The Fortnite season 8 weekly challenges are finally here! This pirate-themed season is off to a great start as we are tasked with finding all 7 pirate camps on the map and visiting them. Here are the locations of all of the camps you need to visit to earn your reward.
Pirates camps are invading Fortnite as the new season 8 update and challenges are finally here. After a couple of filler weeks that extended season seven much longer than we expected, a new season of Battle Royale has arrived — and it’s just as wild as you’d expect. The map has gone through some transformations, and while it is by no means as crazy of an overhaul as the map update we got in season seven, it still changes up quite a few things.
The season 8 Battle Royale map is the most varied it’s ever been, and this will affect how players will approach some of the new weekly challenges. The challenges this week aren’t super hard but they will help players get accustomed to the new map and prepare for what’s in store this season.
There are a total of seven new challenges for players to enjoy this week in Battle Royale. Most of them will task you with finding new locations and monuments around the changed map. If you’re looking to see all of the week one challenges available this week, be sure to head to the Battle Royale lobby and tab over to the revamped challenges tab.
Or, you could alternatively look at our screenshot above for some of the challenges available this week. Three of the seven are available for all players, regardless of whether or not you have the new season Battle Pass. On the other hand, four of the seven are exclusive to Battle Pass owners.
Thankfully, though, getting a free Battle Pass wasn’t super hard to do with the overtime challenges from last season. But, if you missed out on the overtime challenges, you can still follow along with this guide since the biggest challenge we’re covering this week is a free one.
The biggest challenge this week is to visit 7 pirate camps, and if you’ve taken a look around, you’ll notice that pirates have indeed landed on the island and are using this opportunity to invade the place. Before diving in, it’s important to note that there is a new volcanic area taking the place of Wailing Woods and Lazy Links has turned into a Lazy Lagoon.
The pirates have built a total of seven camps around the map and can be found everywhere, including the snowy areas and at the base of the new volcano.
