Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 4 introduces the new Chrome Splash element.
Not only can it be used to walk through the Fortnite map, there’s also an additional effect that allows you to pass through walls. This all ties into the chrome theme that is front and center in the new season.
You’ll want to know where to find Chrome Splash in Fortnite and how to use it to move through walls. It can be a great way to gain an edge over your opponents, and there are several challenges that can be completed using Chrome Splash in different ways. If you want to start leveling up your shiny new Battle Pass, using Chrome Splash is a great place to start. Here’s how it works.

Fortnite Chrome Splash Locations
Chrome Splash can be found as floor loot in Fortnite. This means you can see him lying on the ground or in chests you open. Also watch out for chrome chests, as they have a higher chance of containing chrome items and weapons, like EvoChrome weapons. You can see a screenshot of what Chrome Splash looks like below:
Note that in-game Chrome Splash will be a purple (Epic) pickup. Look for bright spots of purple light to find him!
How to use Chrome Splash
Chrome Splash functions as a disposable item. Throw it next to you to paint yourself chrome. You are now in the chrome state. Press the left stick to transform into a chrome blob (blobify and deblobify). By moving like the blob, you can travel much faster than on foot. Double jumping while tapping will allow you to move forward, similar to how the Zero Point Fish worked last season. You can also dash with the left trigger. Fall damage is negated in this state, but be aware that being a drop of chrome is quite a noise.
You can also apply chrome to other players by splashing them with the item. Try throwing a Chrome Splash at a teammate to put them in the Chromed state.
How to pass through walls
Another neat thing about Chrome Splash is that it can be used to move through walls. Just throw one at a wall and you’ll see a strange blob of chrome you can move through. You will then cross the wall on the other side. It can be a great way to evade attacks or flank enemies.
