Fortnite Spy Probes location: Where to place spy probes in Fortnite Season 7

With the alien Mothership in Fortnite abducting major landmarks in-game, it's only a matter of time before smaller POIs meet the same fate. While this would be devastating to the island's inhabitants and the resistance, this could be a double edged sword for the aliens.

After careful observation of the alien invaders, Dr. Slone believes that she can trick the Mothership into abducting Spy Probes. These could be used to gather intelligence and information about the alien vessel's movement and also gain insights into their masterplan.

To make the plan work, Dr. Slone has calculated that at least three Spy Probes will have to be abducted by the aliens. Although the plan is dangerous, she's willing to reward 30,000 experience points to anyone brave enough to execute the task.

How to complete the "Place Spy Probes" Fortnite week 9 Legendary challenge

To complete this Fortnite challenge, players must place three Spy Probes in predetermined locations on the island. This challenge does not need to be completed in one match.

While there are several locations where players can place Spy Probes, Retail Row is by far the best one, as there are three predetermined locations in the area. While this is the best location to complete this challenge, it is also unfortunately a hot-drop zone, which will make it harder to complete the challenge.
