Mortal Kombat makes a thrilling return to Fortnite! While fans have already enjoyed the presence of Sub-Zero, Scorpion is now here as a limited-time boss. Players can engage in battle for a special Medallion reward, but beware: he has multiple spawn points and poses a significant challenge.
Where to Find Scorpion in Fortnite
Scorpion can appear in these locations across your Fortnite map:
- Southwest of Flooded Frogs
- East of Shining Span
- In the underground tunnels of Masked Meadows
Check your map at the start of your match to see which Point of Interest (POI) is highlighted with Scorpion’s Medallion icon. Upon arrival at these locations, you’ll discover a gong to activate and a pair of Sub-Zero gloves to aid you in the upcoming battle.



When you ring the gong, Scorpion will emerge at the center of the arena, with the iconic Mortal Kombat sounds playing: “3, 2, 1, Fight!” If you defeat him, you’ll earn the First Blood Medallion, Scorpion’s Mythic Kombat Kit, and other rewards.
Effective Strategies to Defeat Scorpion in Fortnite
Scorpion possesses powerful short-range and long-range attacks, influenced by your proximity to him and other players. His spear attack can pull you closer while inflicting damage, followed by a fiery breath after he reveals his skull face.
Don’t underestimate his close-range combat abilities! Scorpion can unleash fierce punches and kicks, combined with fire damage. Stay agile — most of his attacks are dodgeable if you use traversal tools or strafe while attacking.

To maximize your chances, gather shield potions and carry medkits. Securing Sub-Zero’s Kombat Kit first will streamline your fight by reducing the time spent searching for weapons. Always be cautious of his spear, and monitor your surroundings for other players.
Upon successfully defeating Scorpion, you’ll be rewarded with his Mythic Kombat Kit and the First Blood Medallion, which enhances your first shot from a reloaded magazine, causing it to explode.
