As always, we recommend taking a look at the challenges for the week so you have a good idea of what you need to do. Many of them are easy and can be obtained by playing naturally, but others require a bit more effort.

The full list of new challenges are as follows:

  • Craft a mechanical bow, a mechanical explosive bow, and a mechanical shockwave Bow.
  • Tame a boar.
  • Deal damage with mechanical weapons.
  • Deal explosive damage to opponents.
  • Ride different zip lines.
  • Obtain literature samples from Pleasant Park, Lazy Lake, or Retail Row.

As you can see, the toughest ones are for crafting certain bow types, taming a boar, and finding literature samples. For those, we’ll dive into how to complete them in more detail below.

There’s a prerequisite you must complete before attempting this one. First, you need to ride five zip lines, which is easily done at the Spire. Then, you can begin hunting for literature samples, all of which can be found in our guide on where to find literature samples in Pleasant Park, Lazy Lake, and Retail Row.

And with that, you should be well-equipped to complete the challenges for Fortnite season 6, week 2! They aren’t too bad this week — some just require a bit of planning ahead of time.

Plenty of games, especially the best free-to-play games, like to offer players special codes for in-game rewards.

Of course, as is the tradition with all the best survival games, you start off with nothing and need to scrape together every advantage you can get at the start. That is, unless you give yourself a small edge by claiming some free items with a code or two.
