Early Look at Fortnite’s High Stakes Challenges

High Stakes Challenges are not part of the Season 5 Battle Pass but instead are paired with The Getaway LTM. Our guide has tips on completing all three challenges, including the pick up a jewel in 5 different matches of the getaway challenge.

These challenges will be available after the v5.4 update goes live at 1AM PT on September 6!

Clear all three challenges to get the crowbar harvesting tool!. Anyone can complete these challenges, no Battle Pass required! See

a list of all the Weekly Challenges here

and jump to each challenge of the High Stakes Challenges here:

EditDeal 500 Damage to Jewel Carrying Opponents

Reward: Suits Spray

Similar to the normal deal 500 damage challenges but the only opponents that count are those carrying a jewel. Given there are only four jewels total in the entire match, dealing damage to any enemy you see you won’t do. We’re not yet sure if hitting anyone in a team carrying a jewel will count, otherwise you’re stuck trying to deal damage to four out of 100 players.

As we continue to play the mode, we’ll add tips on finding players with jewels and how to best deal the most damage.

EditPlay 10 Matches of The Getaway

Reward: 5,000XP

Enter and play in at least 10 different matches of The Getaway, the LTM part of the High Stakes event. You’re not required to win or to even interact with any of the jewels, you just need to enter each game!

EditPick Up a Jewel In 5 Different Matches of The Getaway

Reward: Money Contrail

Only four jewels appear in each match of The Getaway and you’ll need to collect a total of five in different matches to complete this challenge. Jewels can be found inside safes that drop down in supply drops at the start of the match. Keep in mind that you only need to pick up the jewel once in order to add it to your challenge. It’s not yet clear if being in the same squad as someone who picks up the jewel counts to your total.

As we continue to play the mode, we’ll add tips on how to best spot the supply drops and how to keep them all to yourself.
