Fortnite: How to Locate Birthday Medallions

Epic Games has reintroduced Balloons in Fortnite, but they will only be available for a limited time—just one week. After the seventh Birthday Quests conclude, the Balloons will be removed from the game. Therefore, players eager to take advantage of this fun feature should dive into the game as soon as possible.

This guide will help players locate Birthday Medallions in Fortnite, ensuring they can sport Balloons during their matches.

How to Find Birthday Medallions in Fortnite

To obtain a Birthday Medallion, players need to find and loot a Birthday Present. These Legendary-Rarity items can appear as floor loot, within containers, or in supply drops.

Finding a Birthday Present relies heavily on random number generation (RNG). Once players locate one, they can access its contents by tossing it on the ground and opening one of its sides.

How to Equip and Unequip Balloons in Fortnite

After securing a Birthday Medallion, players will automatically start accumulating Balloons over time—there’s no manual equipping involved. To remove Balloons, players should jump while at least one Balloon is attached to their character and then hit the "release a Balloon" button that will pop up on the screen.

With this guide, you’re all set to find Birthday Medallions and enjoy the whimsical fun of Balloons in Fortnite while they last!
