Fortnite Season 9’s Week 7 Challenges Have Leaked

Fortnite Season 9’s Week 7 challenges are due to go live tomorrow, June 20th, but you needn’t wait until then to discover the challenges that await. By now, every player of Epic Games’ battle royale is aware of the developer’s rigid update schedule, to the extent that data miners know exactly when to start their dig into the game’s files. Serial leaker FireMonkey has since surfaced from their own latest deep dive to bring those looking for a headstart the latest batch of tasks requiring completion.

In somewhat of a break from tradition, however, this week’s list doesn’t require the use of any recent additions to the sandbox. In fact, Week 7 is a largely by-the-numbers affair featuring nothing veterans haven’t seen already numerous times before. You can find the full list below, but do keep in mind that with all leaks, there’s every chance Epic could make several adjustments prior to them going live.

Free Challenges

• Search chests at Junk Junction or Neo Tilted
• Search ammo boxes in different named locations
• Suppressed Weapon Eliminations

Battle Pass Challenges

• Deal damage to opponents while riding in a vehicle
• Staged Challenge: visit two different locations in a single match
• Search a chest, use a vending machine and a campfire in a single match
• Eliminations from 5m or less

Pretty underwhelming, eh? On the plus side, there should be little need for a cheat sheet this week, though it wouldn’t hurt Epic to be a little more creative with their output. Especially when compared to earlier weeks requiring the use of Season 9’s new Slipstream system and Sky Platforms, the prerequisites to progressing further with the Battle Pass this week are simply unremarkable. It’s worth noting, however, what with a recent patch having reverted the controversial shotgun swap mechanic, that the close-range eliminations task should prove to be considerably less frustrating than it sounds.

That’s all for now, though be sure to check back with us tomorrow when Fortnite Season 9’s latest challenges go live, if only to double-check each objective. See you then!
