Dance inside a holographic Tomato head challenge tips

As we mentioned, this challenge has a three stages. This means you won’t be able to see the next stage of the challenge until you finish the first stage and leave that specific match. You also won’t be able to complete the following stage if you haven’t completed the previous one either.

We recommend you complete this challenge in Fortnite’s Team Rumble mode as you’ll have more time to do it, more teammates to help you out, fewer enemies to worry about, and respawns. Since this is a multi-stage challenge, there is only one thing you need to do in each match and it will take you at least three matches to complete.

This is a good thing, though, since all you need to do is make sure you land near the area where the tomato and other big heads are located. If you want an extra boost to easily finish this challenge, we recommend turning on the Party Assist mode that allows you and your teammates to complete the challenge together.

When you first jump into a new match, head for the middle of Mega Mall. Mega Mall, for those who don’t know, is one of the new named locations that was added with the launch of season nine after the volcano wiped out Retail Row. It’s a massive mall full of various shopping areas including a giant holographic tomato head.

Now, the actual holographic tomato head is located at the top of Mega Mall, so you will need to either climb the stairs to the roof area or simply build yourself a ramp up there. When you get to the top, you will want to look for the giant holographic tomato head on the eastern edge of the rooftop as seen in our screenshot above.

Keep in mind is that you must dance inside of the holographic tomato head in order for the first part of this challenge to complete. Dancing in front of it or next to it will not complete the challenge. Unfortunately, it is floating in the air above the rest of the mall, so you will need to build yourself a ramp up to it so that you can dance inside of it. Use your favorite dance emote and you will know you’ve done it correctly when you get a notification in the top left corner.

Once you complete the first part of this challenge, all you need to do is leave the match early or finish it. Either way, when you leave, you will get a notification for the second stage of the challenge. This second stage is similar to the first, but this time we need to dance inside a holographic Durr Burger head.

Head for Neo Tilted, another area that was destroyed and rebuilt at the beginning of season nine. The exact location of the Durr Burger head is on the southern end of Neo Tilted. You’ll have to look high up for it, as it’s at the very top of one of the highest buildings in the city.

You will need to build yourself a way up there or climb the building to the top. Once there, dance and you should get the notification again in the top left corner of your screen.

After leaving the second match, you will get the notification for the third and final stage of this season nine, week four challenge. The final part of this challenge tasks you with dancing on top of the giant dumpling head. To do this, you will need to enter a third and final match, and this time, land in or near Lucky Landing.

On the northwestern end of town, there is a building with a giant smirking dumpling on it. What makes it different from the previous two is that it’s a solid object and not a hologram. You will need to either land on top of it or build yourself up to the top of it and dance there. Doing this will notify you that you’ve completed this challenge.

Where to find the secret cave in Fortnite

Every time Fortnite changes up the map, it becomes a whole new experience when checking out the new points of interest (POIs) and best places to land. With chapter 5 bringing some of the most dramatic changes in the map's history, a ton of secrets are out there on the island waiting to be discovered, such as a very lucrative cave. Those who have managed to wander into this hidden alcove have been rewarded with a huge stash of loot, making it a well-guarded secret among those in the know. We can't guarantee you'll survive long enough to grab all the valuables inside, but knowing where the secret cave is will at least give you and your squad a fighting chance.

The secret cave is tucked along the eastern coast of the map to the northeast of Hazeyhills and southeast of Grand Glacier as seen on the map above.

Fortnite Reality Augments: full list and how to use them
Fortnite Zero Builds key art.

Every new chapter of Fortnite is a massive event. While seasonal changes bring plenty of minor tweaks and additions, it's almost always when a new chapter rolls around that major overhauls or new mechanics are introduced. Fortnite Chapter 4 was no exception, and aside from the extreme changes the island underwent, it brought one very important change to gameplay that makes a huge difference when going for that elusive victory royal (it isn't easy to win Fortnite, after all).

Augments, well, augment the game. There are a few challenges that somewhat introduce what these are, but they leave out almost all the important details for you to find out on your own. Augments need to be considered, and deeply understood, not only for when you get them yourself but to know what new tricks your opponents could have up their sleeves. Before you get taken by surprise, here's a complete breakdown of how to unlock augments and how they work in Fortnite.
What are augments in Fortnite?
Augments, or Reality Augments, are a new perk system introduced into Fortnite. There are currently 20 augments in the game, but there are 32 total that cycle in and out with each Season. You can get access to multiple augments during a single match, but augments do not carry over after a match is finished, whether you win or lose. These perks can range from modifying certain weapon types to granting buffs for performing actions, and much more. There are no bad augments, so you will want to get as many as possible. Augments also have their own tab in your menu where you can see which ones you've had so far to track your progress using them all.
