The War Bus is a Vehicle in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was first introduced in Chapter 5: Season 3.
One or two War Buses will spawn each game. If either (or both) The Machinist or Megalo Don are driving around the island, a War Bus with a Wasteland Elite and Wasteland Grunts will follow them. If neither of them are driving around the island, a Whiplash will lead the bus driven by a Wasteland Elite and Wasteland Grunt.
Functionality[]
The War Bus can hold 7 players: 1 Driver, 2 Front Seats, 2 Rear Seats and 2 Gunners. The War Bus has a Spiked Bumper and Off-Road Tires, along with two Anti-Vehicle Turrets. The Driver has full control of the vehicle and is able to drive forwards, reverse, brake and also boost. This boost enables the vehicle to move forwards at a great speed or damage players with ease. The War Bus also comes equipped with a EMP horn which disables all nearby vehicles and damages nearby enemy's shields.
The passengers can shoot, heal, emote and crouch whilst on a seat of the Armored Battle Bus. There are two anti-vehicle turrets on the top of the Bus. These Turrets can be used to damage structures, enemies and vehicles.
Strategy Guide[]
- Standing on a War Bus without getting into the seats will let you pickaxe the Guards or players in the turrets easily.
- Doing this will also not aggravate the Guards and Convoy Leader, so it is especially helpful if you wish to get prep time before fighting them or ride with the convoy.

War Buses Hijack a War Bus from a patroller and use the roof-top cannons to start a road trip of destruction! Have road rage? The horn doubles as an EMP pulse that damages enemy Shields and temporarily disables nearby vehicles. |

Trivia[]
- This is the third time the player can drive a Battle Bus. The first time was in The Devourer of Worlds Live Event (although it was in a much different context), and the second was the Armored Battle Bus.
