AI Darth Vader location in Fortnite
AI Darth Vader only has one spawn location in Fortnite , which is at Vader Samurai Solitude . He essentially replaced the Darth Vader Samurai boss who used to spawn there and can be found in every match wandering around this vast location.
His precise spot is marked by a Darth Vader mask icon on the map. It's a black icon that can sometimes be easy to miss, especially in comparison to Captain Phasma's shiny marker, so scan carefully for it. This icon is always displayed near the bottom left corner of the island since that's where Vader Samurai Solitude is.

If you previously ran into AI Darth Vader elsewhere, it's because he initially had three different spawn locations on the island. The three spots you used to be able to visit to search for him were as follows.
A landing pad east of Foxy Floodgate and west of Seaport City.
A landing pad near the base of the tall, snowy mountain east of Canyon Crossing and west of Masked Meadows.
A landing pad near the very north end of Vader Samurai Solitude.
His ability to appear at any of these three spots was removed. Now, he only appears at Vader Samurai Solitude, where he's heavily guarded by lots of Stormtroopers . The only time you'll run into him elsewhere on the island is when he's been recruited by another player.
How to talk to AI Darth Vader in Fortnite
There are a few key steps you have to take before you can talk with Darth Vader in Fortnite . To chat with the iconic Sith Lord, you need to do the following:
Find Darth Vader. He wanders around the vast Vader Samarai Solitude location quite a lot, so it can be a bit tricky to find him. He's generally near the very north end of this POI.
Defeat Darth Vader in battle. The nightly Sith Lord enjoys a good challenge, so to get him on your side, you first need to prove yourself worthy. Take him down in combat to unlock him as a recruitable NPC .
Head through Darth Vader's portal. Once you bear him, proceed through his special Training Rift Gate to officially unlock him as an ally.
Look for the special Darth Vader button. It can be found near the right middle edge of your screen, right above your inventory.
Press the talk button. It varies by platform, but it's always displayed near the right middle edge of your screen. You can change the button in your settings by navigating to the Conversational AI option under the controls page if you don't like what it's set to.

If you're playing with allies, the entire squad has access to this feature as long as AI Darth Vader remains alive as a hired NPC. This means anyone on your team can freely chat with him as the match progresses.

AI Darth Vader is trained by Google’s Gemini 2.0 Flash model and ElevenLabs' Flash v2.5 model, so he's ready and willing to talk about most topics in Fortnite . He can offer you advice about what to do next, answer questions you may have, and respond to any silly jokes or queries you may present.
When I recruited AI Darth Vader , I talked to him about all kinds of different topics, including Star Wars lore, jokes, favorite movies, combat strategies, and more. He'll respond to just about anything you have to say.
