The latest Fortnite update, v23.50, has arrived, and with it comes a new set of quests for loopers to complete in order to get free rewards before the season ends. This replaces the Most Wanted questline, which also offers cosmetics as a reward for completing certain tasks.

Players can now take on Find it in Fortnite Quests, which involve completing tasks within the Creative game mode. Completing these will grant a substantial amount of XP that will aid players to level up their Battle Pass quicker and gain access to bonus rewards if they haven't already done so.

Once you have accomplished all the tasks within the questline, you will be able to claim your complimentary cosmetic rewards. This includes a banner, spray, and the Check the Map emote, which was declared victorious in Fortnite Emote Royale 2022.

Surviving the zombie apocalypse in Deadpines: Zombie Survival can be a challenge. Players must battle hordes of undead with limited weaponry and resources, but as they gain points, they can upgrade their arsenal to become more powerful and better equipped to take on zombies. This will help them complete their quest with greater ease.

To complete the quest faster, follow these steps:

1) Open the Quests tab to check the amount of zombies you need to destroy

Head to the Quests tab and locate the Find it in Fortnite questline. Scroll down until you come across the Deadpines: Zombie Survival challenge, which requires you to destroy 500 zombies. Once completed, it will reward you 20,000 XP.

To access the game island, click on the View Experience button, which will bring up a window within the game.

When you first enter the Creative map, you'll be placed in front of an entrance to the abandoned town swarming with zombies. At the beginning of your journey, you will be presented with two gates. The right one is designed to help you complete the game quickly by providing a speedrun approach. Sprint towards the gate and go through it to start your quest.


4) Use your weapon to shoot at zombies

Begin your Fortnite quest by arming yourself with the Marksman Revolver that you have been given. Take aim at the zombies and fire away, earning coins for each one you eliminate. You can use these coins to purchase power ups, weapons, and vehicles, which will help you advance in the game more quickly.


5) Loot an OG Bear vehicle from the garage and drive it

Head to the garage near the gas station and find an OG Bear vehicle. Make sure it has enough fuel and health, get inside the driver's seat, and drive away while eliminating any zombies that get in your way.


6) Keep driving over the zombies to complete the quest faster

If you want to complete the Fortnite quest of destroying 500 zombies, using the OG Bear vehicle is your best bet. This will save you time and energy as all you have to do is ram the enemies that get in your way.

Keep an eye on your car's health and fuel levels so it doesn't run out while doing this. Once 500 zombies are eliminated, a progress bar will appear notifying you that the challenge has been completed, granting 20,000 Fortnite XP as a reward.
