Let’s break down each challenge and provide tips to help you complete them with ease.

1. Use a Vending Machine (0/1)

Tip: This challenge is straightforward. Vending Machines are scattered across the island and allow you to exchange materials for items or weapons. Find a Vending Machine and simply make a purchase to complete the challenge.

2. Deal Damage with Explosive Weapons (0/500)

Tip: You’ll need to deal 500 damage using explosive weapons such as:

Rocket Launcher
Grenade Launcher
Guided Missile
Remote Explosive
Grenades

Whenever you come across these weapons, prioritize using them to complete this challenge. Look for opportunities to damage enemies in high-traffic areas like Tilted Towers or Retail Row.

3. Visit Different Taco Shops in a Single Match (0/3)

Map location of Taco Shops. — On this map I have highlighted all the locations which have a Taco Shop in them.

Tip: This challenge requires you to visit three Taco Shops in one match. Here’s where to find them:

Tomato Town: Beside the Pizza Restaurant (North side).
Retail Row: In the center of Retail Row.
South of Shifty Shafts: Small pit-stop area with red and white cars.
Tilted Towers: Near an old yellow bus.
West of Tilted Towers: Look for a yellow bus and a pit-stop.

Plan your route carefully to ensure you can hit these locations without running out of time. Landing near Tilted Towers is usually popular, so consider visiting the other locations first.

4. Search Chests in Snobby Shores (0/7)

Map with Snobby Shores circled. — You will need to search a total of seven chests in Snobby Shores.

Tip: For this challenge, head to Snobby Shores and search a total of 7 chests. Focus on searching the common chest spawn points (houses, roofs, or basements). It may take a couple of matches to find all 7 chests, so be persistent and play strategically.

5. Dance on Different Dance Floors (0/3)

Tip: To complete this challenge, dance on three different dance floors. Here are a few locations where you can find them:

West of Pleasant Park (Old house).
Southwest corner of Flush Factory.
West of Retail Row (Barn).

6. Search Between Three Boats (0/1)

Tip: To find the hidden Battle Star, head to Loot Lake and land on the island with the mansion. From here, go to the dock on the southeast side, where you’ll find the Battle Star between three boats.

7. Assault Rifle Elimination (0/5)

Tip: Eliminate five enemies using an Assault Rifle, such as the M16, Scar, Burst, or Scoped Rifle. Prioritize landing in areas with high player traffic, such as Tilted Towers or Retail Row, where you’re likely to find opponents to eliminate.

8. Eliminate Opponents in Dusty Depot (0/3)

Eliminate enemies in Dusty Depot - Week 8 Battle Pass Challenges Guide — One of the Week 8 challenges has players eliminating three enemies in Dusty Depot.

Tip: This challenge requires you to eliminate three opponents in Dusty Depot. Since this area is a hotspot, expect heavy competition. Try to land quickly and grab a weapon before others. This challenge may be easier later in the week when the area isn’t as crowded.

Fortnite Battle Royale is currently available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and iOS devices (with Android coming soon).

That’s a wrap for Fortnite Battle Royale’s Week 8 challenges! As you work through these tasks, keep in mind that some may take longer than others. Remember to play smart, and don’t rush through the challenges too quickly—take time to enjoy the game.
