The Fortnite quests have received a complete reset for the start of the new season, and there are a couple of significant changes to be aware of. The Kickstart quests are back to guide you through the fresh locations and mechanics, while the Milestones quests have returned to the battle royale mode to provide more ongoing targets to hit. Importantly, you can now track multiple quests by tagging them through the menu, meaning you can place markers for more than one task on the map to help you tick them off as you go. In addition to the challenges connected to the main battle royale, there are certain quests that are exclusive to Fortnite OG and Fortnite Reload, so expand your horizons to ensure you're maximizing the XP available.

As always, there's plenty more going on outside of the battle royale as well, so make sure you check out the separate experiences of Lego Fortnite, Rocket Racing, and Fortnite Festival to see what else is available. Don't overlook these assignments, as they provide a significant amount of additional XP during Fortnite Season 2 of Chapter 6 to speed up your progress through the Battle Pass. There are Story quests again now we're back to a full length season, plus you have the Godzilla and Expertise quests, regular Daily quests, and classic Weekly quests to provide plenty of different options.

The Week 0 quests involve collecting 800 Bars while inside of a Bank Vault, so you'll need to grab some Thermite and start cracking those doors open, and while you're in those areas you can work on dealing 500 damage to bosses and collecting 10 Boons or Medallions as well. Speak to two separate NPCS to receive gifts from two Characters in a single match, and if you're struggling to eliminate three opponents outside of Named Locations then Team Rumble mode can help you out with that.

There are certain Fortnite quests that will get ticked off through natural gameplay and don't require attention, but we're here to help with the ones that need specific knowledge or actions to clear. Completing quests is a lot easier these days now we no longer rely on Fortnite characters to distribute them, so if you want to know what you need to do for that sweet XP boost, then check out the quests section of the main menu – or the pause menu – and you'll find them all clearly laid out, with the option to track your progress on specific challenges. Keep completing quests and you'll earn massive amounts of XP across the entire Fortnite season so you can unlock fresh rewards – and who doesn't want that? Here's everything we know about the latest Fortnite quests.
