Fortnite’s season X Battle Pass takes a different approach to weekly challenges by releasing missions with tasks that grant Battle Stars, XP, and rewards upon completion. Some of these missions are only available for a limited time, however, and this new set is categorized as “Mystery” and lasts a long 22 days before the challenges leave the game.

That means players will want to get their objectives complete as fast as they can. Unlike regular 1 week limited-time missions, this one allows all objectives to be completed one after the other instead of waiting for each one to unlock per day.

The best thing about these mystery challenges are that they grant all battle stars and a free Legendary skin and back bling, The Scientist outfit.
