From the ability to get abducted and enter the mammoth alien Mothership, to finding new weapons and much more. With the latest update, alien Parasites have also entered the island, and you actually might want to get one attached to your head due to their effects in Fortnite.<\/p>\n<h2>How to find alien Parasites in Fortnite<\/h2>\n<p>To find alien Parasites in Fortnite is quite easy. All you need to do is head to some wildlife, which have mostly been infected by these little creatures.<\/p>\n<p>Epic Games explains: &#8220;These creatures can often be seen parasitizing chickens, boars, and wolves. If you take damage from parasitized wildlife, their slime will gradually deplete some of your Health. Defeating an animal with a Parasite on it will make that Parasite jump on you, which could very well be a sound strategy. We expect their population to grow as they adapt to the Island.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Check out some of the first Parasite gameplay by YouTuber <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCMruOcXkSdBQBdiZSAjsMlw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Benthehitman32<\/a> below.<\/p>\n<div style=\"left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; max-width: 650px;\" data-ephox-embed-iri=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_ksDHXpuuaE\"><iframe style=\"border: 0; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_ksDHXpuuaE?rel=0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" srcdoc=\"&lt;style&gt;*{padding:0;margin:0;overflow:hidden}html,body{height:100%}img,span{position:absolute;width:100%;top:0;bottom:0;margin:auto}span{height:1.5em;text-align:center;font:48px\/1.5 sans-serif;color:white;text-shadow:0 0 0.5em black}&lt;\/style&gt;&lt;a href=https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_ksDHXpuuaE?autoplay=1&gt;&lt;img src=https:\/\/img.youtube.com\/vi\/_ksDHXpuuaE\/hqdefault.jpg alt='YouTube video thumbnail'&gt;&lt;span&gt;&#9654;&lt;\/span&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>Basically, all you need to do is follow the step below to find an alien Parasite, and get it to attach to your character&#8217;s head.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Jump into Fortnite&#8217;s Battle Royale.<\/li>\n<li>Find either wolves, chickens or boars.<\/li>\n<li>Look for an infected animal and kill it.<\/li>\n<li>Allow the parasite to jump onto your head.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Following these steps will get a little buddy attached to your head.
