Fortnite Hunters introduces an exciting array of new features, including the intriguing Oni Masks, which add a layer of mystical strategy to the popular Battle Royale game. These masks, inspired by Japanese mythology, grant unique abilities that can significantly impact gameplay. Here’s a comprehensive guide on the Oni Masks available in Fortnite and how to acquire them.
Updated on January 14, 2025, by Nathan Round: The Oni Masks are highly sought-after items, and while luck plays a role in obtaining them, there are now two guaranteed methods to acquire them. This guide has been updated to include how to get Oni Masks from Daigo, as well as another reliable location that offers both masks for free, guaranteed every time.
The Void Oni Mask is a top choice for mobility in Fortnite. Players can throw a Void Tear using the Shoot Button and then teleport to its location by using the Aim Button while the mask is equipped. The Epic Variant of the Void Oni Mask offers 15 uses with a 5-second cooldown, while the Mythic version provides an impressive 50 uses.
The Fire Oni Mask, in contrast, is geared towards offensive play. Players can launch a guided flame projectile by pressing the Fire Button, dealing 100 damage to any opponent it hits. This projectile can affect multiple opponents if they are close together. The Fire Oni Mask has 8 uses and an 8-second cooldown, while the Mythic variant boasts 16 uses.
The most straightforward method to obtain Oni Masks is by looting Elemental Chests. These chests guarantee an elemental item, which can include both Boons and Oni Masks. Both the Void and Fire Oni Masks can be found this way, though it does require some luck. Named Points of Interest (POIs) on the Fortnite map offer the best chances of finding Elemental Chests.
Another way to acquire Oni Masks is by defeating Demon Warriors, located at specific spots marked by an Oni Mask icon on the map. While these warriors don't always drop an Oni Mask, they can yield either a Void or Fire Oni Mask, depending on what they are equipped with. Defeating them also offers the chance to obtain Typhoon Blades and Fire or Void Boons.
In addition to Elemental Chests and defeating bosses, regular Chests provide a chance to find Oni Masks at Epic Rarity. This method, however, relies heavily on luck.
For those seeking a guaranteed way to obtain both Oni Masks, they can be purchased from Daigo at Masked Meadows using Gold Bars. To unlock this option, players must complete all stages of Daigo's Mask Expertise Quests.
For a hassle-free acquisition, players can head to Daigo's hidden workshop located beneath the building on the north side of Masked Meadows. A machine there, which can be looted like a regular chest, will drop both the Void and Fire Oni Masks.
To acquire the Mythic Oni Masks, players must defeat specific bosses. The Mythic Void Oni Mask is dropped by Night Rose at Demon's Dojo, while the Mythic Fire Oni Mask is obtained by defeating Shogun X at Shogun's Arena. These Mythic masks function similarly to their Epic counterparts but offer more uses.
