The Ferrari is Italian pride in the field of motoring. On the other hand, who has never dreamed of driving a car from the Maranello company? Another proof of the global success of this historic company has also arrived in the videogame field, and no, I am not referring to a classic title dedicated to engines.

Preliminary information

Before going into the details of the procedure on how to find the Ferrari 296 GTB on Fortnite, I think it might interest you to know more about the context in which this coveted car arrived within the Epic Games title.

Well, the release of the Ferrari 296 GTB took place in the context of Season 7 of Chapter 2 of Fortnite. To be clear, the same in which the skins of LeBron James, Loki and Rick Sanchez of Rick and Morty arrived. However, in this case it is not a “custom”, but something different.

In fact, in case you don’t know, starting from August 2020, or from Season 3 of Chapter 2 of the Epic Games title, it is possible to use cars inside Fortnite. These vehicles allow you to quickly move around the game map during the Battle Royale, giving users the option of not having to walk.

There are various types of vehicles in Fortnite, from supercars to trucks. The former, for example, can be particularly useful in areas where there is a road, while the latter can be useful when you want to “go straight” perhaps to go to the safe area, passing through areas not properly designed for vehicles.

In this context, also given the popularity of the title involved, it was therefore almost “inevitable” that sooner or later some car manufacturer would have made an agreement with Epic Games to bring some cars into Fortnite (and thus put it in beautiful display to a wide audience, as well as potentially making it the “object of desire” of many, although it was also previously).

On the other hand, the Ferrari 296 GTB, which replaces the F8 Tributo, was actually announced at the end of June 2021, presenting, among other things, a welcome return. In fact, if you have a few years on your shoulders or if you know the world of cars well, you will surely remember the Dino 246 (1969/1973). The latter featured a central V6 engine, now back with the new car.

In short, shortly after being unveiled in the real world, the car also landed in Fortnite, in a period that is certainly not accidental. It is not clear at the official level how long the car will remain usable in the game, but I advise you to carry out the operations that I am going to explain to you during Season 3 of Chapter 2 (which will end on September 12, 2021).

Online reference is made to the fact that the Ferrari 296 GTB could remain within the Epic Games title until October 6, 2021, but I cannot be sure of the latter information. In any case, the advice is clearly to follow the instructions below in the right time frame, in order to actually be able to achieve the goal.

How to find the Ferrari 296 GTB on Fortnite

After explaining the situation to you in general, I’d say it’s time to take action, actually explaining to you where to find the Ferrari 296 GTB on Fortnite.

Well, once you’ve entered a common Battle Royale game, you just need to go to a few specific points on the map. In fact, there is nothing to unlock this time: simply, Epic Games enjoyed “scattering” here and there some Ferrari 296 GTBs, which players can then “compete” with.

Let me explain: clearly, these cars are particularly fast and can therefore allow you to reach the possible safe zone or the area that shrinks with the passage of time during the Battle Royale, in no time at all.

This means that, unlike skins, machines of this type are coveted not only for their aesthetics but also for what they allow in terms of gameplay. In fact, they can potentially guarantee a certain competitive advantage, so you can imagine how much they are “coveted” by other players.

Once you arrive in the area where a Ferrari 296 GTB “resides”, you may therefore already find other players lurking, ready to defeat those who want to get the car. In addition, maybe you could find users who are competing for the car, putting in place the saying “between the two litigators the third enjoys”.

In short, anything could happen. Precisely for this reason, trying to allow everyone to try a Ferrari 296 GTB on Fortnite anyway, sooner or later, Epic Games has decided to place several cars throughout the game map.

However, it seems that there is no “safe place” in which this type of machine appears, as you understand well that developers can change, perhaps even by means of a random algorithm, the point in which they appear.

Despite this, the community seems to have managed to find a “pattern” to have a good chance of “meeting” the Ferrari 296 GTB without having to play too many Battle Royale games. The method that I advise you to implement is therefore simply to try to search during the games in the areas that I am about to show you.

Generally, the most “suitable” places to find the car would be Sweaty Sands / Cala Credente or at most Pantano Palpitating. Usually, the places where Ferrari 296 GTBs appear in these areas are bridges or hotel parking lots.

However, it is actually also good to take a look at areas such as Lake Languido and its gas station or Hedges of Holly / Vivaio Verde and its garages. Clearly, these aren’t the only places you can find cars within Fortnite, but these pointers can potentially help you reach your goal more quickly.

In any case, I would like to reiterate the fact that developers could make changes to this game mechanic at any moment.

For example, in some weeks of Season 7 of Chapter 2 it was possible for players to complete assignments related to the Ferrari 296 GTB, but these were only available for a limited time.

How to use the Ferrari 296 GTB in Fortnite

How do you say? Do you know where to find the Ferrari 296 GTB inside the Fortnite map, but you haven’t quite understood how the mechanics work to use the cars? No problem, I’ll immediately explain everything you need to know.

By itself, using cars in Fortnite is simple and intuitive. However, if you have not thoroughly investigated this possibility offered by the title of Epic Games, perhaps because so far you have preferred to play in a more “reasoned” way, avoiding the use of vehicles that can make others “discover” your position, you may have some doubts. regarding fuel management.

In fact, you must know that, once you have found the car, you cannot simply use the Ferrari 296 GTB as you wish for the entire duration of the game, but you also have to deal with jerry cans and petrol stations.

To prevent users from “abusing” cars, which can actually lead to a certain competitive advantage in the game, Epic Games has well thought of inserting the mechanics of fuel, which among other things is “given” sparingly within the map. .

If the car’s tank is empty, you won’t be able to move it anymore (so you won’t even be able to take it to the nearest petrol station). In any case, the Ferrari 296 GTB already has a certain amount of fuel at its base, which allows you to use it right away to move around the map.

You can see how much fuel the car has just before you get on it: under the button to interact with it , there is an indication about it. For the rest, if you want to prevent the tank from becoming empty, you can go to a petrol station or use the petrol cans.

Upon reaching a service station, which you can find around a bit ‘all over the map, to fill the tank of the Ferrari 296 GTB’ll just park it close to the station, clearly paying attention to the possible arrival of enemies, interact with the pump closer and direct it to the car.

For the rest, petrol cans are another great way to fill the car tank: you just need to find this object around the map, possibly fill it through a pump at a service station and keep it in the inventory until it won’t come in handy.

In short, now you also know the details of the mechanics of the fuel and therefore you should not have problems enjoying the Ferrari 296 GTB as it should be within the Epic Games title. In any case, since you are a fan of this video game, I would like to advise you to take a look at the page of my site dedicated to Fortnite, where you can find many other tutorials that could provide you with ideas for your gaming sessions.
