'Fortnite' - How to Make Stark Robot Dance Week 5 Challenge Guide

Fortnite Season 4 Week 5 Challenges have arrived, and one of the stranger tasks on the list asks players to make a Stark Robot dance. In this guide, we'll explain where to find Stark Robots and what you can do to make them bust a move.

Where to find Stark Robots in Fortnite

The first thing to know about Fortnite's Stark Robots is that they only spawn in traditional Solos, Duos and Squads queues. That means, unlike some of the location-based challenges that are best suited for Team Rumble, this one requires going into a more dangerous match type. Of the three options, Squads makes the most sense, as it ensures you'll have others around you in the event you get stuck.

Once you've made it to the correct queue, Stark Robots are found in two places on the Battle Royale map: patrolling the main Stark Industries building at Stark Industries and near Quinjet Patrol landing sites. Quinjet Patrol areas are marked with a white plane icon on the Battle Royale map and can also be seen when dropping from the Battle Bus near large plumes of purple smoke. Regardless of where you choose to encounter a Stark Robot, they're not a difficult spawn to find.

As you approach the location, it helps to have some basic weapons and maybe a health kit available, too. You need to fight the robots in order to make them dance, so don't engage without the proper gear.

How to make a Stark Robot dance

Find a Stark Robot to target, and shoot it with your weapon until it's taken down. They'll fall after a few shots, and you'll be given the option to "hack" them if you approach their downed body. Press and hold the displayed button, wait for a few seconds and the robot will get back up.

Now all you've got to do is perform your favorite dance emote by pressing d-pad down, "B" on keyboard or by tapping "!" on mobile. As long as you do so while in the area of a hacked Stark Robot, it will respond with a very appropriate robot dance.
