The LMG has appeared on the Island that comes with a relatively fast firing rate and 60-round magazine. The longer you hold down its trigger, the more manageable its recoil becomes.

However, many players are baffled about where to find the new LMG in Fortnite Chapter 3 exactly. With that in mind, here’s a comprehensive guide to finding this new ultimate shotgun.

Similar to other Fortnite weapons, the LMG typically spawns on the ground at various random locations. Therefore, there’s no exact location where players can get it.

In addition to this, players can also grab it by opening chests and supply drops. A few NPCs also sell Light Machine Gun (LMG) in exchange for gold when it comes to other ways of acquiring it.

Fortnite guns are classified into different rarities, and the new LMG is no different. The developers have differentiated this new gun into five rarities – Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary.

Players should also note that LMG has first-shot accuracy, so it is slightly effective at medium-long ranges.
