As with the last batch, there are 10 varied challenges to complete this week for rewards. One of the biggest ones involves visiting the Fortnite lonely recliner, radio station, and the outdoor movie theater. In this guide, we’ll break down how to find all three.

Before jumping into the locations of the three spots players need to visit, there are some key details to know. For starters, you don’t have to reach all three sites in the same match. It’s possible to divide the tasks and visit one location per game.

It’s recommended to use Team Rumble game mode, which gives more time to search for locations until the storm closes in, fewer enemies, and the ability to respawn.

Lastly, to complete the challenge as quickly as possible, the party-assist feature found in the challenges tab lets teammates help out.

It’s important to note that only visiting these spots is required. Players won’t have to dance at them like in the previous rainbow rentals challenge. All three places are marked on the map above with detailed descriptions of where to find them below.

The lonely recliner is found on the eastern side of the chapter 2 map, directly west of the named location Dirty Docks, north of Retail Row, and slightly southeast of Frenzy Farm. It is a landmark location on the island, so you should see a notification when you approach it for completing part one of this challenge.

Radio station location

The radio station is another landmark that can be found directly east of Craggy Cliffs and slightly northwest of Steamy Stacks. Like with the lonely recliner, all you need to do is head to this landmark location and get close enough for the game to notify you of completing this objective.

Outdoor movie theater location

The third and final location is the most famous of them all: The outdoor movie theater. This theater is none other than Risky Reels, previously reduced to a landmark on this island. It is found just outside of Frenzy Farm northwest of the island in the middle of the map. Visit here and you will complete this challenge.

Cameo vs. Chic challenges rewards

For every challenge completed, players get 52,000 experience, which is excellent for finishing off the battle pass.

The unique reward comes from completing 9 of the 10 challenges this week, which will grant you the gold style for the Chic skin.

Fortnite faces community backlash over the addition of bots in OG mode
Fortnite battle bus.

The recent launch of Fortnite OG shot the battle royale title back up the top of the charts, not that it ever really loosened the chokehold it has on the gaming community — and then the launch of the game's first-person mode further stoked the flames. One recent change is not as welcome, however. Fortnite recently shared a post on X detailing the addition of Duos mode, as well as "matchmaking improvements in all Fortnite OG playlists." That doesn't sound like a red flag ... until you read the comment section of the post.

Fortnite OG playlists just received bots, and players are taking that change about as well as they took the addition of No Build mode. In other words, it created a heck of a lot of controversy. The new bots aren't overly aggressive, and therein lies the issue: They present no challenge. Player complaints are that the bots move slowly, make decisions that get them killed, and much more, according to PCGamesN.

Fortnite is finally getting a first-person mode next week
Key art for Fortnite's new first person shooter mode Ballistic.

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.
