The rivalry between The Foundation and the Ice King is one of Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2's most exciting story threads, and it comes packed with quests that push you across the island. One quest that trips up a lot of players early on asks you to visit Zero Point Shards on behalf of The Foundation. No markers, no hints, just a vague objective. Here's exactly where to go and what to do.
What Are the Zero Point Shards in Fortnite?
The Zero Point Shards are massive fragments of the Zero Point itself, scattered across the island after the Dark Harvester fired a laser blast at the Zero Point, causing it to splinter into three Pure Shards. Each shard is a towering silver and pink chunk of rock hovering in the sky, and the energy radiating from each one creates a permanent zero gravity zone in the surrounding area.
Where Are All Three Zero Point Shard Locations?
There are exactly three Zero Point Shards spread across the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 island. You need to physically travel to all three to complete The Foundation's quest. Here's where each one sits:
All three are marked by that distinctive pink circle on the minimap, so pull up your map before dropping and you'll spot them quickly.

How to Complete the Visit Zero Point Shards Quest
This quest is refreshingly simple once you know the locations. Unlike most Fortnite objectives that require you to interact with specific items or eliminate opponents in a particular way, the Zero Point Shard quest only requires you to physically enter each location. No button presses, no pickaxe swings, nothing extra.
Here's the step-by-step breakdown:
- Drop at or rotate toward Squibbly Shores and walk into the pink zero-gravity area beneath the floating shard.
- Head to Frigid Fortress either in the same match or a separate one, and repeat the process.
- Visit New Sanctuary last and step into its shard's influence zone to complete the quest.
معلومة
لا يتعين عليك زيارة الشظايا الثلاث في مباراة واحدة. يتم حفظ التقدم بين المباريات، لذا لا تتردد في إنجاز واحدة أو اثنتين في كل جلسة دون الاندفاع إلى منطقة خطرة.
The zero gravity effect surrounding each shard is a good sign you're in the right spot. If you start floating slightly or notice your movement feels lighter, the quest should tick off that location automatically.
What Comes After the Zero Point Shard Quest?
Once you've checked off all three shard visits, The Foundation's quest chain continues with additional objectives that keep you engaged with the season's story. You'll want to move on to tasks like powering on a holotable to help The Foundation and exploring other new mechanics tied to the Ice King conflict.
