Fortnite season 5 week 8 challenges and how to complete them

Fortnite season 5, week 8 is underway, and with it comes a new set of challenges. This week, you’ll be working on farm-related challenges that are relatively simple — but you have to know where to go. Thankfully, Epic Games has fixed the challenge progression bug that was happening last week, so you’ll be good to start knocking them out this week.

In this guide, we’ll highlight all of the challenges this week, along with walkthroughs on how to complete some of the tougher ones. Here are Fortnite’s season 5, week 8 challenges.

Let’s take a quick look at the challenges for season 5, week 8 before jumping into the guides.

  • Destroy apple and tomato produce boxes at The Orchard Farmers Market (3)
  • Drive a car through the corn field at Steel Farm (1)
  • Deliver a truck to Sunflower’s Farm (1)
  • Pistol Damage (250)
  • Collect Gold Bars (500)
  • Blow up a gas pump (1)
  • Distance traveled Gliding (3,500)

We’ll only be covering the top three since the rest are self-explanatory. The nice thing is that all of the challenges that we’ll be covering in depth can be completed consecutively and are all part of the same batch. In previous weeks, there would be multiple batches of quests that tend to get confusing since you need to complete prerequisites to get to the next — but this week is much more linear.

Below, we’ll detail three of the tougher challenges for this week.

The first challenge simply requires you to destroy three apple or tomato produce boxes at The Orchard Farmers Market. The hardest part is locating the tomato boxes and the Farmers Market, itself, so check out the guide below for their locations.

Next up, you’re required to drive a vehicle through the corn field at Steel Farm. Once again, the most difficult task is to know where this area is located. It can also be tricky finding a nearby vehicle, but the guide below has everything you’ll need to know.

Finally, the toughest challenge of the group requires you to drive a truck through Sunflower’s Farm. The reason this one is tricky is because you have to use a truck, and they can be somewhat hard to find. The link below will show you how to complete it.

The rest of this week’s challenges are ones that you can simply get while playing naturally, like collecting gold bars, accumulating pistol damage, and covering distance while gliding. Even if you’re new to Fortnite, you can easily get through the rest of the quests with a squad of players.

Fortnite’s overhauled battle pass system will make your life easier
The Device event in Fortnite Chapter 2

Fortnite players will see a big change to how they gain experience starting in December. Epic Games announced Monday that it's simplifying progress so that players can earn experience toward all three battle passes at once.

This battle pass for the battle royale portion already works like this: You can earn experience to progress through the battle pass track by playing in any Fortnite section. However, this wasn't the case with the Festival and Lego passes for Fortnite Festival and Lego Fortnite, respectively. That's changing after the current seasons and passes end later this year.

All outfits in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and how to unlock them

Somewhat like Peach in Princess Peach: Showtime!, Zelda has access to a ton of different outfits in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. While they won't drastically change how she plays like her Swordfighter form does, they do give her a fresh new style and occasionally a nice buff of some sort. When you combine these with accessories and smoothies, you can do some fairly deep build crafting in this game. These new outfits can't be picked up off the rack at Hyrule's local market, though. Zelda will need to work for most of them, and there are plenty you can easily miss if you don't go out of your way to find them. Here are all the outfits you can get in Echoes of Wisdom, how to unlock them, and what buffs they grant (if any).
Every outfit in Echoes of Wisdom
There are a total of 11 outfits to find and try on in Echoes of Wisdom. Some are given as part of the main story, but most are optional.
Disguise

This simple hooded outfit is unlocked automatically during the opening of the game. It has no added benefits to wearing it.
