Fortnite Peter Griffin guide: how to unlock the skin and beat the boss

Billy Givens
By

If there’s one thing you can count on in each season of Fortnite, it’s that there will be an exciting new crossover or two to keep various fandoms on their toes. We’ve seen everything from Star Wars to Attack on Titan to Futurama, and chapter 5, season 1 is here to surprise us yet again with the shocking addition of Family Guy‘s Peter Griffin. The beloved cartoon character makes an appearance in multiple capacities, serving both as a boss that can be defeated and a skin that you can unlock in the battle pass. In this guide, we’ll tell you how to get the skin for yourself, as well as how to tackle the boss battle against everyone’s favorite lovable oaf.

How to get the Peter Griffin skin

Peter Griffin’s skins can be unlocked in the chapter 5, season 1 battle pass, which can be purchased for 950 V-Bucks.

You’ll find Peter Griffin’s first skin on Page 11 of the battle pass, so you’ll need to reach level 70 to unlock it. However, you can also score two alternate skins for the character by completing all 100 levels of the battle pass and proceeding to Page 2 of the Bonus Rewards section. It’s also possible that additional Peter Griffin alternate skins will be added to these Bonus Rewards in the coming weeks as new skins are revealed for this extra layer of the battle pass.

Peter Griffin can be found at Snooty Steppes. He’s encountered in the large villa on the highest steppe on the far left side of the point of interest.

Seeing as he’s a boss, it’s best that you come into the battle well-prepared, so loot the surrounding area for at least a gun or two, plenty of ammo, and full shields. When you’re ready to face him, head inside to find him walking around wearing his golden suit, at which point he’s likely to notice you, too, and begin firing.

Start the fight off by aiming for his rather large head and dealing out as much damage as possible while staying close to a pillar or wall you can use to hide behind if needed. He’ll charge at you, so make use of this cover to reload and then pop back out for more damage opportunities when he’s doing the same. Beware that he may throw some explosives at you, so don’t hesitate and end up blown to smithereens. If you need to recoup, find a safe spot and heal up quickly, then resume your assault.

When Peter Griffin goes down, you can loot him for his Mythic Hammer Pump Shotgun and a boss medallion you can pick up to constantly regain shields throughout the remainder of the match. You can also use the medallion to open the vault nearby to find some chests and a Weapon Mod Bench.

Should you pick Claude or Rena in Star Ocean: The Second Story R
Star Ocean: The Second Story R

Star Ocean: The Second Story R is a remake of 1998's second entry in the space-centric role-playing universe of Star Ocean, but despite its many improvements, the core design of the original game remains almost fully intact. This includes its offering of dual protagonists, one of which you'll have to pick as your main character at the beginning of a playthrough. If you're wondering which you should pick first, we'll give you some information below without going too far into spoiler territory.
Should you pick Claude or Rena first?
Regardless of whether you pick Claude or Rena for your playthrough of Star Ocean: The Second Story R, the game's mainline narrative will remain the same from beginning to end. However, the two characters will witness many major events from their own perspective, giving you a bit of additional insight into how they feel about what's happening. Additionally, they'll each have access to one exclusive recruitable character. This means that you'll have to play through the game twice if you want to see the full story of the two recruitable characters and see what they bring to the table in combat.

Here are three key things to keep in mind when choosing the character for your first playthrough:

How to show all collectibles in Alan Wake 2 with the Mayor Setter Charm
Mayor Setter

There are a lot of collectibles to find in Alan Wake 2, so you're probably wondering if there's a way to show them all on your map. The answer is yes, but only when having the Mayor Setter Charm equipped, which you can't obtain until pretty late in the game by visiting Mayor Setter himself. When that time comes, you may be shocked to find that Mayor Setter is actually a dog. Less shocking, however, is that you'll probably want to pet him.

Luckily, in addition to being a pleasant experience, petting this political canine will accomplish multiple useful things. For starters, you'll earn the trophy or achievement called "The Nice Things in Life," which marks one more thing off your list for 100% completion. But perhaps most importantly, Mayor Setter will bestow upon you the aforementioned Mayor Setter Charm. When wearing this charm in one of your charm slots, you'll be able to spot the locations of basically any collectible on the map, making tracking everything down significantly easier without a guide.

Mayor Setter will spawn in the game in Return 6 after you've spoken with your colleagues in the police station and selected to continue exploring instead of passing the point of no return. At this point, you can return to your car and drive to Watery to find that Mayor Setter is sitting on the stage inside Suomi Hall where you can interact with him to earn the Mayor Setter Charm, which you can then equip to show all unfound collectibles on the map.
