If you haven’t played as Godzilla in Fortnite, you have a few more days to do so. The iconic monster is set to leave the game on Friday, January 31, and may never return. Unfortunately, transforming into this creature will be harder, as Epic Games just nerfed its spawn rate. The good news, however, is that the spawn rate will be buffed later this week.

The spawn rate of Godzilla was temporarily reduced in Fortnite

When Epic Games first released Godzilla, the spawn rate was 20%. Shortly after, the Fortnite creator buffed it to 40%, followed by a 100% spawn rate. The increased rate allowed many players to transform into Godzilla or at least fight him more frequently. However, this is no longer the case, as the monster spawns less frequently.

On Monday night, Epic Games nerfed the spawn rate of the monster. The current rate is 60%, so in theory, Godzilla should spawn in the majority of games. This was the only thing that was changed, as the creature’s health and damage remained the same.

To become Godzilla in Fortnite, you will need to be the first player to enter his portal. The portal randomly spawns in one of the predetermined locations on the map, and you will have to be close to it to have a chance. Furthermore, make sure to grab a couple of weapons before going for the portal, as you will certainly encounter enemies around it.

If you haven’t transformed into Godzilla yet, Epic has some good news. The spawn rate of the monster will be increased later this week. Considering that Godzilla leaves the game on Friday, we expect this change to kick in on Wednesday morning. The Fortnite creator clarified that the spawn rate will go back to 100%, which will allow one player in every match to become Godzilla.
