Fortnite Confirms Major Battle Pass Changes in Chapter 6
Fortnite Season 4: No More Punchcard Quests
In a major shake-up for the popular battle royale game, Fortnite has announced that it will be eliminating punchcard quests from its Battle Pass system starting in Chapter 6. This change is part of an effort to streamline the game's progression system and make it more accessible to new players.
Punchcard quests were introduced in Chapter 2, Season 5, and have been a staple of the Battle Pass system ever since. These quests required players to complete a series of challenges in order to earn rewards, such as experience points, cosmetic items, and V-Bucks.
While punchcard quests were popular with some players, they were also criticized for being too grindy and time-consuming. Many players felt that they had to spend too much time completing quests in order to level up their Battle Pass and earn rewards.
New Weekly Quests System
In place of punchcard quests, Fortnite will be introducing a new weekly quests system. These quests will be more straightforward and easier to complete, and they will reward players with experience points and Battle Stars.
Battle Stars can be used to unlock rewards from the Battle Pass, including cosmetic items, V-Bucks, and new gameplay features. The new weekly quests system is designed to make it easier for players to progress through the Battle Pass and earn rewards.
Other Battle Pass Changes
In addition to eliminating punchcard quests, Fortnite is also making other changes to its Battle Pass system in Chapter 6. These changes include:
- The Battle Pass will now be divided into 100 tiers, up from 100 tiers in previous seasons.
- The cost of the Battle Pass will remain the same at 950 V-Bucks.
- Players will now earn Battle Stars for completing daily and weekly quests, as well as for completing challenges in Creative mode.
- Players will be able to purchase Battle Pass tiers with V-Bucks, but the cost will increase as they progress through the Pass.
These changes are designed to make the Battle Pass system more rewarding and accessible to players of all skill levels.
Conclusion
The changes to the Battle Pass system in Chapter 6 are a major shake-up for Fortnite. The elimination of punchcard quests and the introduction of a new weekly quests system are designed to make the game more accessible and rewarding for players.
