Add as a preferred source on Google

The newest set of Fortnite challenges is live, this time for season 7, week 6. The new challenges are actually a little more complicated than in previous weeks, but once you know where to go, they can be completed fairly quickly. Thankfully, there aren’t any collectibles to find or tough enemies to defeat this week, so it’s just a matter of understanding the terminology used in the challenge descriptions.

In this guide, we’ll show you all the new challenges, along with guides on getting through some of the trickier ones. Here are the Fortnite season 7, week 6 challenges and how to complete them.

Season 7, week 6 challenges

As always, we highly suggest taking a look at the list of challenges before you hop into a match — that way, you’re at least somewhat familiar with what you need to do. With some of them, you’ll be able to breeze through unassisted, but others — like destroying alien trees — might cause a bit more trouble.

The new challenges are listed below:

  • Collect gold bars (500)
  • Spend gold bars (500)
  • Destroy equipment on top of abductors (3)
  • Open chests or ammo boxes in low-gravity areas (3)
  • Deploy alien nanites anywhere other than Holly Hatchery (3)
  • Destroy alien trees (5)

Fortunately, a lot of these challenges can be completed quickly, especially if you know exactly where to go. Below are guides on getting through this week’s tougher challenges.
