Fortnite season 4 week 14 challenge guide: Releasing Slurp into the atmosphere

Fortnite is back again with another set of challenges for you to complete, this time for XP Xtravaganza’s week 4. One challenge that might be causing some confusion requires you to release Slurp into the atmosphere. The wording is cryptic and doesn’t exactly tell you what you need to do in order to complete it. Not to worry, though, as we’ve got all the details on how to finish this challenge, including tips and tricks to make it as easy as possible for you.

Here’s how to release Slurp into the atmosphere in Fortnite.

In order to complete this challenge, you need to finish the following three tasks:

  • Destroy a Slurp tower
  • Destroy three Slurp barrels
  • Destroy a Slurp truck

You can complete them in any order, but they must all be done within the same match. We recommend heading to the northern area of Slurpy Swamp, where you’ll find a few Slurp towers. Destroy one of them with your pickaxe and you’ll gain progress toward completing the challenge. You can destroy it with any weapon, but using the pickaxe is pretty easy. Also, keep in mind, this can be completed in any game mode, though we advise going for it in a team-based mode so you can help your squad make progress toward finishing the challenge (or vice versa).

Next, you need to head inside to destroy three Slurp barrels. You can find them to the south of the Slurp towers, just inside. There are several to choose from, so find a trio of barrels and use your pickaxe to destroy them. Again, you’ll see a completion bar fill after you’ve destroyed three. At this point, you’ll only need to do one more thing.

The final step is to destroy a Slurp truck. You can find one to the southeast of Slurpy Swamp on the road next to the main building. It’s parked on the street, so run up to it and do what you’ve done throughout the other steps. After you’ve destroyed it, you’ll gain credit for the final step, which will complete the challenge. You’ll earn 20,000 XP for doing so and you’ll now have full health and shields.

The video above shows the whole process from start to finish. It’s not a complicated challenge to finish, but it will take a little time, depending on your knowledge of the area. Though, if you reference the video, you can see an easy path to get to all three locations that include the objects you need for the challenge.

Where to find Vendetta Flopper in Lego Fortnite

The fishing update to Lego Fortnite added, you guessed it, the ability to fish once you've made yourself a rod. Of course, since fish didn't exist in the game before this, an entire school of undersea life needed to be created. Every fish you can catch has a different benefit, from restoring a bunch of health when you eat it to giving you some kind of buff. The rarest and most useful fish is certainly the Vendetta Flopper, making it the most coveted catch in the game. While fishing is still heavily dependent on luck, you won't even have a chance at this fish unless you know where to cast your line.
Where to find the Vendetta Flopper

Before you even attempt to attempt this legendary catch, make sure you're ready with an Epic fishing rod and Epic Bait Bucket to give yourself the best chance at a rare catch. The nest step is to only cast into the glowing purple zones that indicate the presence of rare fish. Fishing in any other part of the water won't yield the Vendetta Flopper we're after.

Harmonix revealed that the January 25 DLC tracks for Rock Band 4 will be the final new ones added to the game.

This ends a streak of more than eight years of weekly DLC for the rhythm game. Ever since Rock Band 4 was released in October 2015, new DLC songs have been made available for purchase every week, giving the game one of the most impressive live service tails in the industry. Ultimately, Harmonix says it will have released nearly 3,000 songs as DLC for Rock Band 4 after the final content drop next week, and that live service support for seasons and online play will "continue as normal" after next week.

All Charms and Trinkets in Lego Fortnite

Most things in Lego Fortnite are grounded in reality -- well, as much as they can be in a game where you are a little Lego man running around collecting resources and building entire villages by yourself. You slowly accumulate better gear as you craft new items and upgrade your existing facilities so you can venture further out and face tougher challenges.

There's some equipment that works a bit differently, namely your Trinkets and Charms. These little doodads can be crafted as you collect specific resources, they come in a range of rarities, and all of them give your character a specific buff that can be placed on your armor to add to your character. There's a lot of them out there to find and craft, so we've cataloged all the Charms and Trinkets in Lego Fortnite and what they do.
