Fortnite Season 8: Week 4 Challenges and Unlocking the Secret Banner
Fortnite’s fourth set of weekly challenges for Season 8 is now available. To complete these challenges, players will need to utilize The Baller and Pirate Cannons, eliminate opponents, and visit specific named locations.
Players who own the Season 8 Battle Pass and have finished four different sets of weekly challenges will unlock a new loading screen. This loading screen contains a hidden clue that reveals the location of a secret banner. Once found, players can pick up this banner and unlock it for use in their profile.
Requirements to Find the Secret Banner
To find the secret banner, players must meet certain requirements. They must own the Battle Pass and have completed any four weeks of challenges in Season 8. The secret banner can only be found in Solo, Duos, Squads, or Limited Time Modes. It cannot be obtained in other modes like Playground.
If you have only unlocked four weeks of challenges, you’ll need to finish the weekly challenges from the past three weeks as well in order to see the secret banner. However, if additional weekly sets are available, completing any four of them will suffice.
Location of the Secret Banner
The loading screen provides a hint on where to find the secret banner. It depicts Peelies carrying their King Peely up the volcano northeast of the Fortnite island. In the background, you can see Sunny Steps to the left and a torch behind the Peelies to the right. The secret banner is likely hanging on the base of the volcano.
Sunny Steps serves as a great hint that players need to travel to the volcano and position themselves in a way that the area is visible. Going northeast of the volcano will provide the desired view.
There’s only one torch that matches the one shown in the loading screen image, and it can be found in front of your character. Move forward and the secret banner will start glowing. Interact with it to grab it, and it will then be available in your Locker when you return to the lobby.
