Week 3 of Fortnite has rolled into town along with all new challenges. Have you been having fun with the new Baller and Vending Machines? We were expecting to see these new additions involved in the challenges this time around, but no dice. Below you can all of the Season 8, Week 3 challenges and a guide on where to find the location under the magnifying glass on the treasure map.
We’ll post the challenges each week when they go live, so be sure to follow our blog! If you’re looking for previous challenges, you can find them here:

As usual, some of the challenges this week are for Battle Pass owners only. You can get yourself a Battle Pass with 950 V-Bucks (Fortnite’s in-game currency). We have a way for you to get discounted V-Bucks by using the cards available in the Top-Ups section of our webstore. Or you can get V-Bucks directly for Xbox One and PS4. Follow those links if you want to save yourself some money.
Finding the Treasure Map from the loading screen will be really easy with the map we’ve provided for you below (in addition to a short guide). Check it out, and let us know in the comments if you have any questions!

Search Where the Magnifying Glass Sits on the Treasure Map Loading Screen
You won’t be able to view the treasure map loading screen unless you: 1. Own a Battle Pass, and 2. Have reached Tier 10 to unlock it. If you want to save money on a Battle Pass, check out this link.
If you haven’t see the loading screen in-game yet, you can view an image of it above. As you can see, the magnifying class is indicating a circle of trees in the southwestern part of the map (the snowy part). We’ve marked its location for you.
Once you’re there, you’ll see a statue in the middle of the ring of trees. Sitting on the statue will be a shiny Battle Star.
