Fortnite is filled with different types of weapons and items players can choose to use depending on how they prefer to play the game. As part of the Shadow of Phantasm week, Epic Games re-introduced some of the old items, mostly stealth-theme items, to Fortnite. One of these items was Shield Bubble and here is how to use it in Fortnite.
How to Use a Shield Bubble in Fortnite
Shield Bubble was one of many items that were added to the game as part of Shadow of Phantasm. The item works like a sticky grenade, but instead of an explosion, it creates an invulnerable shield to projectiles and explosives.
It is not stealthy as the rest of the items re-introduced to the game but it can be a life savior, especially if you are a solo player. Not only that, but some of the quests related to Shadow of Phantasm ask players to use the re-introduced item, including the Shield Bubble.
Shield Bubble can be found on ground loot and regular chests throughout the map, but to save some time it is best to go straight to locations where you can find many loots. Once you find it, the next task is how to use it.
The shield Bubble function is the same as a sticky grenade, but it creates a shield for 30 seconds instead of an explosion, once you throw it. The blue shield will be invulnerable to projectiles and explosives from both sides, but it can be walked through.

The best scenario to use a Shield Bubble is when you have to heal yourself and revive a teammate during a battle sequence. You can also use this item to create a shield for the vehicle you are driving. Simply throw the Shield Bubble on the roof of the car before you enter it.
Fortnite is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
