Fortnite season 8 punchcards: A list of this season’s quests

With the launch of Fortnite chapter 2, season 8, a new challenge system has been implemented. Gone are the traditional challenges that simply appear automatically each week. Instead, season 8 introduces punchcards with numerous objectives given to you by the game’s vibrant cast of characters. While the fundamental way challenges work hasn’t been altered too much, your objectives are certainly presented differently this time around.

It appears new characters will be added each week who will present questlines for you to complete, replacing the old challenge system.

In this guide, we’ll show you how the new punchcards work, along with a list of the new challenges for each character. Here are the new Fortnite season 8 punchcards.

What are punchcards?

Instead of a new list of challenges that appear automatically each week, you now need to visit specific characters to gain access to the latest objectives. These characters present their challenges in the form of punchcards, featuring five objectives that range in difficulty (and scale to give you more XP for each subsequent quest). For example, the starting quest is always worth 12K XP, while the fifth one gives you 20K XP.

To trigger a questline, you need to manually visit each character on the map. Within the punchcard menu, you can navigate to a specific character to select them, and their location will appear on the map. Then, within a real match, you can find them and talk to them to initiate the questline. You can then track the quest within the punchcard menu.

Completing character quests earns you progress toward your daily and weekly punchcards. For instance, one of the early daily challenges is for completing three of Madcap’s quests. The weekly challenges are a bit tougher, such as placing in the top 10 alongside your friends in five different matches. We expect the quests to evolve and expand over time, just like the challenges from previous seasons. Within the game, it says “more punchcards coming soon,” and the rollout has been weekly thus far.

Everything new in Fortnite Ballistic 34.20 update
Fortnite Ballistic key art

Since its early access launch on December 11, 2024, Fortnite Ballistic, Epic Games’ daring foray into the 5v5 tactical first-person shooter genre, has established a distinctive niche within the Fortnite universe. Debuting with Chapter 6 Season 1, this mode takes cues from iconic shooters such as Counter-Strike and Valorant, setting the stage for an intense bomb-planting duel between two teams on the tightly designed Skyline 10 map.

Right out of the gate, Ballistic exploded onto the scene, momentarily eclipsing the battle royale mode with an impressive 259,000 concurrent players just hours after its launch. This surge was driven by its innovative first-person perspective and the enticing allure of Fortnite’s trademark style. Even though its player base has found a new equilibrium—non-ranked hitting a high of over 300,000 and ranked reaching 169,000—it continues to stand out as an enticing option for gamers seeking strategic complexity rather than the frenetic energy of battle royale. The mode may still be a bit rough around the edges due to its early access status, but Epic's dedication to listening to community feedback has helped it maintain its momentum.

Season 3's release coincides with the v34.20 update, which arrived today following a brief server outage, ensuring a smooth transition into the past.
