Add as a preferred source on Google

Fortnite season 6, week 8 is underway, and as usual, it comes with a brand new set of challenges for you to complete. So far, this season hasn’t had any overly difficult challenges, and with this week, that trend continues. The most difficult ones require you to visit specific locations around the map — some of which are unmarked. Aside from that, there aren’t many that will trip you up this week, which bodes well for your battle pass level.

In this guide, we’ll detail all of the new season 6, week 8 challenges, and we’ll walk you through completing the trickier ones.

  • Use launcher from Guardian Towers (3)
  • Open chests at The Spire or Guardian Towers (2)
  • Damage opponent within 10 seconds of landing (1)
  • Dance in Durr Burger Kitchen (1)

Use the image above for a map of where to find fireflies (indicated by the firefly icon), as well as Pizza Pit (as shown by the red circle). We advise going to the location to the west of Pizza Pit to grab the fireflies — then head to Pizza Pit to throw one of them into the building.

And with that, you should be well equipped for completing the newest Fortnite challenges for season 6, week 8!

The debate around GTA 6's "physical" edition just got another twist. Rockstar has confirmed on its official website that PS5 download codes included with physical copies of Grand Theft Auto VI sold in Japan will expire 170 days after the game's November 19, 2026 launch date. That means players who don't redeem the code before roughly May 8, 2027 could be left with nothing more than an empty game box, even though they purchased a physical copy. The company says the policy is required due to regional regulations in Japan.

Why only Japan?

Fresh off launching a metallic Hall-effect keyboard and a 59g gaming mouse for flashy esports setups, Lenovo has turned its attention to gamers working with much tighter budgets. The Legion 24-1r looks made for broke college students who spent way too much on their first gaming rig and now have instant noodles doing most of the heavy lifting at dinner. It costs just 669 yuan, equivalent to around $99, yet offers a 23.8-inch IPS panel running at up to 280Hz.

Lenovo is also offering the 27-inch Legion 27-1r with the same core specifications for 789 yuan, or roughly $116. For the ramen-budget crowd chasing competitive frame rates, both look like seriously tempting deals. (via NotebookCheck)
