From tips to locations, here’s our Fortnite telescope challenge guide

Here's our guide to completing the challenge that tasks players to dance at different telescope locations for season 10, week 8 in Fortnite.

Epic Games has released the season 10, week eight missions in Fortnite: Battle Royale. Like past weekly challenges, the new ones are themed around a particular topic  — “Storm Racers”. An ode to the turbulent purple cloud that slowly closes in on the map, players will be completing objectives that have them compete with the storm. This guide will focus on helping players dance in front of some telescopes. Before we begin, here are all the other challenges available this week.

Like every week this season, there are a total of seven normal and seven prestige missions. These offer a bunch of rewards, including an exclusive cosmetic.

These telescope challenges are best done in Team Rumble or any other big team mode. This ensures that there are fewer enemies to compete with. The normal challenge can be completed across multiple matches, so take your time if you need it. When you reach a telescope, simply do your favorite dance emote and wait for a notification to appear in the top left corner of your screen. This will confirm you’ve completed the task. The prestige version of this challenge must be done in the same match, and if you’re having trouble completing it, turn on Party Assist. This will allow your teammates to help you complete them.

There are only three telescopes on the map and you have to visit all three of them.

The first telescope is found southwest of the newly formed Moisty Palms area in the desert. The exact location of this telescope is on top of the mountain in the H9 square on the grid map of the island.

The second telescope can be found in the snowy biome just southeast of Shifty Shafts and southwest of Salty Springs. It is also on a mountain, right on the border of the snowy and grassy areas. The exact location for this telescope is in the E7 square on the grid map.

The third and final telescope location is the most famous one, located near the center of the match and overlooking the volcano. You can find it on the mountain directly west of Dusty Depot. Its exact location is in the F5 square on the grid map.

Completing the normal version of the dance at different telescopes mission will grant you access to the prestige version. This version is a bit harder since you have to dance at two different telescopes in the same match. For this challenge, I recommend you dance in front of the Shifty Shafts and Dusty Depot telescopes since they are closest to one another.

The rewards you get for the week eight challenges are based solely on how many you’ve completed. Each challenge will net you 10 Battle Stars, sans the fourth challenge you complete which will get you 5,000 experience points. The seventh and final challenge will get you Gameplan epic back bling.

Imagine tapping a Zelda icon on your iPhone and jumping straight into Hyrule. A new open-source project called nxnative makes that possible by repackaging Switch games you’ve bought into apps for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with no emulator in the middle.

Why does this run so well on Apple devices?

The Call of Duty franchise has held a special place in my heart ever since I played my first Black Ops game back in 2010. That game's campaign was something else, with twists and turns that culminated in a mind-blowing finale. We can all admit that compared to those older campaigns, the recent CODs have been lackluster at best, and a complete and utter disappointment at worst. The reboot of Modern Warfare did give me some hope, as the first two installments were actually quite good, but the third game left such a bad taste in my mouth that I wasn’t exactly expecting much from Modern Warfare 4.

After recently finishing the campaign, I can say that this installment is nothing like the recent releases and instead feels closer to the franchise’s roots. For the first time in a long while, the campaign comes across as well-crafted rather than rushed to hit a release date. It arrives three years after MW3, and you can see exactly where all that time went. It seems the studio finally made listening to player feedback a priority.

Epic Games has just announced the 2026 Epic AI MegaJam, which is looking to see how much game development can be squeezed into a very short window. This is running from November 12 through November 15.

Participants can work alone or in teams of up to five people, build in Unreal Engine or Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and bring along “as many AI agents as you want.” Epic explicitly encourages coding agents, AI-generated assets, audio tools, writing tools, and other AI systems. The official event page literally says "Vibe your way to $50k.”
