Every veteran Fortnite player knows the drill by now. As a new week dawns, new Fortnite summer challenges leak. The Week 8 batch releases on Wednesday, July 28. But, thanks to the work of data miners, both the Epic and Legendary Quests are public knowledge.
Epic Games hasn’t fiddled with the formula much this season. The challenges usually release on Thursday of each week and the total earnable XP adds up to close to 400,000. The Epic Quests contain seven challenges while the Legendary Quests house six much harder tasks. Both sets will take players some time to complete but the process can be expedited by knowing what lies ahead in Week 8.
The Week 8 challenges in Fortnite
The Legendary Quests are a bit more difficult to complete but can be more rewarding. The second challenge on the list rewards the player with 45,000 XP, which is offset by the first only rewarding 15,000 XP.
On the other side of the challenges, the Epic Quests aren’t tough in the slightest. As long as players pay attention to the list, they can complete most of the challenges in a couple of matches. Below, players can review the two lists for themselves.
