In a fast-paced Fortnite match, the difference between winning and losing often depends on the slimmest of margins. If you want a chance to break out your sweet dance moves in that Victory Royale moment, you need to keep your team at full strength, no matter how many teammates you have.
Reboot Vans are the key to staying competitive (unless you like carrying your whole team for the entire match). It’s essential that everyone on your team knows exactly where all the Reboot Van locations are, so this post will show you the latest Van spots in Chapter 6, Season 2, and give you some tips on how to use them effectively.
The Reboot Van system is such a great success that Epic even included it in the refreshed version of OG Fortnite. If you want to glide headfirst into nostalgia territory, there are OG Fortnite accounts for sale that let you battle as a blinged-out character with plenty of rare items and skins.
A Quick Refresher on Reboot Vans
RVs are only available in Battle Royale matches with Duos, Trios, and Squads. If you only play BR Solos or Creative mode, you may not be familiar with Fortnite’s Reboot Van system, so let’s cover the basics of how the Reboot Van system works!
A Reboot Van from the official Patch 8.3 update notes
If you get downed in a team match, you drop a Reboot card that stays available for 90 seconds. One of your teammates can grab your Reboot card and then take it over to a Reboot Van to bring you back to life.
Obviously, this ability makes Reboot Vans one of the most essential features of the game when playing in teams. Knowing the locations of every Reboot Van can be the difference between a frustrating loss and reaching that sweet Victory Royale.
Of course, it’s not all perfect. Using a Reboot Van takes 10 precious seconds, although this goes faster if you have multiple teammates helping. Once the Reboot process is completed, the Van flashes its headlights and honks its horn, then a glowing blue icon appears above it, alerting any nearby enemies to your location (and your team’s weakened state!).
A Map of Reboot Van Locations in Chapter 6: Season 2
To help keep the game fresh and exciting, Epic changes up the locations of each Reboot Van at the start of every new season as part of the regular map updates.
You could play over and over again until you find all the new Reboot Van locations for yourself, but that would take forever! It’s much easier to check out the map below for an easy visual overview of every Reboot Van location.

Quick Tips for Using Reboot Vans in Fortnite
Here are some handy tips for using Reboot Vans safely and effectively:
- Use a vehicle when possible. If an enemy team shows up while you’re Rebooting, a vehicle can give you enough cover to finish the Reboot process — or a quick escape to find another Reboot Van location.
- Scout the Reboot Van location carefully. Don’t just run straight up to the Reboot Van, since some teams will stake out the Van locations to score an easy team wipe. Check to make sure there’s nobody hiding nearby waiting to attack!
- Avoid Vans in high-traffic areas. The Reboot Vans located at named POIs are easy to find, but they’re also in busy areas that can be very risky to visit. If possible, go for a Reboot Van location that’s out of the way.
- Gear up your Rebooted teammate. Once your teammate Reboots, they will need some better gear immediately! Share any spare gear you can afford to give up, or loot some new gear for them to make sure they can contribute to the battle.
In Conclusion
Reboot Vans are the key to victory when you’re playing Fortnite with teammates, so every member of your team should know all the best Reboot Van locations in Chapter 6 Season 2. You might even want to keep the map open on your phone while you play until you learn them all.
Since you’re already planning for victory, you’ll want to show off next time you win. If you need to spruce up your character, you can buy V-Bucks cheap and spend them on emotes and items to make your vanquished enemies regret the day they messed with you.
Good luck, and remember to thank your bus driver!
