Megalo Don is a boss in Fortnite and although they can be difficult to defeat, the rewards they get in the end are well worth it. In case of defeat, you can recover Don’s vehicle from the nearby garage, its Nitro Fist Mythical Item and high-level loot. That’s not all – get his Medallion to imbue yourself with Nitro.
Your first task will be to locate this Fortnite Wrecked boss and get there without anyone else eliminating you. Also, we warn you now, this is an extremely popular boss currently and is a very hot drop zone – be prepared to fight to survive before you even face Don.
Without further ado, here is where to find and how to beat Megalo Don in Fortnite.

How to beat Megalo Don in Fortnite
To beat Megalo Don in Fortnite, you must go prepared with full shields And at least two fully loaded rapid-fire or high-powered weapons which are good at mid-range.
Just like other bosses you’ve encountered in previous seasons, Megalo Don has two bars above his head: a shield bar and a health bar. You first need to break his shield bar and you do this by attacking him repeatedly, but it’s not as easy as it seems.
Megalo Don does not fight fairly and several NPC minions will join the fight. Once they appear, be sure to keep your distance from Megalo Don while you deal with him first – otherwise you might find yourself getting hit by Don’s Nitro Fists.
Once the NPCs are eliminated, continue attacking Don until his shield bar breaks, but don’t get complacent, you’re only halfway there.
When you break Don’s shield bar, he will then do a Nitro Boost himself and his attacks will become much more dangerous than before. At this point, more NPC minions may also appear. When Megalo Don is in this Nitro state for the latter part of the fight, we highly recommend using a powerful weapon with a decent attack range. Don’t get too close to him.
Keep attacking this boss until his health bar has dropped to zero and he eventually explodes into a pile of high-tier loot.
That’s all for the moment! We hope you enjoy Fortnite Wrecked.
