Fortnite Season 6: Discovering the Location of the Corrupted Areas

Fortnite Season 6 Week 2 Challenges: Visit Corrupted Areas

Fortnite players are familiar with visiting certain map areas to complete challenges, but in season six, week two, the stakes are higher.

This week, one of the free challenges requires players to visit each of the Corrupted Areas in Fortnite. These areas were created where the cube previously burned runes into the ground during season five.

By visiting these Corrupted Areas, players can also complete another free challenge: using the recently re-enabled Shadow Stones in three different games. Plus, the Corrupted Areas are known to have a few chest spawns, making them great spots for loot.

Here are the seven Corrupted Areas in Fortnite season six:
