Straight out of Rocket League, the Octane Vehicle is the most advanced Fortnite automobile yet. Just like in Rocket League, the Octane in Fortnite has rocket boosters and supersonic speed, plus the ability to jump, double jump, dodge, fly, and traverse walls!

See for yourself what this brand-new Vehicle is all about as we review how to use it in our rundown below.

Where can you find the Octane Vehicle?

For the time being, the Octane Vehicle is only available in Creative Mode. To get an Octane, you must use an Octane Spawner Device.

Alternatively, you can join in on a preexisting Island that uses Octane Spawners, like Rocket League's Octane Park Tutorial (Island Code: 7335-2078-5523).

How to use the Octane Vehicle

The Octane is unlike any vehicle ever seen in Fortnite. Surprisingly, the Octane functions quite similarly to how it does in Rocket League. The Octane is lightweight and can rocket boost, jump, and maneuver in the air, plus drive on walls with its Sticky Wheels.

  • Air Pitch: While in mid-air, pitch forward or back while mid-air to control air pitch.
