Fortnite Season 9, Week 3 Challenges | Full List, How to Get the Flying Disc, Fortbyte 16 Map and Location

Week 3 challenges

You’re going to see a lot of ballers on the map this week, and no, we’re not talking about the vehicle from Season 8. Week 3 challenges of Fortnite Season 9 brings an all-new collaboration with Nike’s Jordan brand sneakers, allowing you to unlock new cosmetics and buy the Hang Time Bundle in the Fortnite store. Pick up some discounted V-Bucks to cop the new loot for yourself.

In addition, “Hot Spots” have been introduced this week– which means random locations on the map will have high loot rate and increased Supply Drops!

You can read more about what’s been added in the latest patch here. But for now, let’s talk about the week 3 challenges, how to solve them, and where you can find the latest Fortbyte for your collection.

We post the challenges each week when they go live, so be sure to follow our blog! If you’re looking for last week’s challenges, you can find them here:

Let’s start by knocking out this new Fortbyte location. If you don’t know what these new collectible items are or what they’re for, you can read all about them in our blog post here.

Fortbyte #16 is located in the desert biome in the southeast corner of the island. Specifically, the chip can be found in the so-called “house with too many chairs” to the south of Paradise Palms. We’ve marked the location on the map above.

Week 3 Challenges List

Lace up your new Jordan’s cause we’re going for a ride! The challenges this week will have you doing the usual searching for chests and visiting named locations, and they’ll also give you a chance to take many of the game’s new vehicles for a spin. And, to top it all off, we get to play with a new toy!

The flying disc challenge can be a little tricky if you don’t know where to find it, so we have a guide for that below. The rest you can handle simply by playing the game, but let us know in the comments if you have any questions.

How to Get the Flying Disc and Throw/Catch It Before It Lands

Flying Disc Toy in Week 3 Challenges

To complete this challenge you’re going to need a Battle Pass. Why? Because the Flying Disc unlocks at Tier 35. Once you’ve unlocked this fun toy, however, the rest of the challenge is easy!

Select the Flying Disc from your emote menu and then throw it nearly straight up to make following on the ground it a lot easier. If you’re worried about someone shooting at you while you play with your new toy, you can even complete this challenge in the game lobby while you wait for the Battle Bus!
