Fortnite challenge guide: Collect cookbooks from Pleasant Park and Craggy Cliffs

Add as a preferred source on Google

Season 5, week 14 of Fortnite is underway, meaning there are a new set of challenges for you to check out. For the most part, week 14 features a relatively straightforward list of challenges — many of which you can complete with little to no assistance. However, there are a couple that might cause some issues if you don’t know where to go. The first one you’ll likely have trouble with requires you to collect four cookbooks from Pleasant Park and Craggy Cliffs.

As is typical, the game doesn’t specify all the cookbook locations, which is where we come in. Oddly enough, the challenge is worded incorrectly. You don’t have to find cookbooks at both locations. Instead, as long as you find four across one or both areas, you’ll get credit for completing the challenge. In this guide, we’ll show you where to find cookbooks to complete this season 5, week 14 Fortnite challenge.

Where to find cookbooks from Pleasant Park and Craggy Cliffs

In total, there are 10 cookbooks scattered across both locations. To complete this challenge, you only need to find four of them — and any combination will do. In fact, you don’t need to visit both locations at all. Simply land at either Pleasant Park or Craggy Cliffs and grab four cookbooks to complete the challenge.

The other thing to know is that there is no prerequisite for starting this challenge. During season 5, many challenges have prerequisites that must be finished first before moving on, but this is the first stage, so you can jump into it right away. Aside from that, you should know that this challenge does not need to be completed in one match (though it can be done in one match relatively easily). Your progress carries over, so don’t worry if you die before getting all four cookbooks.

Below, we’ll list the locations of all 10 cookbooks, so feel free to grab them in any order you like.

Pleasant Park

Most of the cookbooks at Pleasant Park are found in the kitchens of houses. We recommend landing on the west side of this area. Then, make your way north, hitting all the houses along the side. The map below (courtesy of Fortnite.gg) has more details.

Once you’ve collected your fourth cookbook, you’ll earn credit for completing the challenge, along with 40,000 XP for your troubles. Not too bad for a few minutes of work!

If you're a Ghost Recon fan, you've probably gotten used to one thing over the past few years: waiting for rumors to turn into announcements, waiting for leaks to be acknowledged, waiting for Ubisoft to say... well, anything at all about the future of one of its biggest tactical shooter franchises. Thankfully, that silence finally seems to be ending.

Ubisoft has confirmed that it will share Ghost Recon news on August 6, when the series celebrates its 25th anniversary. The announcement arrived shortly after fresh leaks began circulating online, prompting the company to post a brief message telling fans that more information is just around the corner.

The AI game-dev boom has a dark side: fewer jobs for the people starting out
Solo creators are thriving with tools like Claude Code and Copilot, but entry-level game roles are disappearing.

AI is making it easier than ever for a single person to build a game. That sounds like a win for creativity, and in many ways, it absolutely is. But there is a catch. As generative AI tools help solo developers and small studios do more with fewer people, the same shift is making life tougher for writers, artists, concept creators, and junior programmers trying to break into the gaming industry.
