Similar to how Jigsaw uses Billy the Puppet to test subjects, Fortnite players will be set against each other to see who is the best. Once a player approaches a TV monitor, Jigsaw will challenge them to duel another Fortnite player in front of another TV monitor on the island.

If the player or their squad defeats the opponent. then they will unlock the rewards of Jigsaw’s challenge. Successfully eliminating the target will complete Jigsaw’s Fortnite challenge. In addition, players will unlock Boom Billy, the unvaulted Witch Broom, and other loot.
