[GameSpot] - Fortnite High Octane Event Challenges And Rocket League Rewards

[343iBot]

When Epic bought Rocket League studio Psyonix, the fan dream of driving Rocket League cars inside Fortnite seemed closer to reality. Today, it is reality. After a brief stint as a Creative mode asset, Rocket League's de facto mascot battle-car, Octane, is now available in battle royale, as well as across several player-made Creative modes. Even better, there's a ton of XP and Rocket League-themed items to unlock for free. Here's the full run of challenges you can complete in-game, alongside the many cosmetics and other rewards you'll earn for your efforts.

Fortnite Rocket League challenges - High Octane event

There are 11 challenges in total, though you only need to complete eight of them to unlock all cosmetic rewards. Still, they all give XP, so it may be worth finishing off the list if you need to finish your Chapter 3, Season 4 battle pass before the Chapter 3 finale, Fracture.

Battle royale and Zero Build challenges

• Fly 100 meters continuously in an Octane - 20,000 XP
• Hit opponents while riding in an Octane (3) - 20,000 XP
• Perform a 720 front or back flip in the air with an Octane - 20,000 XP

The final eight challenges must be completed in specific Creative maps. In-game, these are prominently featured in the game's Discover tab, but we've also included each map's creative code in case you want to find it that way.
