Add as a preferred source on Google

It’s a new week, which means you’ll have a new set of Fortnite challenges to complete. This time, you’ll need to use more new mechanics introduced in chapter 3, such as sliding and using tents. While some of them will likely be completed by playing naturally, others aren’t as straightforward. These are the new week 3 challenges and how to complete them in Fortnite.

Season 1, week 3 quest guide

Search coolers or ice machines (5)

Map of Fortnite cooler locations.
Fortnite.gg

There are coolers and ice machines all around the map, and they spawn in fixed locations. If you don’t happen to search all five in one match, you can pick up where you left off in a new match. Use the map above (thanks, Fortnite.gg) for their locations.

Slide continuously for 25 meters

This one is simple — you just need to use the new slide mechanic for 25 meters. Make sure you have a long stretch of land ahead of you before clicking in the right stick to slide. You can set a waypoint to keep track of the distance you’ve covered.

Bounce 5 times on Spider-Man’s Bouncers without touching the ground (5)

Map of Fortnite bouncer locations.
Fortnite.gg

Spider-Man’s Bouncers are large webs that serve as trampolines and can be bounced on continuously. Use the map above for their locations and then bounce from one while adjusting your position each time. The toughest part is being aware of your positioning at the peak of each bounce.

Talk to Guaco, Bunker Jonesy, and Cuddle Team Leader (3)

This challenge requires you to talk to three different NPCs who spawn at fixed locations around the map. Team Cuddle Leader is on the north side of Camp Cuddle, Guaco is at Greasy Grove, and Bunker Jonesy is at the Joneses. The map above features all three locations. Remember, you don’t need to speak with all of them in the same match.

Collect stored items from a tent (2)

Tents spawn randomly around the map and can be acquired to store items or even replenish health. Sometimes the tents appear throughout the world in between main hubs, so keep your eyes peeled for them as you play. Then, simply interact with one to place two items inside, and then collect them right afterward.

Deal damage to opponents at Rocky Reels or Condo Canyon (75)

For this challenge, we advise landing at Rocky Reels or Condo Canyon straight away. Make sure you communicate with your team so they know you’re attempting this challenge and have them cover your back. Remember, your progress carries over from match to match, but you can easily deal 75 damage in one go if you get the right weapon.

Hit weak points while harvesting (100)

This is the easiest challenge of the week, as it simply requires you to hit weak points while destroying objects with your harvesting tool. Just make sure you hit the object at the right angle and the little indicator will appear, allowing you to deal more damage.

Exclusive: Microsoft explains why RTX Spark’s Prism emulation is about more than higher FPS
Because an erratic 80 FPS will always feel worse than a silky-smooth 60.
ARC Raiders with Anti-Cheat Support running on NVIDIA RTX Spark Laptop

NVIDIA’s RTX Spark may pack a powerful Blackwell GPU, but its ability to run the massive library of existing PC games on Arm depends on a quieter piece of technology: Microsoft’s Prism emulator. Prism allows x64 Windows games and applications to run on RTX Spark’s Arm-based CPU without requiring developers to immediately rewrite them for ARM64.

During an exclusive conversation at NVIDIA’s private IFA 2026 demo, Microsoft’s Peter Dawoud explained that the latest Prism work isn't just about pushing emulated workloads to higher FPS. Microsoft is also focused on performance consistency, particularly in GPU-heavy games where the CPU still has to coordinate frames, physics, and rendering. Because a higher average FPS doesn't always mean a smoother experience, that could prove to be one of Prism’s most important improvements yet.

I played Star Wars: Galactic Racer at Gamescom, and this is way more chaotic than I expected
Four very different vehicles, dangerous shortcuts and enough mid-race chaos to make even a podracer veteran sweat.

The first few minutes with Star Wars: Galactic Racer at Gamescom had me thinking I was playing a very pretty, very modern take on Wipeout. Then the race properly kicked off, and the Burnout DNA came roaring through.

That makes perfect sense, considering Fuse Games was founded by former Criterion developers. But knowing that on paper and actually feeling it while racing are two very different things. This is an arcade racer that really doesn't want you to sit back and admire the scenery. You're boosting, dodging, ramming rivals, dealing with power-ups and trying to pick the right racing line, all while the track throws hazards and shortcuts at you. It's loud, chaotic and, occasionally, wonderfully messy.

NVIDIA G-SYNC Pulsar is proof that gaming monitors don’t just need more Hz

There is something slightly ridiculous about the gaming-monitor arms race. We now have displays pushing 500Hz, 560Hz, and even 720Hz, with esports gamers understandably chasing every last millisecond. The problem? The faster you go, the more you're often asked to compromise on resolution.

NVIDIA G-SYNC Pulsar takes a very different approach. I got to see it in action at Gamescom, and after watching NVIDIA switch the technology on and off in front of me, I came away thinking that perhaps the industry has been asking the wrong question.
