Fortnite hidden loading screen: Week 9 star REVEALED for Snowfall challenge

Fortnite fans can unlock a special hidden loading screen by completing all Season 7, Week 9 challenges.

And hidden within this loading screen is a Battle Star or banner, which rewards players with new Battle Pass items.

Epic Games releases seven Battle Royale challenges each week. Three of the weekly challenges are available for free and the other four challenges are exclusive to Battle Pass users.

The challenges are also 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.

You can even earn an additional Battle Star or banner by completing all seven challenges and unlocking a special loading screen (above).

The clue for this week’s hidden star can be found in the top left part of the loading screen. We’ve circled it below to make it easier to spot.

If you squint you’ll see that the image shown is a Battle Star on top of a wooden sleigh.

This can be found in the centre of square D8 on the Fortnite Battle Royale map, which is inbetween Polar Peaks and Happy Hamlet.

Check out the map image above for the exact location of the hidden Battle Star.

It’s worth remembering that you’ll need to complete all of the challenges to unlock the loading screen and star.
