To get started, here’s what you need to know about the very first week of Season 5:
Free Challenges
- Deal damage with SMGs to opponents (500)
- Search a Supply Llama (1)
- Clinger, Stink Bomb or Grenade Eliminations (3) (HARD)
Battle Pass Challenges
- Search Chests in Snobby Shores (7)
- Search floating Lightning Bolts (7)
- Follow the treasure map found in Risky Reels (1) (HARD)
- Eliminate opponents in Retail Row (3) (HARD)
Non-Battle Pass owners can work on getting those top three challenges complete, while Battle Pass members have the chance to take on all seven. Some are easy – search a llama, take out enemy players in Retail Row, even searching chests in Snobby Shores is pretty go-with-the-flow.
The challenges do require a Battle Pass membership, which is required to participate, here’s what you need to do:
100 tiers, 100 rewards. The more you play, the more you unlock. Level up faster and do it on your own schedule. Weekly Challenges give you the flexibility to make progress whenever you can play. Available for 950 V-Bucks.
There’s also the Battle Bundle that includes access to the Battle Pass and instantly unlocks your next 25 tiers, all at a 40% discount.
Play to level up your Battle Pass, unlocking up to 100 rewards worth over 22,000 V-Bucks (typically takes 75 to 150 hours of play). That’s 30 more items than last season!
