Fortnite: How to complete Search for Buried Treasure challenge, Week 4, Season 8
Graphics from Epic GamesFortnite players looking to complete the Week 4, Season 8 challenges are going to have to search for some buried treasure across the battle royale map. Here’s how you can do it.
The fourth set of tasks, which were revealed on March 21, is a continuation of the pirate theme that has made its mark on the Fortnite map since the season began on February 28.
Players will need to find maps, locate and dig up two treasure chests for the Week 4 challenges, so we thought we should put together a quick and easy guide to help you complete this part as quick as possible.

There are tons of Buried Treasure items found across the Fortnite Battle Royale map and, for those who don’t know already, once you’ve got one in-hand, it will lead you to the location of your first treasure. Of course, with this week’s challenges you’re going to have to do this twice.
These can be found all over the map, but it could be a good idea to head over the pirate themed areas first as a starting point – such as the Pirate Camp outposts.

Once you’ve found a Buried Treasure map, it’s just a case of making your way over to the location that it directs you to in order to collect your loot.
The good thing about this challenge, in particular, is that the loot you will find inside the treasure chest is guaranteed to include four of Legendary rarity, which should set you up for a promising game ahead.

Best of luck!
