Released on August 30, the weekly challenges follow the norm that has been set throughout Season 5 so far, with three being free for anybody to attempt and four being exclusive to Battle Pass owners.

The three “HARD” challenges for Week 8 require you to pick up four shotgun eliminations, search for a Battle Pass star “between three different oversized seats” and yet another challenge that is broken into separate stages.

The stage challenge for Week 7 asked players to open chests in various locations around the map and the Week 8 challenge is following in those footsteps, but with eliminations as the objective.

You will earn a total of three Battle Pass stars per stage completed, beginning with eliminations in Greasy Grove before moving on to Lonely Lodge and then finishing off in Fatal Fields.
