Fortnite Battle Royale Season 5 is here, complete with a list of brand new weekly challenges.
As part of the big Season 5 update, Epic Games has made three of the weekly challenges available for free and the other four challenges exclusive to Battle Pass users.
The challenges are separated into hard and regular tiers of difficulty.
The hard difficulty Fortnite challenges net players ten Battle Stars, while the regular tasks reward fans with five Battle Stars.
Earning Battle Stars levels up your Battle Pass, which is how you unlock all of the rewards on offer.
Season 5 also features bonus challenges that will net players specific items. The Road Trip challenges are similar to Blockbuster challenges from Season 4.
The Road Trip tier rewards players with special loading screens for fully completing all weekly challenges. These loading screens feature hidden Battle Star clues.
Drift Challenges, meanwhile, reward players with new costume pieces for earning XP. Earning enough XP to complete four out of five tiers unlocks a special Harvesting Tool.
With the Durr Burger head in the background, this week’s hidden loading screen features a number of characters taking a road trip – hence the name of the challenge.
One character can be seen checking a map, which is where the hidden Battle Star can be seen.
It’s actually in the northern end of the umbrella shaped ditch, which is just west of Lazy Links.
Check out the gallery at the top of the page for the lowdown on Season 5’s first Road Trip hidden star.
