Fortnite challenge guide: Visit Scenic Spot, Gorgeous Gorge, and Mount Kay

The latest Fortnite challenges are live for season 5, week 12, giving you more ways to earn XP. After you’ve completed the first stage of this week’s new set of challenges (for dealing damage within 15 seconds of gliding), you’ll be able to start stage 2. Remember, with season 5, most of the challenges come in stages, meaning you have to complete them in order, preventing you from cherry picking which challenges you complete.

Stage 2 requires you to simply visit three locations: Scenic Spot, Gorgeous Gorge, and Mount Kay. In this guide, we’ll show you where to find all three and we’ll include tips to make this challenge as easy as possible. Here’s how to visit Scenic Spot, Gorgeous Gorge, and Mount Kay in Fortnite.

How to visit Scenic Spot, Gorgeous Gorge, and Mount Kay

Fortnite.gg

Above is a map featuring the locations of all three spots (thanks, Fortnite.gg). For best results, we recommend to boot up a Team Rumble match since you can respawn when you die. Then, work your way from south to north, as the storm will overtake the spots on the outer edges first. Once you get credit for visiting one spot, jump off a high surface so you can respawn in the air. After you do, glide as close as you can to the next location, and so on.

Here’s a better look at where to land for each location.

Remember, you can visit each spot in any order — but as we recommended above, it’s best to go from south to north to avoid getting hit by the storm. With that in mind, the first place you should visit is Mount Kay. It’s the huge snowy mountain to the south of Catty Corner. Simply land on the peak and you’ll gain credit for visiting the location.

Next up is Gorgeous Gorge. This spot is found by the waterfall to the northeast of Hunter’s Haven. As long as you’re within 100 meters or so of the waterfall, you’ll get credit.

Finally, take a trip to Scenic Spot, a location found to the northwest of Colossal Coliseum. You’ll find a telescope here, indicating you’re in the right location.

After you’ve visited all three (in any order), you’ll complete the challenge and gain 20,000 XP. If you go from south to north, you’ll be able to hit all three locations within one Team Rumble match. Otherwise, it might take you multiple matches since the storm eats up the outer edges first. Either way, visit all three to finish this easy challenge — even if it takes you multiple matches.

Fortnite is finally getting a first-person mode next week

Fortnite Ballistic, the long-awaited first-person mode for Epic Games' hit battle royale shooter Fortnite, will finally come to the game on December 11.

Epic Games first teased a first-person Fortnite mode in March, but now we have a clearer idea of how it will play. Ballistic is a round-based 5v5 mode with no respawns, similar to competitive shooters like Valorant or Spectre Divide. A team of attackers fights to plant and detonate a Rift Point Device in certain spots on the map, while defenders fight to eliminate the other team before they can do the same. While attackers and defenders will swap their roles after six rounds, Ballistic matches are a best-of-seven affair across both ranked and unranked play.

Fortnite OG isn't exactly a new mode -- it's come and gone several times before. What makes today's rollout special is that Fortnite OG is here to stay, and it's news that has delighted a lot of fans. Players have flocked back to Fortnite to play the nostalgia-riddled modes they remember.

In fact, within a mere 20 minutes of release, Fortnite OG had more than 1 million concurrent players in regular Fortnite and another 270,000 in Zero Build, Polygon reports. For context, that's about 1,822 times the maximum number of players Concord saw. Fortnite has always been a force of nature, but it has recently seen a surge of gamers like never before. As of right now, as we write this story, the game has 3,383,844 players, with its all-time high peak -- yes, of any of the previous years -- coming just five days ago with a whopping 14 million concurrent players.

Epic Games just gave Fortnite veterans the best gift: permanent OG mode

If you're a long-time Fortnite player who can't stop asking where Tilted Towers disappeared to, this update is for you. Epic is bringing back Fortnite OG -- this time, for good. The game mode will cycle through the game's first season and let players revisit their favorite locations and loot just as they remember it from way back in 2017.

And when Epic Games says it's going back, it means all the way back. The mode will initially go through the seasons of Chapter 1, including all the loot changes and feature introductions. Think of it something like a crash course in the evolution of Fortnite; you can experience it just as players did back then and learn as you go. As a veteran of those early battle royale years, I can promise it was a vastly different experience than it is now.
