Fortnite The Nindo Challenges (2022): How to redeem free glider, wrap, emoticon, and more

The second Naruto collaboration with Fortnite has gone live. Given how popular the first one was back in Chapter 2 Season 8, not having another would be a loss. Also, more characters mean more money for Epic Games and more player outfit choices.

While these have to be bought from the Item Shop with V-Bucks, there are a few that players can earn free of cost. However, it won't be as simple as clicking on an icon and obtaining them. A bit of legwork and some elbow grease will have to be implemented. With that being said, here's how to get bonus rewards.

Fortnite Nindo Challenges explained

Like last time, players must sign up to a website to get the ball rolling. Once done, they'll have to complete a series of tasks/challenges to earn rewards. Here are the steps needed to start with:

With the basics out of the way, it's time to talk about potential rewards. Even though they aren't as great as the Item Shop cosmetics, it'll be fun to get them.

With the rewards out of the way, it's time to discuss the four paths and how to earn badges. Remember that these will have to be completed in Squad Mode to progress. With that being said, here's everything to know about each path:

Each path will have eight stages to unlock, which means a total of 64 badges will have to be earned to unlock the final reward. This may take a very long time to complete and even before the challenges have gone live, the community is already lashing out at Epic Games.

The community is not happy with the challenges

If the XP grind of Chapter 3 Season 3 wasn't bad enough, earning free Fortnite Naruto cosmetics is now a hellish ordeal. According to the community, what Epic Games asks players to do to earn them is nothing short of pure and utter ludicrousy.

For instance, to earn one Hinata badge, players have to catch 20 fish. Assuming this task has to be repeated eight times to complete the path, that's 160 fish that have to be caught. That's the easiest path in the challenge.

The ones involving eliminations and 5 top-6 finishes are barely possible for average players. What makes this worse is that the challenges are limited to Squads only. Players who enjoy the solo mode will be left high and dry. Here's what a few fans have to say:

Rather than Fortnite Nindo challenges offering something new for the community to do, it's making them work for free cosmetics. Not to mention that the challenges are likely to be time-bound. Hopefully, Epic Games will find a solution to these unrealistic targets and expectations.
