NPCs have been in Fortnite for a long time, and sometimes they can be very useful for players. At the same time, Epic Games sometimes uses them as a tool for completing quests, so it’s important to know where to find these NPCs in Fortnite. These NPCs can also join your team and fight alongside you for a certain Gold Bar. On the other hand, you can use the Gold Bar to buy certain items from them. Now, let’s take a look at the locations of all NPCs in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1 whether you want to hire them or buy an item.
1. Sun Tan Specialist
We can say that Sun Tan Specialist is the medic of NPCs. In Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1, the Sun Tan Specialist is located on the beach at the bottom left of the map. You can find some chests and a relatively decent amount of loot at this location.
