Fortnite Week 6 challenges: how to earn extra XP and Battle Stars
Fortnite Week 6 challenges have kicked off, giving players another chance to earn extra XP and Battle Stars.
Once again there are seven challenges to complete, and completing at least four of these will hand the player a bonus 4,000 XP.
These challenges come in the same week that Fortnite brings back the Sniper Shootout mode and adds a Easter Egg launcher, as well as the guided missile.
Remember you have to own the Season 3 Battle Pass to take advantage of these challenges, which will help push you up the tiers.
Fortnite Week 6 Challenges
- Deal damage with SMGs to opponents – 5 Stars
This is pretty routine. Kill your foes with a SMG. No problemo. - Search chests in Anarchy Acres – 5 Stars
Anarchy Acres is a big enough place to hide 7 chests. Don't forget to search the barns. - Place a Cozy Campfire – 5 Stars
Once you've found a Cozy Campfire in a chest just set it alight and bingo, challenge done. - Summit different mountains peaks – 5 Stars
You need to climb 10 different mountain peaks. You should be pretty familiar with these, but here's a very handy map to all mountain peak locations. - Search between a Metal Bridge, Three Billboards and a Crashed Bus (Hard) – 10 Stars
This week's treasure hunt for a giant Battle Star is easy enough – follow this handy map to find the spot between a metal bridge, three billboards and a crashed bus. - Explosive Weapon Eliminations (Hard) – 10 Stars
Kill 3 opponents with any explosive weapons; grenade, rocket launcher, guided missile or remote explosive. - Eliminate opponents in Retail Row (Hard) – 10 Stars
Retail Row is this week's killzone. Arm up, grit your teeth and wipe out 3 opponents.
