Fortnite - How to hide inside hideouts in different matches
Hideouts are a new mechanic that arrived in Fortnite Chapter 2. It allows you to hide in certain objects in an attempt to knock yourself out, or perhaps escape a fight if you're low on health. There appear to be two main types of hideouts in Fortnite, the humble dumpster and hay bales, depending on which part of the map you are in. Obviously, dumpsters will appear more in urban areas, while hay bales are green areas of the map.
To hide, all you have to do is run to the hideout and interact with her. Your character will then dive in and be completely hidden from view. Hideouts can be destroyed, however, and if any of them are with you inside, they will expose you. It also means that you can try to hunt down enemies fleeing from you. Therefore, if you suddenly lose track of someone, make sure they are not in a nearby hiding place.
There will also be a little animation every now and then, when I was hiding in a dumpster the trash would move occasionally. I'm not sure yet if other players can see this, but be careful and vigilant when hiding as eagle-eyed players might be able to figure it out.
As for the Hideout locations, they can be found all over the map and are quite numerous. Just look for dumpsters like the ones pictured in the image above or the large round hay bales that can be found in places like Frenzy Farm.
