For those who don't know, IO Guards are one of the many forms of NPCs in Fortnite now. But, instead of giving you quests like the others do, they'll attack you in site, making for a pesky fight, that other players are bound to hear.

\n

This is why, it's good to get knowledge of where they spawn around the map, and as of now there's only five locations where they'll spawn.

\n

We're going to quickly runover where they can spawn, and if you're around these areas, keep your eyes peeled. As you may run into some players already fighting these IO Guards.
