Fortnite developer Epic Games has always had a bit of a leaky ship when it comes to the wildly popular battle royale title. As a result of that, Epic has seen fit to take action against leakers by sending a cease-and-desist order to one of the most popular leak accounts. This doesn’t seem to be chasing off would-be leakers, though, as the season 7 week 3 challenges have also leaked online.
Even though these are not set to go live in the game until December 20, 2018, Fortnite players are getting their first glimpse at the challenges early. Now, as always, leaks should be taken with an appropriate dosage of salt because they could be inaccurate, Epic could change them, or they could even be delayed prior to their in-game addition. It’s even possible and somewhat likely that some of these challenges are placeholders, as Epic tends to try to hide some of the more spoiler-y challenges as often as it can. Check out the leaked challenges below:
Free Challenges
- Ride a Zipline in 5 different matches – 5 Battle Stars Stage 1: Land at Lonely Lodge – 1 Battle Star Stage 2: Land at Pleasant Park – 1 Battle Star Stage 3: Land at Lucky Landing – 1 Battle Star Stage 4: Land at Lazy Links – 1 Battle Star Final Stage: Land at Tilted Towers – 1 Battle Star Legendary weapon eliminations (HARD) – 10 Battle Stars
Battle Pass Challenges
- Deal 500 damage with Pistols to opponents – 5 Battle Stars Ring the doorbell of a house with an opponent inside in 3 different matches – 5 Battle Stars 3 SMG Eliminations (HARD) – 10 Battle Stars 3 Pistol Eliminations – 10 Battle Stars
For the most part, these challenges fit the formula and seem rather run-of-0f-the-mill. The zipline challenge makes sense with the addition of the winter biome, and the landing challenge that diverts away from said biome also fits the mold of challenges spreading the action further across the battle island. Considering the Fortnite season 7 week 2 challenges saw the return of the sheet music challenge, the returning doorbell challenge also makes sense.
- Stage 2: Land at Pleasant Park – 1 Battle Star Stage 3: Land at Lucky Landing – 1 Battle Star Stage 4: Land at Lazy Links – 1 Battle Star Final Stage: Land at Tilted Towers – 1 Battle Star
That’s not to say this leak is without scruple, however. The double Pistol and SMG elimination challenges seem out of place, but until next week, it’s hard to say what will or won’t come out of these challenges. Nevertheless, be sure to check back here for Fortnite guides once the season 7 week 3 challenges go live next week.
Fortnite is out now in early access for Android, iOS, PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
