Fortnite Season 8 is yet another season that seemingly doesn’t include Sniper Rifles. However, here is how you can find Sniper Rifles in Fortnite Season 8 to dominate your opponents from afar.
Sniper Rifles come in all shapes and sizes in Fortnite. In the beginning, there were only the Bolt Action Snipers. Epic Games later added the Semi-Auto Sniper Rifles, Heavy Snipers, Full Auto Snipers, and much more.
On top of regular Snipers, Fortnite added various Mythic and Exotic Snipers. These dealt extra damage or had special abilities. Regardless, Snipers are an important part of Fortnite’s meta.
But at the start of Season 8, it seems as if the only Snipers available are Automatic Snipers which are just glorified Assault Rifles. However, there are a few less traditional ways to find Sniper Rifles in Fortnite Season 8.

Finding Sniper Rifles in Fortnite Season 8
Besides the Automatic Sniper, you aren’t going to find a Sniper Rifle lying on the floor. You also won’t find them in any of the chests scattered around the map. In order to get Snipers in Fortnite Season 8, you will have to buy them from characters.
The only legitimate Sniper Rifles that players can find in Fortnite Season 8 are Rail Guns and Dragon’s Breath Sniper. While Rail Guns aren’t technically “snipers”, they’re more of a sniper than the Automatic Sniper Rifle.
Below is a map that shows the location of the four characters that sell Sniper Rifles. Suba Jonesy at Coral Castle, Charlotte at Pleasant Park, and J.B. Chimpanksi at Weather Station all sell Rail Guns. Pitstop at Boney Burbs sells the Dragon’s Breath Sniper.
Each weapon costs 400 Gold Bars. Here is where you can find Snipers in Fortnite Season 8:

Sadly, you will have to spend bars to get these Sniper Rifles. However, you at least have the option of getting a real Sniper Rifle in Fortnite Season 8. There have been seasons in the past that have excluded Sniper Rifles altogether.
