Fortnite Season 6, Week 2 challenges require diverse weapon usage.

Weekly Challenges in Fortnite: Battle Royale

Just like previous seasons, Fortnite’s sixth season introduces new challenges for both free and Battle Pass players. These challenges will be released every week, allowing players to earn XP and Battle Stars to level up their Battle Pass.

While the challenges for week two of season six may not be too difficult, they will likely require a few games to complete.

This week’s free challenges mainly focus on two new elements added to Fortnite in season six. Players will need to visit all seven Corrupted Areas, which are located where the cube created runes during season five. Additionally, they must use one of the recently re-enabled Shadow Stones in three different games.

The final free challenge for this week is a progressive one. The first stage requires players to deal 200 damage with standard Assault Rifles. The second stage involves dealing the same amount of damage with Burst Assault Rifles. Finally, players must deal 200 damage with Silenced Assault Rifles in the last stage.

Battle Pass Challenges

SMG Eliminations (3)10 Battle Stars, 1,000 XP
Stage 1: Deal damage with Hunting Rifles to opponents (200)3 Battle Stars, 300 XP

Unlike previous weeks, the Battle Pass challenges for this week don’t require players to travel all over the map or perform complicated tasks. Instead, they need to use a variety of weapons to complete them.

Eliminating an opponent from at least 50 meters away coincides with the progressive challenge. The first stage of this challenge asks players to deal 200 damage with Hunting Rifles. Then, they must deal the same amount of damage with Bolt-Action Sniper Rifles in the second stage. Finally, in the last stage, players need to deal 200 damage with Heavy Sniper Rifles.

To complete the Battle Pass challenges, players also need to deal 500 damage with any pistol and eliminate three opponents using submachine guns. While these challenges may not be too difficult, it might take several matches to find the necessary weapons and achieve the required damage and kills.
