The best way to complete every Fortnitemares quest

It’s the spookiest time of the year, so here’s a helpful Fortnitemares quest guide for those looking to celebrate in-game.

Fortnitemares is almost as old as Fortnite itself, debuting during Chapter 2 Season 1 in 2017. This year’s celebration not only boasts new quests, but also a wide variety of new Halloween-themed skins and a Lego Fortnite battle pass. Players will have a lot to keep themselves busy with if they hope to collect all of the new Fortnitemares items in time.

With the in-game event lasting until November 2, here’s how to complete each of the major Fortnitemares quests before the next mini season rolls out.
