Fortnite Overtime challenges: How to complete them and unlock new cosmetics
Graphics: Epic GamesThe wait for Fortnite Battle Royale‘s Overtime challenges is finally over as Epic Games have released the final set of tasks for Season 8, with some amazing rewards up for grabs – including new skin styles, increased XP, and more.
The Overtime challenges tend to commence near the end of each Fortnite season but have come slightly later this time around, meaning that there are slightly less tasks for players to grind their way through than in Season 7.
There are a total of nine challenges, three of which are exclusive to Season 8 Battle Pass owners and the completion of each will result in three new outfits, for some very popular skins included in the bundle. Subscribers will have the chance to unlock new looks for Sidewinder, Ember, and Master Key.
Epic Games has introduced some incredible skins during Fortnite Season 8.As mentioned earlier, with Season 9 on the horizon, players are not going to have a whole lot of time to pace their way through these challenges.
The new season is expected to kick off on May 9 and if we’ve learned anything from Fortnite since its September 2017 release, it’s that we should expect a whole lot of new content to land around that time.
