The wildly popular battle royale game Fortnite has just launched its highly anticipated crossover event with the iconic animated series South Park. Titled 'Born in Chaos', this collaboration is now live in Chapter 7 Season 1, introducing a suite of themed cosmetics and, more importantly, several game-changing items that can alter the core gameplay experience.
Epic Games has integrated three unique items from the South Park universe directly into the Fortnite island. These are not just cosmetic additions; they are functional tools that can provide significant strategic advantages. Players can now hunt for The Stick of Truth, Kenny’s Respawn Token, and Cheesy Poofs, each designed to serve a distinct and powerful purpose during matches.
How to Find and Use The Stick of Truth
The most impactful item from this collaboration is undoubtedly The Stick of Truth. Classified as a Mythic item, its power is immense: it allows the player who holds it to choose the location of the final storm circle. This can decisively tilt the endgame in your favor.
However, obtaining this item requires specific steps. The Stick of Truth does not appear as standard floor loot. Instead, players must wait for a special in-game event called the "Stick of Truth Rift Anomaly" to trigger. Once this event occurs, head to the performance stage at the Cartmanland point of interest. There, you will find the Mythic item resting on a red cushion.
Activating the item lets you designate the final safe zone's position. Since it's a single-use item, the best strategy is to save it for the late-game phase. Use it to force remaining opponents into a disadvantageous position, such as open water or directly toward your fortified high ground.
Securing an Extra Life with Kenny’s Respawn Token
For players tired of being eliminated early, Kenny’s Respawn Token offers a precious second chance. This item acts as an automatic extra life, reviving you shortly after you are eliminated in a match.
While there's a small chance of finding it in random chests, there is one guaranteed method to acquire it. You must visit the Chaosblast shooting gallery located in the center of Cartmanland. Interact with the white button to start a minigame and score at least 28 points. Success will cause a cannon to fire the Respawn Token onto the ground for you to collect.
Using the token is passive; simply having it in your inventory is enough. When you get eliminated, the token will automatically activate and bring you back into the fight.
The Versatile Power of Cheesy Poofs
The third new addition, Cheesy Poofs, is a multi-functional consumable that can be found as common floor loot or inside chests. Its uses are versatile: you can eat them to restore your own health, even while sprinting, which is a key advantage in fast-paced combat.
Beyond personal healing, Cheesy Poofs can be thrown. Toss them at allies to heal their health, or lob them at enemies to deal damage. This dual-purpose functionality makes it a highly tactical item for both supporting your squad and applying pressure on foes.
The 'Born in Chaos' event marks another major pop culture moment for Fortnite, seamlessly blending South Park's chaotic humor with the game's dynamic battle royale mechanics. These three items add a fresh layer of strategy and fun to Chapter 7 Season 1, encouraging players to explore Cartmanland and master their new abilities to secure that coveted Victory Royale.
