Grab yourself a Battle Pass in Fortnite and you can take on a bunch of Weekly Challenges that not only give you a perfect excuse to play, but provide you with the best rewards.

There are free and upgraded (premium) versions of the Battle Pass in Season 5. The free version offers you just three challenges, while you'll have to pay the typical 950 V-Bucks to unlock the remaining four. That's approximately £7.99 / $9.99.

In this guide, we're going to briefly explain how the Battle Pass, Drift & Road Trip, and Weekly Challenges work, and detail exactly what you have to do this week to get your hands on those awesome end of season rewards.

Fortnite - What Is A Battle Pass?

A Battle Pass in Fortnite provides access to a season's worth of weekly challenges that you can complete in exchange for exclusive rewards. A season lasts 10 weeks, so that's quite a lot of bang for your buck.

Season 5 included a free Battle Pass option that provides you with three of the four Weekly Challenges. You'll now have to upgrade the Battle Pass to unlock the remaining four challenges.

To get your hands on an upgraded Battle Pass, you first have to buy (or earn) the appropriate number of V-Bucks, which is Fortnite's premium currency. The Battle Pass upgrade costs 950 V-Bucks right now, and 1,000 V-Bucks costs £7.99 / $9.99.

An upgraded Battle Pass only lasts for an entire season of Fortnite, so you will need to purchase another when the new season starts. The good news is that you can earn a total of 1,300 V-Bucks over the course of a season, provided you get to the max season level of 100. As long as you don't get tempted to spend them on consumable items, you can feasibly pay once and get enough V-Bucks each season to buy the next Battle Pass every single time.

Fortnite - How Does A Season Work?

A season of Fortnite lasts 10 weeks, and you have to earn a total of 100 Battle Pass tiers in order to get the maximum rewards. You start at tier one, and can increase in tier by completing challenges or levelling up to earn Battle Stars.

That's where the challenges come in. Complete one and you'll earn between five and 10 Battle Stars, and if you earn enough of them you'll increase in tier. You can also earn Battle Stars by increasing your season level, and by owning a Battle Pass you'll earn more XP anyway.

Get to tier 100 and the entire set of rewards is yours. This typically includes emotes, character skins, V-Bucks, XP boosts, sprays, loading screens, and harvesting tools.

Fortnite - What Are Drift & Road Trip Challenges?

The Drift & Road Trip Challenges replace the Carbide and Omega Challenges from Season 4 of Fortnite. Each of them provides cosmetic upgrades for the Drift and Ragnarok outfits respectively.
