Stage 1: Dance on top of a sundial[edit]
Three locations on the map must be danced upon and it’s your job to do just that on each one. Once you reach the required location, boogie down with your favorite emote to complete that stage. Do this for all three locations in different matches to complete the challenge. You can only do on stage per match and you must die naturally for it to count. No quitting after dancing!
Use a Sneaky Snowman in different matches[edit]
Sneaky Snowman are one of the newer additions to Fortnite and allow you to protect yourself with what is essentially a 100 health shield. Take note you cannot build or use another weapon while in snowman mode. You can also throw the snowman onto the ground to use as an object or even throw it onto another enemy or player to confuse them! Use three Sneak Snowman in different matches to complete this challenge.
Shotgun Eliminations[edit]
Defeat three enemies using any type of shotgun. Shotguns are some of the most commonly used weapons and you can normally find them as soon as you land. Headshots can likely take down an opponent in one shot provided you’re close enough. Shotguns include:
- Pump Shotgun
- Tactical Shotgun
The Heavy Shotgun was sadly vaulted with the most recent patch.
Complete timed trials in an X-4 Stormwing Plane[edit]
Looks like the plane is getting its own set of timed trails! These challenges involve players activating a timer where rings will appear in the sky. Fly through every ring before the clock runs out to complete the challenge.
We’ll update this challenge once we know the locations of every timed trail!
Pop Golden Balloons[edit]
Golden Balloons will soon appear across the Fortnite map. Pop them by shooting at them or, better yet, hitting them with your pickaxe to avoid any noise.
We’ll update this challenge once we know the locations of every golden balloon!
Stage 1: Land at Retail Row[edit]
Another multi-stage challenge that has you simply landing in a specific location. Take note that you must complete the match by either getting first place or dying normally. You cannot get the challenge and quit. The full list of locations:
- Stage 1: Land at Retail Row
- Stage 2: Land at Frosty Flights
- Stage 3: Land at Haunted Hills
- Stage 4: Land at Shifty Shafts
- Stage 5: Land at Dusty Divot
Eliminate opponents at Junk Junction or Retail Row[edit]
Take down three different enemies in either Junk Junction or Retail Row. Landing in the northern part of the map at Junk Junction usually results in fewer enemies allowing you to take a more cautious approach when attacking enemies. Feeling risky? Head to Retail Row and grab the first weapon you spot. You’ll likely be surrounded by other players so don’t be afraid to be the first one to strike!
