Week one includes three free and four premium challenges. Players will get 5,000 XP and 50 Battle Stars for completing all of them. The progressive challenges are still there and are exclusive to the premium pass.

Eliminate opponents in different Named Locations (0/5) 10 Battle Stars10 Battle Stars

Picking up items of each rarity and eliminating one player in five matches will come as you play. The first should be easy if you focus on survival and exploration, while the other is simple if you drop in a crowded area. Be the first to grab a gun and destroy your opponents.

Dancing in forbidden locations is a challenge that some players remember from previous seasons. You have to spot signs with an emote symbol and use any emote in front of it, in seven locations.

Premium challenges are a bit more demanding. You’ll have to find the crown of RV’s in the map and start unlocking the next stages. You’ll also have to roam around named locations to eliminate opponents, and remember to hit some headshots to complete one of the challenges.

Searching five Ammo Boxes in a single match is easier when you conquer an entire area. If it’s not too crowded, you will perhaps find some inside houses behind furniture.

Players who finish all week one challenges will then unlock this week’s loading screen and its secret Battle Star or banner.
