC uses it to escape your gunfire!
