It’s time for more weekly challenges in Fortnite: Battle Royale, even if today’s are coming a little bit later for some reason. The batch for this week is pretty straightforward, so there shouldn’t be too much to worry about: mostly I’m excited to tool around in a hamster ball, which the game does ask us to do this week. But you might need a little guidance on one, which asks you to search under the magnifying glass on the treasure map loading screen. Read on for a map, guide and location for how to complete that challenge.
This one is a lot like the old treasure map challenges that left back in Season 6 but with a big twist. In the old ones, you had to hunt for the map somewhere on the island, but here you get it as part of the battle pass. You get it at Tier 10, so it shouldn’t take too much doing to unlock, even if you’re not necessarily there yet. Let’s take a look at what we’re working with:
So, not so bad there. We’re clearly looking in the snow biome down in the southwest, and we’re hunting for a ring of trees not too far from Polar Peak. Astute observers will have noticed some changes with that location already that season, and so it was just a matter of time before we were sent down that way. Here’s what that location looks like on the in-game map:
Very straightforward. We’re going right to the southwest of Polar Peak, where you can easily see a ring of trees from the map or the air. Once you get on the ground, you’ll notice that the location itself is a little more done up than the usual patch of dirt where we find this sort of thing:
And here’s what it looks like on the ground. You’re going to want to go right up to the pedestal with the frozen Raven on top: he’s the fellow with the hood. The battle star is sitting right there.
It’s the Frozen Legends, which we might remember as a skin bundle from the Christmas season, here preserved in all their legendary glory. I get the feeling that the Frozen Legends mostly existed so that Epic had something to put on store shelves to be purchased and thrown into stockings, so presumably, the statues are here to commemorate a giant Q4 revenue infusion.
