Players can get in the summertime spirit a little early with the latest Fortnite weekly quests. A unique beach-themed questline begins by prompting fans to build special sandcastles. Quests such as this present the opportunity to earn huge amounts of XP for the current battle pass. It's important to take advantage of quests in order to get the coolest rewards and skins in Fortnite. This guide will help gamers find exactly where to build special sandcastles for the new Season 6 challenge.
There is one important thing to note about the building special sandcastles quest. While using materials to build and interact with structures is a core gameplay mechanic in Fortnite, players will not need to use any materials to build sandcastles for this challenge. This means that it's possible to drop to a beach straight off the battle bus and immediately build sandcastles without doing any extra gathering. Anyone who knows where to find the specific building locations can complete this weekly objective within the first thirty seconds of a match.
It might be wise for questing beach-goers to take some precautions, though. While the challenge to build special sandcastles is a quick and easy one, it can also be a surefire way to be eliminated very early in a match. Many players will be populating the beaches as they work on the new weekly objectives. The safest way to complete the quest is to scavenge for weapons, or wait until later in the match when most players will have cleared away from the beaches. That being said, it could be a great opportunity to complete the Damage Opponent Within 10 Seconds of Landing quest for those who haven't finished it yet.
Where to Build Special Sandcastles in Fortnite Season 6 Week 10
The obvious locations for building sandcastles are the beaches along the edge of the island. A couple of examples are highlighted on the map above. The beach north of Dirty Docks and the beach southwest of Holly Hedges are both great places to go.
On the beach, players will see three hologram-like outlines of sandcastles at various points near the shore. The quest calls for three sandcastles to be built, so it's a simple matter of interacting with all three holograms on a beach. After interacting with three locations, the quest will be considered complete and the player will earn 24k XP for their battle pass.
The whimsical challenge to build sandcastles might inspire fans to enjoy more summer-themed activities. Fortnite is enabling gamers to celebrate summer early with its Creative Summer Callout Contest. While most players prefer battle royale, this event could be a perfect opportunity to try out another popular game mode. There will be plenty of questing action to return to after some well-deserved rest and relaxation.
Fortnite is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
