Most of the characters from Chapter 5 Season 2 were removed from Fortnite when Season 3 launched. However, to fans' surprise, Cerberus, one of the Olympian Bosses, remained in the game. Many gamers were hopeful that taking down Cerberus would grant them the Aspect of Agility Medallion, but that was not the case.
Fortnite: How to Get the Boom Bolt
The Boom Bolt is an explosive crossbow in Fortnite Wrecked - here is how to find it.
Thankfully, the menacing dog still grants pretty great rewards this season. This guide will tell players everything they need to know to find Cerberus and his Mythic Gatekeeper Shotgun in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3.
Cerberus Location in Chapter 5 Season 3
Cerberus is the only Olympian Boss on the Battle Royale island after the end of the Myths & Mortals season. To find Cerberus in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3, players will have to visit the Grim Gate named location, on the northwestern corner of the map. Cerberus tends to hang out near the columns where his altar was located.
Even though Cerberus still inhabits the same location, this character has been slightly tweaked. He isn't a hostile creature anymore, which means players can safely approach him and talk to him - he won't open fire on sight.
How to Get the Mythic Gatekeeper Shotgun
Just like Oscar's Frenzy Auto Shotgun, to obtain Cerberus's Gatekeeper Shotgun in Fortnite, players will have to duel him and win. To do this, simply approach Cerberus and select the "Challenge Cerberus" dialogue option.
Even though he puts up more of a challenge compared to Oscar, it is much easier to defeat Cerberus in Chapter 5 Season 3, as he can no longer spawn minion wolves. This means that gamers only have to take him down. However, Cerberus still has access to his Underworld Dash ability and his spin attack, so gamers must be careful up close.
The best way to beat Cerberus in Fortnite is to find a medium-ranged weapon, so fans can keep their distance while dealing as much damage as possible. Once defeated, Cerberus will drop his Mythic Gatekeeper Shotgun, which comes with the Speed Mag, Speedgrip, and Muzzle Brake mods.
This is the only way to get a Mythic Gatekeeper Shotgun in Chapter 5 Season 3, so gamers who enjoy this weapon should definitely consider attempting to take it from Grim Gate's guardian.
