Fortnite season 5 week 10 challenges and how to complete them

Joseph Yaden
By

Fortnite season 5 week 10 is underway, along with a new set of challenges to complete — hopefully getting you closer to the coveted battle pass level 100. For the most part, this week’s list of challenges is straightforward, especially compared to week 9. Many of the challenges send you to locations that are marked on the map, so you won’t need to spend much time searching for where to go.

Though, there is one challenge that still might cause a few issues. Fortunately, we’ve got the scoop on how to complete all of the trickier quests you might be struggling with. Here, we’ll go through all of week 10’s new challenges and provide tips for completing them — as well as an in-depth guide for one of the harder challenges. These are Fortnite’s season 5 week 10 challenges and how to complete them.

Season 5, week 10 challenge list

It’s recommended to at least take a glance at the challenge list so you can make a mental note of them as you play. Since most of them are simple, you should have no problem getting through them in a few matches.

  • Use food consumables (3)
  • Eliminations with common weapons (1)
  • Go for a swim at Lazy Lake (1)
  • Dance near Pleasant Park (1)
  • Deal melee damage (300)
  • Upgrade weapons (3)
  • Eliminate IO guards (5)

Challenges like consuming food, eliminating enemies with common weapons, and dealing melee damage are all things you’d likely do while playing anyway. In terms of upgrading weapons, certain NPCs will give you this option at main hubs, so look out for them as you progress through the match. We like to use the one by Catty Corner. It’ll cost gold bars to use this feature, but by now, you should be well stocked up.

This week, there’s only one tricky challenge, and it requires you to defeat five IO guards.

There are a couple of reasons this challenge is tough. For one, you have to complete the prerequisites beforehand, which require you to eliminate an enemy with a common weapon, deal 300 melee damage, and upgrade three weapons. Once you complete the first three stages, you’ll be able to start stage 4, which requires you to defeat five IO guards. Follow our guide on how to eliminate IO guards for more in-depth steps on how to complete it.

And that’s everything you’ll need to know about Fortnite’s season 5 week 10 challenges. Again, this list is a bit lighter than the previous week’s challenges, due to many of them featuring marked locations on the map. For the challenge that requires you to swim at Lazy Lake, any of the surrounding bodies of water will do — including the two pools on the south side.

Fortnite is coming back to iOS, but Epic Games still isn’t happy about it

Fortnite is set to come back to iOS in Europe sometime in 2024. This will mark the first time a natively running version of Fortnite will be available on iOS since Apple removed the game from the App Store in 2020.

Apple did so at the time because Epic tried to use its own third-party payment system, kicking off a series of legal battles in an attempt to get Apple to open up its platform more. Although those legal battles have yielded mixed results for Epic, a newly passed Digital Markets Act in the European Union is forcing Apple to do things like "allow third parties to inter-operate with the gatekeeper’s own services in certain specific situations" and "allow their business users to promote their offer and conclude contracts with their customers outside the gatekeeper’s platform."

We all know that Palworld is so much more than just "Pokemon with guns." Even ignoring all the crafting, breeding, and survival aspects, there are way more than just regular guns to unlock and make. You have melee options, spears, bows, handguns, explosives, and more at your disposal. If you want to keep up with the difficulty curve and hunt down the higher-level Pals, and especially the Legendaries, then you need the strongest weapons in your arsenal. Here are all the weapons currently in Palworld and how you can unlock and craft them.
How to unlock and craft every weapon
Weapons in Palworld unlock as you level up, but you don't just get them automatically. You will still need to gather all the resources and craft them yourself. Here are all the weapons you unlock in order as you level up, plus the recipe to make them.

Rock Band 4 gets its final piece of DLC next week after over 8 years of support

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.
