Add as a preferred source on Google

It’s that time of the week again, which can only mean one thing: Time to cover the latest list of Fortnite challenges. It’s week 3 of season 6, and the latest set of challenges requires you to deal damage with certain weapons, fish in specific locations, and defeat NPCs around the map. You probably won’t have too much difficulty finishing this week’s challenges, but if you’re stuck, you’ve come to the right place.

As always, we’ve compiled a list of the latest challenges along with walk-throughs on how to complete some of the trickier ones. Here are Fortnite‘s season 6, week 3 challenges and how to complete the more difficult ones.

As always, we recommend at least glancing at the list of challenges so you have a good idea of what to expect. While this week’s challenges are still fairly straightforward, some will require more effort to complete than others.

The full list is as follows:

  • Fly 20 meters with a chicken (20)
  • Hunt a chicken (1)
  • Catch fish at Camp Cod, Lake Canoe, or Stealthy Stronghold (5)
  • Deal damage with shotguns (1,000)
  • Get headshots with rifles (10)
  • Deal damage within 20 meters using a pistol (500)
  • Eliminate Raptor, Zenith, or Blackheart (1)

You’ll likely earn progress toward getting headshots with rifles or dealing damage with shotguns by playing naturally — but other challenges like eliminating Raptor, Zenith, or Blackheart will require more effort. For the tougher objectives, we’ve got detailed guides on how to complete them below.

And with that, you should be prepared to tackle all of this week’s challenges. For the most part, they shouldn’t give you too much trouble aside from taking down one of the NPCs, but if you come prepared, you’ll be able to eliminate them with few issues.

Xbox is nearing its quarter-century of oversized controllers, achievement hunting, and Halo nights. To celebrate its 25th birthday, Microsoft is letting players open a few birthday presents early. The company has released a free collection of gamerpics, profile backgrounds, themes, and a dynamic Xbox console background created by community artists Klobrille and Ben Kenobi.

The artwork is available now, ahead of the original Xbox’s 25th anniversary on November 15. Microsoft is also giving players a commemorative 25th anniversary profile badge.

The fate of physical game discs seems to be set in stone, with an all-digital library becoming increasingly inevitable. Microsoft, though, may at least give Xbox owners a way to bring their shelves full of physical games along for the journey.

A leaked Microsoft roadmap sent to game publishers details the planned rollout of Xbox’s Disc-to-Digital program alongside a much larger backwards-compatibility push. The document reportedly targets August for general availability, October for the full launch of original Xbox games on PC, and a gradual Xbox 360 rollout beginning in 2027.
