Today's Fortbyte location: Fortbyte 38 - Accessible With The Vendetta Outfit At The Northernmost Sky Platform - The final Fortbyte!
It's the last Fortbyte! And go figure, it's a pain to get if you don't already have the Vendetta skin.
Fortbyte 38, the final Fortbyte, is only available if you've unlocked and equip the Vendetta skin. Then drop towards the southern end of Lazy Lagoon. Fortbyte 38 is located a little west, on the northern most Sky Platform on the map. Once you've landed, you should be able to find it pretty quickly.
Of course, if you're working towards the Singularity skin, you'll need 90 out of 100 Fortbytes. So if you've managed to acquire the Vendetta skin, here's a pretty easy way to bump that count up by one.
Fortbyte 21 location - Found inside a metal llama building
Head to the northwest corner of the map, just a bit north of Junk Junction. There you'll find a pretty huge metal llama building. Fortbyte 21 starts out near the top, but other players are inevitably going to knock it lower when they're screwing around. Depending on how many other players are bumrushing to the same Fortbyte, you might have to whack away at some walls or floors to get to it. Considering next season is going to probably feature a mech vs. kaiju fight, I'd be really disappointed if the metal llama didn't get in on the action.
Fortbyte 2 location - Found at a location hidden within Loading Screen #6
Maybe you've unlocked the sixth loading screen, maybe you haven't. Doesn't matter. Just head to the top of the Neo Tilted clock tower to find the fortbyte.

Fortbyte 8 location - Found within Junk Junction
Head into the main building at Junk Junction. It's on the bed. Easy-peasy.
Fortbyte 11 location - Found beneath a circling jungle parrot

Fortbyte 12 location - Accessible using the Nana Nana Spray inside a molten tunnel
There's only one molten tunnel on the map, so let's head there. Follow the Pressure Plant's lava river until it enters a tunnel for a simple visual aid. Head inside and use the spray on the ground near the fortbyte to claim it.
Fortbyte 13 location - Found at a location hidden within Loading Screen 2

Head to the unnamed ghost town at the southeast corner of the map. The building you're looking for is at the southern edge of town, and you'll know it from the armchairs on the roof...and blocking nearly every entryway. Head inside for the Fortbyte.

Fortbyte 20 location - Found at the center of any of the first three Storm Circles
This fortbyte location isn't static, but it can be a hassle to grab in the wrong game mode. Drop into Team Rumble for this one. Stay in the bus until the first circle appears then beeline for the center of the circle. You'll find the fortbyte, well, wherever that is. It'll have a purple lightning bolt hover above it to make it easier to eyeball.
Fortbyte 21 location - Found inside a metal llama building
Head to the northwest corner of the map, just a bit north of Junk Junction. There you'll find a pretty huge metal llama building. Fortbyte 21 starts out near the top, but other players are inevitably going to knock it lower when they're screwing around. Depending on how many other players are bumrushing to the same Fortbyte, you might have to whack away at some walls or floors to get to it. Considering next season is going to probably feature a mech vs. kaiju fight, I'd be really disappointed if the metal llama didn't get in on the action.

This one's a bit tricky because there aren't any simple points of reference. It's in A4, just north of Snobby Shores set up against the hillside near the edge of the map.
Fortbyte 28 location - Accessible by solving the pattern match puzzle outside a desert junkyard
Head to the junkyard southeast of Paradise Palms. You'll find the pattern match game out back. Watch the pattern play out and mimic it by shooting each colored panel. Do this a few times to activate the fortbyte.

Fortbyte 37 location - Found inside a disaster bunker basement in Pleasant Park
Head to the northernmost house in Pleasant Park. Find the hidden basement entrance under the stairs. Run by all the rubble and break down the far back wall for the fortbyte.
Fortbyte 38 - Accessible With The Vendetta Outfit At The Northernmost Sky Platform
It's the last Fortbyte! And go figure, it's a pain to get if you don't already have the Vendetta skin.
Fortbyte 38, the final Fortbyte, is only available if you've unlocked and equip the Vendetta skin. Then drop towards the southern end of Lazy Lagoon. Fortbyte 38 is located a little west, on the northern most Sky Platform on the map. Once you've landed, you should be able to find it pretty quickly.
Of course, if you're working towards the Singularity skin, you'll need 90 out of 100 Fortbytes. So if you've managed to acquire the Vendetta skin, here's a pretty easy way to bump that count up by one.

Fortbyte 50 location - Accessible at night time inside mountain top castle ruins
This Fortbyte's easy to find, but not necessarily easy to claim. Head to the ruined castle east of the Haunted Hills graveyard. Head to the rooms opposite the throne (where the marker is in the picture below) and you'll find the Fortbyte waitin' for a claimin'. Thing is, it has to be night. You can try your luck by waiting, but queuing up for another match might be a better idea. Eventually you'll get one that starts at night.
Fortbyte 51 location - Accessible by using the Cluck Strut to cross the road in front of Peely's Banana Stand

Fortbyte 81 location - Accessible in the daytime near a mountain top cactus wedge
This one is all about timing, with a little luck. To collect the Fortbyte, head to the mountain just southeast of Paradise Palms. It's sitting in the skeleton near the southern edge. The big caveat: it's gotta be daytime. Hopefully it's day when you land, otherwise you'll need to wait around and hope everyone has the same goal in mind.
Fortbyte 82 location - Accessible by solving the pressure plate puzzle NW of The Block
You'll need friends or some kind strangers to get this Fortbyte. As the prompt says, head northwest of The Block into a small grove of trees. Three pressure plates surround the Fortbyte, which isn't activated until all three plates have someone standing on them. Squad up, if you can, and take turns standing on plates while one person grabs it.

Fortbyte 95 location - Found at a Solar Panel Array in the Jungle
This Fortbyte is just east of the hot springs. It's right next to the solar panel array, which. No tricks this time.
Fortbyte 97 location - Found at a location hidden within loading screen #8
