The new season also features a new Battle Pass with over 100 rewards to unlock, including Lara Croft from Tomb Raider, DC’s Raven, and football mega-star Neymar Jr.

Also with every new season comes new challenges, here are the Season 6 week 1 challenges!

Challenges are normally released every Thursday at 10am EST/2pm GMT. With the new season beginning on Tuesday we got them early, but expect future weeks to be on a Thursday.

But be fast, Legendary Quests are only around until the next set of challenges go live and then they are gone forever.

Season 6 is currently scheduled to last until June 8th, which means we can expect around 12 weeks of challenges before the season is over.

However, with the Fortnite X Batman comic series beginning in April, and the fact it directly ties into Season 6, the season may be extended until July 2021.
