Introduction

Fortnite fans, get ready for another round of thrilling updates as the latest patch notes have arrived! Week 6 of Wargames kicks off with Quantum Countdown, where a bomb teleports throughout your base, and the relentless Husks will stop at nothing to destroy it. It’s a challenge that will test your quick thinking and even quicker movements as you strive to protect your fort.

WARGAMES WEEK 6: QUANTUM COUNTDOWN

Week 6 of Wargames begins Wednesday, March 1, 2023, at 7pm ET. A bomb is teleporting all throughout your base and the Husks will be trying their hardest to destroy it. This Wargames Challenge will require fast thinking and even faster moving Commanders.

WARGAMES WEEK 7: SHORTCUT

Wargames’ Week 7 begins Wednesday, March 8, 2023, at 7pm ET. Teleporting Husks may be a-door-able, but their elements? Not so much. In Shortcut, Strange doors will appear near the enemy spawners. When Husks get near one of these doors, they’ll be teleported to one of the exit doors closer to your fort. Beware! Husks that travel through these doors gain elemental effects.
