Week 7 of the Snowfall challenge in Fortnite Battle Royale sees everyone’s favorite secret Battle Star return once once again, meaning a free free Battle Pass tier is available, whether you’re playing on PC, PS4, Xbox One or any other platform.

The Snowfall challenge is an ongoing bonus challenge that will run throughout Season 7. If players complete enough of the challenges before the end of the season, they will be rewarded with the mystery Snowfall skin, which should be revealed within the next few weeks.

The challenge is much like the Hunting Party challenge from Season 6 (or the Road Trip and Blockbuster challenges from seasons gone by) – players that complete all of a week’s standard challenges will unlock a loading screen that contains a hint for where to find a hidden Battle Star or Banner.

The loading screen for the seventh week of the season was actually leaked after the v7.20 patch on January 15, meaning we already had a very good idea of where you would need to look in order to complete the Snowfall challenge when it went live on January 17.

The Snowfall loading screen for Week 7 of Season 7 can be found below. We’ve highlighted the hint for you:

The throne room of Polar Peak will be your destination

This clue means that the Battle Star can be found at Polar Peak, one of the icy locations that was added to the map after the v7.00 update at the start of the season.

The exact location is next to the Ice King’s throne inside the main room of the castle. We’ve marked the spot on the map below for you:

Polar Peak has been one of the most popular additions to Fortnite’s map in Season 7.

Once you’ve completed all seven of the standard challenges for Week 7, the Snowfall challenge will be unlocked and the Banner should be available for collection.

The Week 7 challenges went live at 14:00 GMT (09:00 EST, 06:00 PST) on January 17. You can find the full list of challenges, and guides on how to complete them, by visiting our Week 7, Season 7 Fortnite challenges hub.
