As with any leak, there’s no guarantee that Epic Games will actually use these, as the developers have been known to change certain challenges before they become available in game.
If Epic Games choose to use these, players will be doing a lot of travelling around the island, as they’ll need to visit Shifty Shafts or Lonely Lodge to search for chests, and will also need to visit a number of different locations to complete the final Battle Pass challenge.
The challenges are expected to go live on January 24, and we’ll have a full guide with all the best tips and tricks to help you earn those Battle Stars.
