Survive the Horde - Final Challenge Weeks

Fortnite Survive The Horde Png

New to Survive the Horde? Check out the v24.30 Homebase Status Report for a full introduction to the gameplay and Quest rewards. v25.00 contains the final to survive the Horde Challenge Weeks. Upon completion, Challenge Weeks grant extra cosmetic rewards and Battle Royale Battle Pass XP!

Challenge Week 6 - Unflappable Husks (June 9 - June 14)

The Horde has become unstoppable, ignoring all crowd control effects. Try and avoid their attacks as they now leave a lingering damage effect when they successfully hit you! To help you out, your Sniper, Assault Rifle, SMG, Shotgun, and Pistol damage have been increased, and Traps have become more lethal. Use your newfound power to keep the Horde at bay!

Challenge Week 7 - Fast Forward (June 14  - June 21)

The waves of enemies are coming faster than ever. This means you’ll have less time to build and gather Supply Drops. But don’t let intimidation slow you down — move fast and get things done in this race against time to Survive the Horde.
